But I would like to see the ability to maneuver around gentle slopes and pyramids without having to jump. I expected something like that :wink: But you're exactly righ...

1. The ability to drive up ramps and stairways. The barrel of the tank tilts up as the tank goes up the slope. 2. The ability to tilt the tank barrel up and down - say a key for move up, down, and center. To keep it from changing the gameplay, it would need to move slowly, and have a range of moment...

For linux, I think the command would be (replace foo.patch with the name of the patch)

So you can have, say 3 rabbits, 7 hunters, and the game would be great fun. Yeah, great idea! memo: gotta get a linux system set up so I have a proper ...

So I finally got it changed. took me a while to get up enough courage to pm an admin - just to find there's a field in the profile. :oops: The name the vaxorcist comes from a story in the humor section at gnu.org. The story is extremely funny, I won't post a link though - it includes several vulgari...

well there is no way to filter out bad words in written form on bzflag except silence that is.. i think if voice is ever made (i pray it will soon) then it is bound to silence text from the person aswell as voice if you decide to silence someone :) Yes, If the server is set to mask cusswords with %...

How would you filter out the bad words?

Have it so you can define your own polls, sorta like C macro's. (Any Dev's listening)

#define poll mute : mute $1

I personally just thief 'em. (MWHAHAHAH) Evil, I know, but if they TK me, well, I deserved it. :evil: I can understand RHs because you're competing with other players to kill the wabbit. Then again, I'm not too good a player, so I don't really mind if people thief me. (It still makes me mad to TK th...
