You'll host anything, even a map that doesn't fully exist yet...

Good work, it's the style of other games, town warfare etc which this game doesn't have much of.

It's amazing, actually proper learning for all us noobs raised on newer maps and flags.

It's good, but it's a bit overpowering when the middle is held. It often switches sides, but sometimes not enough. Agility is too useful, possibly add some odd window edge? I dunno.

Yeah, far more complicated maps are made in Python/Ruby/etc, this would be simple as there are easy ways to set each of the variables you want. Learn whatever you want, I doubt cmd prompt would be enough but even php would do.

Bump mapping is normally used to apply 2D to 2D to make 3D, which is possible and probably coming/already suggested. I havn't heard of bump mapping meaning 3D in this way but I know what you mean. I don't think the same ideas apply, this needs exact details on the texture, per part of a world unit o...

Just reading other people's simple maps is the best way. None of the makers are intuiative so it's not easier in a GUI, and the text is more powerful anyway.

It's part of the charm/use/sneak of it, that you don't know without seeing them.

I think it'd be more fun to have scores per server, maybe saved per day.

I think this only makes enough sense in closed source games with closed source maps, and even then barely. It can be done in one world, so why not?

edit: Did read, every flaw is fixed by the current method/possibilties.

Another problem is that with more tanks nothing on the upper sides of base will be at all safe. And make the rolling platform still useful for more than the nearest tank clockwise. And make the GM tower not too near, but still jumponable. But yeah, next time please bite, chew, swallow, then post (as...

It's free. Tbh I'd leave for another free game. It's way above average, which is why I'm still here.

Now you know how to get rid of me

It seems you can do it in Compiz.

Wow had no idea about the anaglyph, even as a word. Will get goggles.

Well you could release your old versions Ducati, and let us improve them, you'd want to add some of the stuff I've heard wanted.

Can the font be anything you have on the computer, minus the font file extension?

Yeah, works fine on a clean config, thanks.

The localset works, but not the binding. It also seems to have confused some other binds, so I'll have to work on that.

Is there a way to clear everything off the screen, more than combined v, q and w? Blast told me of noGUI, but it doesn't seem to work as localset or binded like bind Kp6 down "toggle noGui 0 1". What is known/suggested?

You can use name completion by pressing the F2 key (assuming you don't have it mapped to another function). So, you can type "/poll ban q03" and hit F2, and it will complete the name out automatically, and even include quotes if they have spaces in their name. It's not perfect, but it can...

Same, normally you judge lag by playing, if you need a definitive number like below or over 200ms, then you'd use this.

Equally so with the over toggable things like FPS.

Is some useful form of this realistic? We'd only want it, and more importantly someone will only make it, if its useful and not damaging for everyone to be running it.

Looks good. When you get to the seafloor, what opportunities are there to get back up? like a shore you can drive up?

You can strife then land, if you jump and turn just not touching one side, just before you come to the corner. People do a lot of bouncing, but I can't do it well yet.

How many textures would this need? Do objects need a licence?

Obviously at school/college, but yey I will probably get to try this as well in a month.

Neither, it's a LAN game with humans on the internet. I'd expect even smart enough bots (to jump, use pyrs, etc) on LAN/same computer to do this before they write Shakespeare.

I don't even say np when someone tks me, I wish it to be the assumed.

WG doesn't seem to move as fast as on the ground, on the same server where you can go at 90 degrees and outrun it, you can't with WG.
