Capture the Tower uses Hidendra's plugin metrics system which means it will collect information including but not always limited to a unique identifier, the server's version of Java, offline/online mode, this plugin's version, the server's version, the OS running the server, core count for the CPU, number of players online, and the Metrics version.
This can be easily disabled by editing /plugins/Plugin Metrics/config.yml and setting opt-out to true. Everything that this plugin collects can be viewed here and additional information can be found here.
Update Checks
This plugin has a feature where it will notify those with the permission ctt.update if there is an update to this plugin. It is done asynchronously. To disable, set 'update-check' to false in the plugin's main config location at /plugins/CaptureTheTower/config.yml
Game Sign
To create a sign to join a game, create the game first then place down a sign. The first line should read "[game]" and the second line should have the ID number of the game you want the sign for. Example:
