Official forums for BZFlag.org

Ok. Before saying yes to the client/server mod and incompatible with other existing and future versions/servers, I have to ask: Would it be worth it to do this/that? Last check with-in BZFlag for 2.4.* there is/are 165 servers with 27 players and 6 obses. Unsure of GCWZ0221 and other versions of bzf...

I have this ideas that not all weapons should do 100% damage. If that is possible in native code, perhaps it could be done with a plug-in. Since I am not a programmer, I have no idea of how this would done to the T in the source code / writing my own plug-in. Sure I can follow directions and get cer...

Please tell me more about the Dialog System Mockup(s). For example: I have to download the source code, these are the changes I need to make, and compile. If they are only Dialog System Mockup(s), what program do you use / how do you do that? For example used Gimp/Photo Shop and this/these option(s)...

It was a fun challenge.

For those who do not know, it would help to post a link to the discord server.

Just make a new post in the thread for that map release. As others stated, this creates a notification of an unread post, which should draw the viewers to the updated info. The ability to edit original posts to remove outdated versions of maps is a valid use case, but unfortunately is has been lost...

Zehra interesting suggestion. but no third party file hosting. I am going with the last two post in this thread (by allejo and by tainn). The map poster is to bump the thread to top. Why not use file hosting services? Old files and accounts are deleted constantly or services just shut down; so many ...

Thank you for the update.

An another thread was created on / for behalf of mappers since there is a two hour time limit on editing post.

I over heard/read in https://forums.bzflag.org/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=20144 @ahs3 Yes, currently there is a two hour limit, which hasn't changed from what I'm aware of. (See Posts? forum thread.) One thing to consider for updating map files without creating a new post, would be using a file hosting se...

I am not saying that I want one, but cool.

While at http://bzstats.strayer.de/servers/stats/?lang=en I noticed that BZFS is listed as the protocol and most of the servers on the list server ( http://my.bzflag.org/db/ ) start with BZFS, expect that there is/are some servers at rahab.fairserve.net that are listed as GCWZ0221. My question is, w...

At https://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=84733 Why are the other servers listed in the first place that a player can not connect to unless the same version? Red vs green. Note when you answer the question, be sure to exclude (not include) NewGRFs. Green vs yellow. The answer provided is Bec...

That works?

If so, for what OSs?

If for Unix/Linux, for how many (some, most)?

If not with-in BZFlag, on the a server list site - like on http://bzstats.strayer.de/servers/stats/?lang=en

To tell people what other servers exist and where the users are.

Currently in Bzflag, the list server list only servers that you can connect to.

But in for example OpenTTD, even while you can not connect to the sever - the list shows what version the server will only accept.

Why can't BZflag do the same?

Please and thanks

a) While you guys/gals provide only .exe for Windows, .zip for Mac/Apple and provide source code, OpenTTD at https://www.openttd.org/en/download-stable provides the following.. #1 Windows Downloads - exes #2 Mac/Apple - exes #3 Source Code #4 Linux Generic Binaries #5 A few specific Linux/Unix Distr...

REF = https://wiki.bzflag.org/BZAuthd * Issue one * The callsign and password are sent in clear text form to the list server and this is a risk to the users' privacy since they may use those passwords elsewhere. The auth daemon would use a public key cryptography algorithm called RSA that would effe...

Can we have the updated file?

Please and thanks

I agree too.

Are you going to release a CTF version too?

Thank you

Since they did not post a screen shot, I had to get this map up and running.

You asked for a screen shot, you got it.

As you can see it is a bunch of trees.

While reading the sample config file, it talks about groups and permissions.

How about at a Sample groups and permissions File(s) that is/are provided?

Thank you

While reading the sample config file, it talks about the Server Variables.

But it does not list all of the Server Variables and as how to the Server Variables.

How about at a Sample Server Variables File that is provided?

Thank you

Yes, those seem to be hard coded. You can change the behavior if you'd be okay with modifying the code and compiling. The actual handling of quick keys is in the doKeyPlaying function in playing.cxx and the menu text is defined in QuickKeysMenu.cxx . A simple change might just be changing the code ...

REF as it relates to Bzflag = https://wiki.bzflag.org/Quick_keys #1 Currently if I press a) ALT+F1, it is like I pressed the Start Button/Kicker. b) ALT+F2, up comes the run command. For those two REF based upon my OS, see http://www.comfsm.fm/~dleeling/tech/lubuntu-lxde-openbox-desktop-keyboard-sho...

By the way, for those who are wondering of the license, it is included within the map file.(GPLv3, if I'm not mistaken.)

Yep, confirmed.
