Love the tails on the bullets. Just jumped from May to latest code, lots of fun stuff. I don't know if my configuration specifically was causing the crash, but this fixes it (erase returns the iter after listIt, so effectively already incremented for you). I assume this is fine for such a small chan...

well, ran autogen.sh as root to get it to copy files it should have anyway. If only I could erase this whole thread to hide my foolishness from the world

Anyway, svn revision 18775 successfully built on Kubuntu Intrepid

Well, maybe reading the README is recommended :) Appended is the output of my failed autogen.sh call. Thanks for any help...

I upgraded my linux box to Kubuntu 8.10 beta and it looks like they've bumped the version of libtool they are using to 2.2, which doesn't seem to work with the mainline of bzflag. Unfortunately, I'm not wise in the ways of libtool. Could someone give me a hand? thanks /bin/bash ../../libtool --silen...

great! good enough for me. I may go back to daytime primarily, but for now the light cast by bullets is too cool.

thanks

I love it, but I usually play at lunch and the end of the workday. What's the easiest was force my server to always show night-time. I was thinking I could modify the timezone bzfs thinks its running in, but before I look that up, I thought I'd see if there was another option I might be missing. tha...

good idea. but I'm a low maintenance sorta admin. I was mainly looking to see if this is expected behavior. Thanks for the alternative.

So, I've been using the powerup plugin for a while on linux w/ 2.0.4 quite happily, but its causing crashes now that I've moved to a WinXP server on 2.0.8.

I wanted to see if there was a new version before I start trying to debug it.

Thanks

It's not a huge deal, I'd just like to have the time limit tied to actual players, like it is when not a public server.

duh. Thanks.

I'm running bzfs on winXP, and I'm getting duplicate entries in the public server list, one for my publicaddr setting, and one with my hostname.

So, I decided to put my server up on the public list to get some outside talent besides my coworkers and I. We run with seven minute games (helps remind us to get back to work after a game or two). The problem I have is that it appears that the public list's querying of the system causes the timer t...

A coworker of mine has a very odd side effect recently from playing BZFlag (we're currently using 2.0.4, server linux, client Windows XP). After playing BZ, he can no longer access Outlook or any of our network shares that are authenticated on the company domain, he can't even access Outlook Web Acc...

Well, if I wrote the tool, it would be with bz code, and I'd submit it, and now you'd have picky players all over the world doing the same thing. Perhaps a better plan would be to make website which on the backend would occasionally log in and get detailed information. Then people could look for inf...

So, if I was really desperate, I'd need to connect to all sites with Jumping and check for the setting? Which would of course trigger scorn and get me added to ban lists across the world.

I love _shotsKeepVerticalVelocity. Playing without it drives me crazy. I've done some searching, but I don't see anything on this subject. Is there a way to search for sites with some setting activated? I'd guess there are people who feel similarly about other settings. Is this even reported for the...

I want to be able to use the weapon until I kill someone, and then have the weapon removed.

I've made a plugin we enjoy on our work server. Here's the README.txt We play short 7 minute FFA games, max player score of 7. In a situation like that, someone getting and keeping a flag like GM or L can just ruin things. So, this plugin steals your flag after you kill someone, unless your score is...
