It's old but gold. If it could help you out we've probably chucked it in here.

Player VS Mob arena NOW OPEN!

Post by Dtman25 » 16 Aug 2011, 16:16

IT IS NOW COMPLETE, MESSAGE ME INGAME IF YOU WANT TO PLAY

Idea behind it
When you walk in, there will be 2 options, fighting or being a spectator. There is a minimum cost for fighting depending on the type of match chosen. I will primarily run the matches. The arena itself is a large room with an explosion proof floor for creeper battles. The mobs are supplied by my mobtower. Food, armor, and weapons will be provided based on how much you provided for the entry free and are yours to keep... that is if you win. There are also rounds where you provide your own armor. There are waves of 20 or so mobs at a time with several minute intermissions between waves. Prize depends on the match type and how many waves you survive.

Directions
It is located in west Fyra, at -1992,2950. There is a back entrance with 2 signs OR if you like rails:

1. Go to fyra spawn and go on the west rail.
2. Get off after the 1st tunnel (where track goes underground)
3. There will be a gravel path and a minecart station with a sign outside saying Mob Arena Station.
4. Take a minecart, it will lead you to an underwater glass tunnel. When you reach an intersection, use the switch to control your direction and then press the button to go. Take a left to get to the Mob Arena, otherwise you will end up at my house.

Structure
The arena is 21x8x23 with obsidian walls and floor making effective for battling creepers. There is an observation for spectators encompassing 3/4 of the arena. There is also a control booth where I or other staff control the gates, traps and mob release systems. There is a booth downstairs where fighters pay for their match. From there they proceed to the fighting rooms where dispensers provide food, armor, and weapons to each individual player.

Entry fee? Is there a reward? What's the food/armor/weapons that are provided?

:D

So is anyone willing to work on it for free? The free work will be small stuff like putting up information signs and such. But I do have some work that needs to be doe and I'm willing to pay them for, AKA placing around 320 obsidain blocks for blast proof floors.

Thanks! I just completed the railway to it. The arena isn't done yet but you can check it out. Take the fyra west rail and get out after the second tunnel. There is a minecart station i built right next to the rail. Take a minecart and when you come to an intersection, take a left and it will take you too the arena.

Small question. Is it always spawning mobs like a mobtower or is there some form of shut-off switch like a lever that floods it to prevent excess mob spawning?

There are multiple gates connected to the mobtower that fuels it so i can switch in on and off, aka to the arena or to the grinder.

I like the idea. I just built a less elaborate version of what you got here. I wouldn't mind checking it out, and if you can't find anyone to do the wiring, I could donate my time cause this project looks like it could be cool. You got to give the redstone, I can't be spawning redstone for this you know, but wiring isn't to hard, if no one can do it, you could also do it yourself, look at my redstone tutorial in the library if you want to know the basics. That's all you really need to know for something simple as with anyways.

It's actually all finished, wired and automated everything; gates, doors, dispensers. But thanks for your offer. We've had 3 contestants so far and they thought it was great!
