The bridges are very creative... great job, Louman.

I don't think that's possible..err

yes.. I know.. I'm a bit lazy.. I'll stick an updated version of it up now...

hmm.. seems like a great idea and an easy change..

Depends on the flags are available to you, the server settings, and your position, his/her position... A more detailed "scenario" please... Generally, you would want to attack them from behind, so that they can't turn in time to meet you...

very creative... I second RPG...

I think the hepcat SW was set that way deliberately... not by some user... I agree with you that the SW is rendered "useless" by the change.

learn C++ and start!!!

it sounds so easy...
Who was the original author of Bzedit anyway?

Grab some info from http://bzflag.org/wiki/ServerVariables I had updated with 2.0 vars some time ago... hope that helps!

RPG: I confirmed that it is a feature that has "Been around for a while"

hmm... very informational. That should be the manual for Bzflag.. with some changes, of course.

I'd say that a fair LagWarn setting should be around 850ms, but the one on my server is extended to 1500ms We should be tolerant and empathetic toward people with dialup I assume everyone in this generation had experience before...

long way in windows- schedule the running of a batch file... any other suggestions?

I'm assuming that he is trying to run a server from bzflag and apparently bzfs.exe may be missing, or somehow the server cannot start
Please be specific. i.e. OS, etc.
Right now your "question" is WAY too vague.. sorry, can't help ya.

yes.. you mean you made a "map" with bzedit check here for instructions http://www.bzflag.org/wiki/CreatingAServer

uh.. sounds a bit fancy and unnecessary. I don't think that is a good idea. waste of bandwith too. Arghh.. beat me to it

ah... no wonder.. I always thought scorch's dad was the author of pybzedit... ever since he "bragged" about it in a post

Windows 98 is stable enough to be a good bzflag server though

If you are using Windows, under the data directory in the bzflag2.0.0 folder, you will find PNG format images ex. "green_tank.png"- tank color, "red_bolt.png" shot color... that you can change to your liking. It's labeled, so it shouldn't be much of a problem. Good luck

Remember.. There is stuff above the tip of the pyramid...

ah... silly me.. forgot .. Here it is:

Since I am having difficulties hosting this map on my WinXP computer... ;) I'll just stick this up here and hope somone will pick it up... It uses no 2.0 features and just takes advantage of the server vars. and the wings flag, in fact it was made under a minute :). This idea came after having dogfi...

umm.. check out the wiki as stated earlier.. http://www.bzflag.org/wiki/CreatingAServer if you do not understand, go read a book on computers and the internet.

nice mountains in the background...

please read the newly updated server variables page at the wiki all the commands are listed there.
