welcome back rogue.

I'm not really back yet but I hope to be soon.
I'm still watching the bb but am working too much.
What year(s) were you on before?
I was just looking back in the logs and saw that I registered 4 years ago.

teleporters - information display

it would be nice to have the teleporter show the name of the map it connects to and possibly how many players are there.
Perhaps this would be optional text in the middle of the teleporter area or a separate frame above the teleporter?

A really nice way to save the output file would be to create a regulation BZW file, but surround all of the BZWorkbench generated data with metadata. Any data that is NOT normal for a BZW file is saved IN the BZW file but surrounded by #### DO NOT CHANGE ### notes. Now, if somebody were to take a BZ...

Tadd, CannonBallGuy, this is a great idea! I'll make sure to add that feature to the editor. Would making the hidden objects extremely transparent (but not invisible) work? This way, you can still know that they're there and where they are (i.e. making it easier to find them and make them opaque ag...

rendered groups

In a complex map it is rather hard to see what is part of one super-object and what is part of another, or to see what is on the 2nd floor of a building because all of the upper floors block your view. It might be handy to allow each object to belong to one of a list of groups of items. Thus one cou...

the bottom line

As I understand it now, if you want global-group and REGISTERED support from your groups table on the map, you need to have the server be public.

Could it also be

If a server config does not have a -publicaddr option, but players who have registered addresses and passwords attempt to connect to it, I think the players might show up with the '-' sign.

Support for automatic playername verification may require listing in the global server list.

some of them are on borrowed bandwidth or home bandwidth

This sounds like our public radio station in their spring membership campaign. Problem: the radio system ran short on pledges.

how much does it cost

I have pondered the idea of making a bzflag server self sufficient. I think that some bzflag hosters would be willing to commit about $50/year for a shell account. I don't really think that it would be worth more than that. The only real limitations imposed on the users would be that they could not ...

If you stack a few of these together a tank can drive under the bottom one and jump several times to climb to great heights, without wings. Attached are unix a...

bug may be fixed already then

BZFlag server 2.1.11.20070127-DEVEL-darwin8.8.0-SDL

I'm using the client from the same build.

THere was no flag involved but it did involve the tank running over a mesh face that had 'physics' to toss the tank up in the air.
