It's cool. Maybe there could be a WG so then I can get up on top of the church?

You can't send a message to their nemisis or their teammates. You can only send messages to ether: Your teammates Your nemisis A specific person Everyone The main keys are <N> (All), <M> (Team mate ), <,> (Nemisis) , and <.> (Private Message). To use these keys, press one of these keys and type in y...

It would be a good idea, but it just makes things more difficult. Also, lag interferes and just makes things weird.

Well, I'm on my computer on a Live version of Ubuntu 6.06, was downloading BZFlag in an OBLISK package. Downloaded fine. Double-clicked bzflag. An usual relocating box came, and passed fine. Then came the libgnutls.so.13. It just stood there for a second with no progress and then popped up an empty ...

Though I don't program C or C++... I do know BASIC (Just a bit and not enough to make a game).

I tried that option, though it logs everything. I just want the chat. I also want it in a custom folder (kinda like Windows Live Messeger chat logs).

I think it would be a great idea to include a logging feature in the BZFlag client because I really love to read those funny old moments (like the time that I made Rover Blaster really angry).

*Don't remember what to write next, so that's all for now*

The old map doesn't appear on the serverlist anymore. Looks like it was taken down after one day of service.

BTW I never had this problem on that server. Though I've had it at the World of Pain and that prison map.

I think I've played for about 3-4 months. I installed BZFlag 2.0.6 the day before 2.0.8 was released.

Here's lukaskalo being stuck in a wall at a old Boxy map (Version 2.0, I call it). There must be some problem with the spawn zone or something, but it's just plain weird.

P. S. I grabbed this image from my hard drive from a Linspire Live CD. Hopefully it's the same quality.

I'm going to put some definitions for BZFlag terms. It will help newbies to know what everyone's talking about. It's on BZJournal (see link in signature). If you've got anything to add on to it, go ahead. Currently, I can't seem to think of any other terms, so ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Space drops the flag, not shoot
Enter shoots
I identifies/locks GM

You can move with your mouse, fire with left click, drop flag with middle, and lock/identify with right. The rest you have to use the keyboard.

Right. I just remembered. If you are not responding to the server, you will be under "pause" mode and your flag will be up for grabs. Happens to me last year while being nr at a school computer. Noticed that my GM dropped after a sec of being nr.

Mayby try a firewall. Hardware one. It'll probably block most DoS.

Do you mind if I send you a report instead posting it here about bugs? I have a feeling Jeff (forums admin) doesn't like is and I've received a message about it. >_>

Serious bug: When "Show name" is enabled, instead of feeding BZFlag the domain and port, the program feeds BZFlag the name of the server. This will make BZFlag report a lot of errors saying that there isn't the option of the server name. For example: selecting BZFX :: Boxy War would report...

If I disconnect the Internet and press update, I'll see a .NET error with the following debug info: See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box. ************** Exception Text ************** System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to ...

Instead of search, I would rather put Browse. Also, the dialogue boxes needs to be English.

Abbreche is "break off" according to Google, so I think it's Close. And the prediction for the middle button in the update box: the Update button. Suggestions: Put the server name on the list and have an option to show the server's domain and port Put the serverliste.txt and temp.txt in th...

That explains... I didn't check any of the checkboxes! Pfft...

I did let my firewall allow the app and I also entered the location of BZFlag. It still doesn't tell me anything. I noticed is the search box says that no servers are found. Does it work on your computer?

Beginner Tips #2 is ready! Hope you'll enjoy it. I've also made new updates to the categories. Now you can easily navigate to the posts you want.

It doesn't seem to work on my computer and I've got .net Framework 2 installed. Nothing exactly displays except a empty list.

Hmm... Good point. I never thought about that before. Perhaps we should crown the best at each catagory and the overall best player the king.

Just Boxy War.
