I've started to make my own map as i run a small league at work at dinner, the map i've made is attached and if you like can use it please bear in mind its my first one
, the only prob i have is that some boxes i make cant be driven on and you get stuck. ive tried deleting them, creating from scratch, duplicating them, but its always the same, Has anyone had this before.

I looked at it and I saw Z sizes such as this
Code: Select all
box
name box_26
position 167.344711 -183.877167 54.646706
size 10.000000 197.924637 0.818888
end
When I replaced it with, say 1, there was no problem with it. I believe bzflag rounds the number after thousandths or ten thousandths. Including digits that exceed this is most likely the problem. BTW the map looks nice.

Thanks very much - worked a treat updated all to rounded figures, glad you like it - designed it using bzworkbench, the only prob with it is the teleporters dont work and you have to comment out manually the info section.

Code: Select all
teleporter
position -335.667297 -307.327484 55.307499
rotation 40.000000
size 0.250000 5.000000 20.000000
border 1.000000
end
you haven't named any of the teleporters, which is why the links appear like this
Code: Select all
link
name link_142
# from:(unknown)
# to:(unknown)
end
here's an example of two correctly linked teleporters
Code: Select all
teleporter a
position 400 0 0
size 0.125 10 10
border 1
end
teleporter b
position -400 0 0
size 0.125 10 10
border 1
end
link
from a:f*
to b:f*
end
link
from a:b*
to b:b*
end
link
from b:f*
to a:f*
end
link
from b:b*
to a:b*
end
'a' and 'b' are the names of the teleporters, while the f and b after the colon in the link object are refering to the front or back face of the teleporter.
