map macking, many questions

Post by stealth »

hi,

i made a map (u can see it on openleague.org:5180)

some questions:
i want about 60 good flags and 20 bad on it, but limit some flags on how often they may be on the map the same time (onyl 1 geno a time), and limit the flags in their shots.

additional i need the tags/code for wingsjumpcount etc

and i dont know what to do with the config file :(

and some links to useful stuff would be good too ;)

its my first map ;)

i dont know very much about that... but i wanna leanr it ;)

so long_

+f good{40} -f G{39} = 40 good flags, but max 1 geno? (40 random good flags, but max 1 geno?)

+f good{40} +f G{1} does what?

That will do 40 of EACH good flag. Most likely the server will crash or you won't be able to join. And for one geno just do +f G{1} :)

bzfx = server network run by met

You want to run Bzfs, the BZ server.

take out -publicaddr and add -q

# Tells server not to respond to "pings". This makes the server private.
-q


once you have the server running, and the terminal looks like it stopped, go to "join game" screen in your client and join this server.
server localhost
port 5154


here's a sample conf file I have used, it has many options you might not know.

Take a look at my Defender game mode concept.

Thinking is not an automatic process. A man can choose to think or to let his mind stagnate, or he can choose actively to turn against his intelligence, to evade his knowledge, to subvert his reason. If he refuses to think, he courts disaster: he cannot with impunity reject his means of perceiving reality.

Why are you using -q? I think what you want is -advertise NOBODY.
