So I played around with the editor for like 5 minutes trying to figure out the answer to your first question. I failed miserably. Sorry, I tried. :P

1. Spawn a weapon and a character, Then select the weapon by double clicking it. Then hold the ALT key and drag to either the characters hand, or the hip.


2. No way of editing the arena mod as far as I know.


3. This is a good place to look, for creating a level. viewtopic.php?f=16&t=14869

2: There is a "test_custom_level.as" under Data/Scripts/ that is used for the new Arena mode.
You can open that file with Notepad++ or the like.
There you can make changes like changing the spawned weapons or characters.
It is easy to brake things though.
You should make a backup of that file before messing around.
You can also install my Arena playground map, there i wiped everything that is not directly required for the mode and so it is more clear to folow and work with.

The file to work with there is the "playground_arena_gamemode.as"
Located at "\Data\Custom\jims\04_maps\playground_arena\Scripts\"

Have fun :D
