Plugin

Ok, I heard that plugins are written in C, this is fine, as I know the language, but, when i open the code for other's plugins in my text editor, the code is a bunch of mixed up ASCII.

Who can understand that? And how do I write a plugin?

thanks

Plugins are written in C++(right?) as that is what the game is written in.

Are you opening the .dll (I think) or the actually plug-in source?

I opened shockWaveDeath.dll in notepad, and examined all that weird stuff

That won't work.

You need to download the bzflag source if you wish to see the plugin source.

the dll and .so files are the compiled versions of the plugins. You want the source C++ code. I would think you would know this if you knew the language.
