Client-side chat filters

Post by elem3nt »

Would this be possible to implement?

In the bzflag config file, add a line like "-badwords badwordsfile.txt", and it would filter the chat only for your copy of the game. Would it be difficult to take the filter code in bzfs and transfer it to the client?

So, essentially, everyone can customize their own filter and not have to worry about having to play on one or two exclusive servers if they want to have a decent game.

This is already added.


You can set it useing the command line or put it in your bzflag configure file.


(I deleted it because it lagged my slow computer up... so i can't tell you what the thing you put in the config file is)
