In this step, you specify all the server options. The cleanest way to accomplish this is to create a configuration file. Fortunately, the BZFlag installation provides you with a sample configuration file that you can modify according to your wishes. You will find this file in the directory where you installed BZFlag under a subdirectory called misc. The file is named bzfs.conf. Open bzfs.conf in a text editor (in windows, notepad will be just fine; in GNU/Linux, Unix, Debian, etc.. : vi would work nice).
Read through bzfs.conf to understand all the options. Remove the # sign on the lines corresponding to the options you want to set. Add # at the beginning of the line if you don't want that option. After you have finished your changes, you can save that file with a different name (this will be helpful if you want to run server with different configurations: just save many files with different names).
Unfortunately, I cant find "bzfs.conf" anywhere on my computer, so, I am stuck can anyone help me??
Also, do NOT use the sample configuration. It will just confuse you and you will end up with a server that doesn't run. Read the documentation (man bzfs and/or bzfs -help) and actually understand what options you are adding. Typically if you don't know what an option does, you don't need it.
And my last tip: Make your configuration file gradually. Add an option or two at a time and TEST. Then you know what option broke something. If you start out with an 80 line configuration file and it doesn't work it will be a lot harder to debug.
