Schematics

🧭 Overview

ArenaLegends utilizes FastAsyncWorldEdit (FAWE) to handle map loading and pasting. Standard WorldEdit is not supported. Schematics are loaded directly from the FAWE schematic folder, ensuring high-performance pasting with minimal server lag.

📋 Naming Convention

To be recognized by the plugin, your schematics must be placed in the FAWE schematics folder and follow this strict naming format:

Type	Format	Example
Lobby	al_lobby_<name>	al_lobby_city
Arena	al_arena_<name>	al_arena_forest

Folder Path: Schematics must be located in /plugins/FastAsyncWorldEdit/schematics/.

🛠 Creating Games

Follow these steps to set up a new game map.

1. Build Your Maps: Create one lobby and one or more arenas.

2. Place Signs: Place the required [LOCATION] signs in your builds (see below).

3. Save Schematics: Use /schem save <name> (e.g., /schem save al_lobby_city).

4. Create Game: Run the command /al CREATE <id> (e.g., /al CREATE city_game).

5. Done: The plugin will automatically detect and link the al_lobby_<id> and al_arena_<id> schematics.

• Performance: FAWE handles the pasting asynchronously, but keeping maps reasonably sized is still recommended.

• Updates: You can overwrite a schematic at any time. Just reload the plugin to apply changes.

• Management: Use /al MANAGER to adjust game settings in-game.
