Some days ago I had to reinstall Bzflag and, since I was curious, I played for some time before replacing the default config file with the one I used and got used to.
I noticed that there was an arrow signaling my own team flag, in addition to the colored dot on the mousebox, as you can see in the screenshot I attached.
Then, when I replaced the .cfg file, it disappeared, and I haven't found out yet how to get it back. I'm wondering also if it's possibile to set an arrow signaling opponents' flags too, as it would be useful to spot them more easily.

Re: Default team flag signal
I'm not seeing any option to disable that in the code. It's only for CTF maps when you're on a team that has at least one team flag. And it's only for your own teams' flags.

Re: Default team flag signal
While it does not come as its own setting, the little arrow besides the one on the mousebox, happens to come as a compound setting.
To re-enable it, simply go from Options -> Display Settings and select the Quality: option and choose Experimental.
This should re-enable the arrow/marker above/on the team flag.
In addition, there is a server-side setting called _forbidMarkers setting, which disables the little indicators from ones own team flag from appearing.

Re: Default team flag signal
I changed the quality to experimental, as you wrote, and the arrow reappeared. Thank you both for your help
