I wrote this for Marijima Airfield map. But, hopefully it will be useful to other maps.
Now running on Marijima's test server. "Marijima Airfield (R1.2)"

Mari,

I chatted with you on the server with your map. We were discussing about this plugin and others not working on a Linux server.

After trying it out on my computer with Linux (64-bit Gentoo), hopefully this information will help you.

When I tried to use automake, I got the following error:

Code: Select all

automake-1.10: `configure.ac' or `configure.in' is required

However, I was able to compile it with the following:

Code: Select all

g++ -fPIC -shared -I$HOME/svn/bzflag/include/ kamikaze.cpp -o kamikaze.so

At first, I could not get bzfs to load and run the plugin until I reran configure on bzflag with --enable-shared, then it worked.

I don't know how automake works, so I can't fix that, but if that server you are running your map on is not loading the plugins, then it could be that --enable-shared was missing from the configure command before running make. That would also explain why none of plugins are running.

Hope this helps.
