Your videos are great, very enjoyable. Thanks for uploading them.

Thanks tankx and McSpider! I started a server correctly, and then I couldn't make another after I fixed a problem with the map. This is the code for my meshboxes: physics name JumpTop linear 200 -200 200 end meshbox name JumpTop position -195 195 0 size 5 5 0 rotation 0 shift 0 0 0 shear 0 0 0 scale...

Ok... I tried to set up a server for the map. I completely confused myself and am totally clueless. I opened bzfs and it said that it can't run a server, perhaps one is already running? Then it logged out. I couldn't type anything. I got this iBZServer application somewhere, is that of any use? I tr...

Also, how would I add genostats?

Thanks, but I got another problem.

I changed the code and tried it, and I started a server successfully (great!).

Then I quit the game and came back 7 hours or so later, and now I can't make any server for any map, even random map. It says, failed (exit=2). What do I do?

Hi, I was almost done with my map, but I was trying to add physics drivers for jumps from the corners. But they didn't work, and I realized I had to make them meshboxes. But something about the meshbox code is stopping the map from working, and I can't test it. What is wrong? I tried to run it in iB...

So what is wrong with Line 146?

position -180 -180 0

How do you do that?

Also, is there any quicker way to find, for example, Object Line 146? Or just count...

Thanks, I found the problem. Missing a spaces in the code for bases...

Soon enough I'm sure I'll run into another problem though...

Thanks, now the team flags work.

So because I can't put the map into iBZEdit without losing all of my flags and options menu, how do I test it? I put it into the worlds folder in Application Support, and couldn't start a server with it because it said failed (exit=1). How do I test the map?

Thanks Bambino, very helpful. Here is my code: # Created with iBZEdit on Wed Apr 07 07:54:01 2010 #ibzcam -140.486130 -561.022095 1.570000 -10.497296 0.009774 60.000000 #ibzwindow 33.000000 188.000000 1076.000000 807.000000 world size 200.000000 end options +r -j -set _tankSpeed 25.000000 -ms 3 -mp ...

Ok, so I just started map making. I added a base, and I can move it around and change the side, but how do I put it in a corner? Also, on radar view 1 the tanks are all way bigger than what I am used to, and so are the shots. How do I fix this? Whenever I die, my tank flies up into the air. How can ...

Thanks.

The bzfs option was blocked.

I'll add the players block, thanks.

So, I use the start server function on the menu to start a server, and put the map as Missle War 2.3 as I saved it earlier. Then I connect, and everything is good. But, I have another computer connected on ethernet through a router. There are wires connecting them. I used to be able to start a serve...

What are the flag counts of each flag for the regular MissleWar 2.3?

It does seem to put the flags in the right places, wings and sw flags go on their pads, cloaking flags go on the base, oo flags in the center...

Thanks much, both of you. Now it works! One question though, now all of the superflags are different. The wings and sw pads had no flags on them, and there were bad flags in the base. I know how to get rid of the bad flags, but how do I make the superflags arranged like they are in the regular Missl...

I went into Missle War 2.3 and did Options>SaveWorld and saved it, and it went to the BZFlag folder in Application Support, but when I tried to use it to start my own server, it said Failed (Exit=1). I checked the file, everything was there. I run Mac OS X. What do I do to make it work?

Thanks!

Thanks, found it.

Pyramid ricochet.

Now I hope to use it

First, sorry if this is the wrong place, I'm new to these forums. I was playing BZFlag in Missle War 2.3 earlier tonight, and I was on one of the towers on the way to the Geno tower (I forget which). Nemesis90123 had geno and was on the ground in front of our base, and suddenly I got hit with geno. ...
