In order to use them you must use -loadplugin in your BZFS configuration file or /loadplugin inside BZFlag, such as:

Code: Select all

/loadplugin /path/to/plugin.dll/so
So for a Windows computer it would be (.dll is Windows, .so is for Linux/Mac):

Code: Select all

/loadplugin C:\path\to\the\plugin\airspawn.dll
Each plugin does it's own thing, please remember this is for servers only. Clients can't use plugins.

Code: Select all

-loadplugin /plugins/airspawn.so
In your conf. (your path will be different most likely).

Also, if you have sufficient perms on the server you can use the command:

Code: Select all

/loadplugin /plugins/airspawn.so
That's the jist of it. Some plugins take parameters, also, but their proper use will most likely be documented with the plugin.

EDIT: Dangit meteroite you beat me to it. :p
Optimism is just a milder alternative to denial.

Yes, use -loadplugin. /loadplugin is for inside BZFlag.

"/loadplugin C:\bzsrv\airspawn.dll" is only for in game but -loadplugin C:\bzsrv\airspawn.dll is for the conf file
