Press the 0 key to reset the filter to show all servers. Nods head in agreement and adds an important po...

Because something not being designed for a purpose does not mean that it later strictly cannot fill that purpose. Bzflag evolved into a game played over the internet, albeit the design remains the way it was prior to it. Just like on the Internet, it was all designed with trusting everyone ( This i...

BZFlag was not designed to be played over the internet. Strange/odd. If you what you say is true, then why at https://www.bzflag.org/getting-started/ does it says BZFlag allows players to register their name, also known as their callsign. Some servers provide additional benefits for registered user...

While waiting for the OP to reply, I think I know the right answer.

Points to General Discussion -> CTF as a sole focus

Very cool. Keep up the good work.

Using http://www.bzstats.strayer.de/ AND OR https://bzlist.net/ I saw #1 at Online Players for bzadmin that, that client is on bzfs.tuxee.net:5152, 5153, 5155 and 5156. #2 and I found out who owns those servers. Server owner is cods (REF at these forums = https://forums.bzflag.org/memberlist.php?mod...

Very cool. Are you that cute?

So...

..should it be removed/killed off?
..server admins should stop using it. if they have not already?

Hmm interesting.

Ok.

The plug-in should be fixed.

In the meantime while waiting for a fix I suggest either not using the plugin or telling users to make sure that they are dead before leaving the server if they intend to rejoin.

Please and thank you.

Likewise why does one need to use F5 to take a screenshot?

Please and thank you.

Oh rats, thank you.

REFs https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.bzflag.BZFlag https://flatpak.org/setup/Ubuntu/ I tried to do that. While it worked and there is sound, but there is an issue I got version 2.4.18 instead of the most recent version. Unless I did something wrong, please fix this please. Please and thank you

Ok.

#1 How do I know it is a bug with the version of SDL2 is packaged with my Lubuntu?

#1 Does the version string show -SDL or -SDL2 at the end? While I know how to get the version, how do I get that string to show?

I downloaded and Compiled the source code but one issue. No sound at all.

At Settings -> Audio Settings, it reports back for sound volume Unavailable.

Also please tell me if you need the output from the commands that is/are used to make from source code.

Please and thank you.

Thanks looks good.

I will submit any missing plug-ins.

#1 See https://wiki.bzflag.org/Public_Server where it says Verifying a Public Server and to where it clearly says As long as you are not seeing "private" server anywhere, you should be broadcasting to the world. This may not necessarily mean it is passing your firewall. #2 See https://wiki...
