One thing too, is sometimes you'll get UDP kicked.(Mobile carriers seem to sometimes block UDP.) The real issue is the IP mismatch, since it prevents global authentication from working.(You'll get auth for one IP, but wind up connecting as another.) According to Git commits in one branch, Tim is wor...

I like the idea. Any suggestions for what happens if overtime passes without a cap? Or do we simply have it leave a draw?

@ChickenParmer: In addition to what lep says: I'd recommend using /report too due to the way logging works, it is fairly easy for server owners to view chat logs of any incidents. (If related to chat specific abuse.) But also, it allows reports to be made relating to players or things to look out fo...

Recommending this thread be moved to the leagues united forum section.

Farewell my friend, I wish good times would not come to an end. In BZFlag, you watched and observed over us, had fun matches with us, but sadly no longer are with us. A day we dread, sadness felt, although it may not have been said, it could no longer be seen, when you would play for your favourite ...

Before anyone else comments on this, this topic has already been covered in various forms. First of all: Any server, regardless of how popular it has been, tends to become relatively obscure when it is made to verified/registered only: See most recent posts in bzstats.strayer.de - yet another stats ...

Nice, you might want to bridge it with Matrix.

Shockwave occurs on death, but only when you are holding the flag. Any players who die are kills awarded to you. (Teammates don't count and their score is fixed to prevent team kills.)

When a timed game is started, the first team to cap wins the game. (This only tends to be useful where it's difficult to cap the flag. Short timed game sessions tend to work well with this too. More of a game play experiment, if anything.) License is CC0-1.0 Download available here: github.com/Zehra...

My apologies. Repo should be public now.

Seer has its own _radarLimit value known as _seerRadar which lets _radarLimit be adjusted for Seer specifically and not with other flags. (Custom radar values per flag has been seen before in Radar custom flag plug-in and RadarBU which grants Burrow a custom radar range.) Note: For Linux servers onl...

Timed matches can now benefit from not having the game go on while other players may wish to pause the game. Lack of notification/notice does not matter, as players are paused in their positions too. Players simply need to either pause or type /pause to pause a game. To resume a game, players need t...

A player grabs the other team's flag captures their flag and dies, but does not lose score. (Useful for Capture the Base style of games.)

Players can't grab their own teams flags. Mainly an experiment at attempting to speed up CTF play. (I may later attempt a game play experiment based on this.)

Plug-in resets team flag player is holding when player is about to make a self-cap, but switches it with the team flag of the base it was about to be capped on and triggers a flag cap. Note: This may have a few bugs with high lag/jitter players. License is CC0-1.0 Download available here: github.com...

It's one of the oldest. Oldest subject to debate/interpretation. Very likely contender for oldest in type/class though.

Player self-caps are +1 win/kill in score. (Same as regular caps.) Note: player flags are switched and high lag/jitter may cause issues with flag switching for proper caps. (Plug-in has a few measures to try to prevent/mitigate this.) License is CC0-1.0. Download available here: github.com/Zehra/Poi...

Simple plug-in: kills all players on flag captures, players don't get negative scores due to being killed on cap.

While normally simply an idea, this plug-in enables giving a custom radar range with a custom flag known as RADAR .

Burrow has it where the radar range is simply not possible to adjust/change. This plug-in allows you to give Burrow its own radar range. (This plug-in is a fork of my own "RADAR" flag plug-in which lets radar be used on No-Radar maps while holding the flag.) Useful for making Burrow a more...

CTF has had many versions/modifications and variations made: ArenaCTF requires where your team flag is safe in order to capture. AcceleratedCTF prevents moving your own team flags to accelerate the game. Capture the Base is reaching a base point to capture the flag. We have not yet had a version of ...
