Re: Best Map Software

Notepad, GEdit, whatever Mac uses - I prefer an extremely minimal text editor. Make sure you understand bzfs, though - you'll screw up if you don't have a local test server running. Trust me. Checkout Smultron. It's pretty awesome. Someone also wrote a syntax highlighter for bzw worlds. It's around...

Re: Rank

For example, I have made quite a few sizable contributions to the project. I'm involved in the community, help people out, etc.

Which is why I was 'promoted' to Sergeant Major ;)

Re: 2010 Collaborator - Final Decisions

Some people mentioned that to me after I sent the giant PMs for licensing permissions. If it's really necessary, I can send out another PM. However, I think it would just be an annoyance then.

As for the players, maybe just max players 200? Also, it's not 160 with 40 per team, it's 200 (Observers).

Re: A logo, or something like that

I don't personally like Optic's skins nor think they would look good in this case.

If you're not using the default textures, at least use Winny's: http://static.bzextreme.com/winny-bzflag-textures.zip

He's replacing a part of sigonasr2's section that was just a camping spot with death walls.

Re: Sphaghetti Interchange

Those we're easy because they were one physics driver, one object, one direction.

This roadway map would require thousands of physics drivers -- which frankly doesn't seem realistic.
