I made a simple map:
Code: Select all
world
size 500
end
options
+f GM{2}
-j
-set _gmAdLife 1
-set _gmTurnAngle 0.75
-set _gravity -7.5
-set _jumpVelocity 15
end
box
position 0 0 5
rotation 0
size 25 25 1
end
zone
flag GM
position 0 0 5
rotation 0
size 25 25 1
end
However, for some reason, BZFS spits out "Unable to position flags on this world." The GM flags spawn right under it in that 25x25 space but not on top of the box. Can anyone help me?

Try using "size 25 25 0" in the GM zone.

Nope, it didn't work.
(Oh, and by the way, the server is 2.0.5b5 on Windows, if that helps.)

try this:
Code: Select all
world
size 500
end
options
+f GM{2}
-j
-set _gmAdLife 1
-set _gmTurnAngle 0.75
-set _gravity -7.5
-set _jumpVelocity 15
end
box
position 0 0 5
rotation 0
size 25 25 1
end
zone
flag GM
position 0 0 6
rotation 0
size 25 25 1
end
i think what youve told it to do is out the flkags inside the box...

Already tried that.
(Didn't work. I even did that with the zone size of "25 25 0".)

You can delete your topics in this forum
Anyway, this solved about 3 of my broken maps. -fb should be on by default and there should be a -nofb.

-nofb? I use that on my Gladiators map...
I wonder what Thumper is getting, his server should be spitting out "Unable to put flag on world" continuisly.
