I agree. Bloodbath seems to have all the newbs/ noobs who either (a): Don't get how to play, but don't ask, and (b) jump in front of you WHILE you are firing lasers, and yell at you for tking them.

Hogwarts Castle would be fun. you could have WW's firing now and then. (Put a faulty wand somewhere!). Perhaps some underground place, where you could infiltrate without a teleporter.

Flag: RPG? (And short range and long range and slow reload)

I've been thinking about a flag that might not take much to do. It is simply a guided missile, with a shorter range, that explodes with a shockwave (small) at the moment of impact (or when it's range runs out) It would be: (RpG): This flag tracks targets, exploding in a blast radius. Short range And...

A tip would be too pretend you don't even have it. Play normally. That way, you won't go nuts with stress.

If you're on windows, open command prompt (in accessories). Then, if you put BZFlag in the normal place, type: cd C:\Program Files\BZFlag2.0.8 If not, just type the address after cd Next, type: bzfs.exe -world (Name of map).bzw After that, open BZFlag.

Well, there is already something like this. There's a MoFo server, in which you start with useless, then gain flag power as you kill enemy tanks.

It works.
It's almost done. I guess I should try and put textures on.
BUT THE GM'S STILL WONT SPAWN IN THE AIR!
Here's the code

Code: Select all

zone
size 30 30 10
pos 0 0 200
zoneflag GM 10
end
I don't get it. The flags should be on a platform 100 meters off the ground, but they skip it and go to the bottom

Iv'e tried entering this to load the config file and the map, so it configs the map to the settings:

(After the cd C:\ thing)

Code: Select all

bzfs.exe -conf bzfs.conf bzfs.exe -world 3.bzw.
Of course, that doesn't work. What I want is to have the things like -password, -a, and stuff like that on the localhost

The correct setting for adding jumping is -j In regards to the config builder, it's just a web page. It doesn't save anything you put into it. If you want a list of all the options you can pass to bzfs, open the BZFS Manual from the start menu. I mean that it doesn't put that in the final config or...

Thanks. Ill try it. I thought it might be different from local to public, so I didn't try that.

EDIT: It doesn't work. The config builder seems to have forgotten all the flag settings I had, and bzfs doesn't see the file when I do -conf. Where is the map options?

Hi, everyone.
I finally got my localhost to work, so I can work on my new map more. The idea is you have four zones or "quadrants". Each team owns one. Its pretty basic atm. Here's some screenshots and the map code:

Not very helpful Anyways, I don't know about setting jumping, ricochet, and flags. Probably because I use BZEdit. To run your server, first enter this in command prompt cd C:\Program Files\BZFlag2.0.8 (Assuming you installed it in the normal place. If not so, enter the path of it ) Then, type bzfs....

Finally.
Instead of a mile of gibberish, It just had the "set the acceleration limit.". I joined the server successfully.


Now, I need to figure out how to set the shot limit,jumping on\off, game mode (The bases were just boxes), etc.
