I don't like the background texture but the idea is great (tank icons and usage of bzflag-related keywords).

Re: CMS IM could used for bzflag

The idea of a CMS for all leagues isn't new. JeffM (just to say one name) tries to encourage everyone to participate (or initiate) the work on a social oriented CMS for league stuff. As you can see there is nothing working already. Beside human lazyness there are several issues/aspects to handle: a)...

Re: BZFlag campaign mode idea...

In some strange SVN sub directory (bzflag/trunk/pybzflag/extra_media) I found two blender model files that should contain what you were looking for.

Re: bzstats.strayer.de - yet another stats site...

I have to agree with what learner wrote and joevano's experience shows that too. So think about restricting player access (because there already exists at least one plug-in to check for obvious cheating and swearing). However, if you want to see how much player activity you would lose for your serve...

Re: Frequent name changes

Well, since the callsign update happens once a day only, there is indeed much time to change the own callsign several times meanwhile (o: like "sniper15" for bambino...yes, I'm aware of some other of your callsigns...even if not all 17 :o). The collection doesn't include league internal ca...

Re: Frequent name changes

As supplement to Constitution's "GU Player Tracker" I can offer something similar for BZBB users. Since 1vs1 League requires global registered and auth. players for official matches I was looking for a way to keep players' callsigns somehow up-to-date on the 1vs1 website. I don't want to b...

Re: lua script notes

The current...latest Lua implementation came not that early, indeed. Unfortunately, Lua seemed to be a real break-through with the potential to be usable for eye-catching effects on server maps and client-view. Now, the Lua implementation will have to wait for the next minor version (major.minor.pat...

I think this would only be possible, if GU switched to an auto-report system, similar to the 1vs1 league. What happens then to all the fun matches played? They are reported also? And how about for the random times that some newbies start a countdown? Forget about these questions because there are m...

I see it like dexter...and want to add my two cents (greetings to catay ^^)... a) When you add a match by hand you have to make sure it's uncomplicated for those who report and those who enter it. So you have to reduce the information to a minimum (as dexter mentioned). b) If you want to increase in...

You are talking about cross-server-chat. As you might know this is a project idea for GSoC'09 . You can see that it has no high priority status. So, if you want to have it for 3.0 or as plug-in someone has to be willing to implement it. (You could be "someone".) Check the forum and/or ask ...
