Teleporters on a map

Post by ducatiwannabe »

Ok, I can NOT get my collaborator corner map corner's teleporters to work. I tried renaming it, redoing the links, everything. Could somebody please help?
It is openable in BZEdit.

This map was created a good while ago, and my links worked then: http://shellshock.bzflag.bz/tmf-collaborator.html

Thanks.

He found the link after he posted it, and didn't edit it. You must think outside the time system created by the posts.....

It looks right in bzedit, but no matter if I host it on my test server or anything else it doesn't work on mine.

Post your config file.
The map file seems to be complete.
Did you leave some teleporters without link ?

EDIT: Some Teleporters don't work, if they're directly in/over a block.

Example: a Box (10 10 10)
and a Teleporter (10 0.125 10)

They are too near to each other, so if you're driving in a Teleporter linked to that one above, your tank drives against a small wall.

I don't use a conf file...I just use

options
settings
end

in the bzw file. It should have the settings in the file I posted.

Maybe it'll work again, I'll try later.
