JoFBall is an upgraded version of Kyleball (original idea by ZantuS) where two teams contest for the ball by using their saber to score goals. 

JoFBall is a popular event for the JKA clan ‘Jedi of Freedom’. Events are regularly held on the {JoF}Public Server. JoF members have the privilege to participate in the yearly JoFBall tournaments and have a chance to compete for the Striker title.

The {JoF}Ball.pk3 is a bundle consisting of the following maps:

JoFBall
JoFBall_tournament
JoFBall_skillgames

‘JoFBall’ is the first custom map and upgrade for the original Kyleball. This map features a central hub with teleports leading to 3 unique maps. Each map is different in size and has a different theme. Arena should be played 3v3, Streets 4v4 and Stadium 6v6. 

‘JoFBall_tournament’ features a central hub with teleports leading to three identical Arena’s. In comparison to its predecessor, the arena has an upgraded look, substitution area (dug-out) and spectator room. 
Thanks to built-in triggers (admin room), the host can simultaneously initiate the start/stop of a round across all three arena’s. In addition to this, in-game messages are displayed for players to keep track of time.

‘JoFBall skillgames’ is a map which focuses on individual improvement presented in a set of fun and challenging minigames. Thanks to built-in triggers, the map allows repetitive practice in the core mechanics such as passing, shooting and keeping.
Each minigame is supported with a tutorial and there is a distinction between basic and advanced to make sure everyone, regardless of skill, can play.

JoFBall is designed to run on any JA+ server and requires the below server settings to work as intended.
