Arena Builder Wizard

Creating an arena is a multi-step process:

1. Run /ranked admin arena create <id> to start the wizard.
2. Stand at the first player’s spawn and run /ranked admin arena setpos1.
3. Stand at the second player’s spawn and run /ranked admin arena setpos2.
4. Stand at the spectator vantage point and run /ranked admin arena setspectator.
5. Run /ranked admin arena done to save.

Tip

If you mess up, /ranked admin arena cancel aborts the wizard without saving anything.

See Arenas for the full configuration reference.
