Options - Putting in flags

Post by Ragzouken »

Code: Select all

options
	-fb -sb
	-f OO -f BU -f PZ
	-sl SW 5
end
My map won't actually start with any flags, but +f good will add in all flags and -f OO -f BU -f PZ won't do anything at all, how am I supposed to add flags in a way that -f OO etc will work?

is there a specific place you want them or just scattered
if you want everything i think you can do


options
+f good
+f bad
end



that would give you all good and bad flags.

if you want to add a few specific flags then do this:
for example:

options
+f GM {10}
end


that adds 10 gm flags

-f {good|bad|flag-id}
Disallows random flags of the given type. Required
flags given by the +f option are still provided. The
bad argument is equivalent to specifying -f once for
each kind of bad flag. Same goes for good, but you
probably do not want to do that.

this is what the bzfs man page says about -f


if thats not what you were looking for just tell us what you are trying to do


I hope that helps

Use +s and -s in conjunction with -f.

" -s num-flags The server will have up to num-flags random super flags
available at any time. The -f option can be used to
restrict which types of flags will be added. Required
flags given by the +f option are not included in the
num-flags total."
thats what the man says......what would that do?

Well, +s 10 will give 10 random flags.
To stop, for example, OO appearing, use -f OO too.
So:
+s 10
-f OO

As CannonBallGuy said, I need to use +s to get flags instead of +f good, the description of +s is add superflags which I thought meant laser, shockwave and GM, but seems to mean flags in general.

Super flags are the white flags. When you say "flags", that could include team flags too...
