This is a mapside/clientside (correct me if
im wring) issue, mac and windows users can also get stuck, It has to do with the physics of the game. NOT your OS it can also happen on maps other than "The Two Tanks"

Welcome to the Bzflag community

hope to see you around

As AVM said, best way is to get Above him a good couple units.

2 units or less it is near impossible to kill either of you, if that's the case, drop to the ground and hunt him about 2 minutes later, if you want techniques, learn your own, they will work better than trying out written ones

well The two tanks is a CTF, believe it or not, with laser sniping implemented into it.

Yes, i meant to have more options, but the poll didn't Work out right, and i couldn't fix it

Or you could read the tutorials.
There are some labyrinth type maps already out there

a recent one would be the pac-man map, try and search for labyrinth as well.

Perhaps you should try to add to the discussion instead of bashing people on the head about how they write, if you want to redesign the paragraph, then go ahead. :| :| :| Or maybe you could at least says if your for or against it. I, personally am against it but there are some exceptions I mean SW o...

Well, at the moment, I can't get past the ./autogen.sh

And on other compiles i get this error after ./configure

configure:configure: WARNING: `missing' script is too old or missing

Automake-1.9.6

Libtool--1.5.22

Autoconf-2.61

What are you talking about CBG? Have you ever even played that map in question? It is a plug-in that they die when they go to the edge of the map at sea.

And if you go off the edge of map you die for "you were lost at sea" or something like that, just a nice plugin

I know a lot of you like flags and all, but in a CTF, when flags are added, it tends to become more FFA like. Some exceptions are Viper and the two tanks But even then, most people are trying to get the highest score, not the most captured flags Your thoughts? Should we Have more no-flag CTF? Should...

No the Water does not kill you if you land on it.

I didn't even mention IRC had a buddy list...I was referring to the post before me...

have you, at any point installed the dev tools?

Hey, I've been working with BinarySpike to compile 2.11.x on my computer Mac OS X 10.2.8 All of dev tools installed and upgraded automake autoconf and libtool as well as glibtool I have already run ./autogen.sh and ./configure but when i make it it gets this error Last login: Thu Feb 1 21:42:53 on t...

Yeah, there is IRC, what if your buddy isn't on IRC while he's playing BZFLAG? I think he means an in-game friendlist

that is a great idea, -wonders why i didn't think of it-

And (i've posted this b4)

you can test it without running it on a server, just use -bzfs and -solo

I'd like to help as well

Things That also need to be covered


Leagues-
FAQ about playing-
Techniques-
And others

to be continued...

Well Rank doesn't really matter now, does it?

You area more skilled mapmaker than most in the BZFlag community, because most of us don't even make maps

That is an EXCELLENT map for a first timer

Congrats!

Sometimes I wonder if the 3D aspects of the game even matter , except in a few instances. I often feel like I'm playing a 2D game in the lower left hand corner of my screen, and just getting a little extra info from the rest of the real estate. These are just a few things that indicate Radar might ...

That's not what i mean...I meant that mod...ing the radar would not be very good for the game, as most like it how it is.

I'm pretty sure most of us are going to disagree with you
But it is what makes bzflag good.

Most of us can't use radar to rico off pyramids, as †hey show up as boxes in the current mode


There are many other factors against and for your argument.

But i think most of us like the radar how it is

Well, still very nice, What program?

WoW Very Very nice renders What program on earth allowed you to do that last one in 10 min.? I'd like to know

Congratulations, [note i even took the time to spell it fully]

Looks VERY Promising considering that its a CTF, if it was FFA, it wouldn't work out, I'm still not sure it would be playable, but if it isn't We [someone] could fix it.
