Do you just want the map to look like a monopoly board, or do you want players to play as if they were playing monopoly? If it is the former, I am all for it.

If you could post or send a traceroute and ping sample, it would help me to figure out where the issue lies, and whether I can fix it or not.

I'm sure others will be excited once they know about this. Myself not being a plugin developer, I can't say I'm too thrilled, but I'm sure that I will be happy when someone creates a plugin that utilizes this down the road.

Haha, I just noticed that. They do in fact look a lot like the USB symbol.

Very nice map. I was playing on it the other day and it was a lot of fun. Keep up the great work!

Try using your IP before you go through the hassle of using no-ip. If that works, than try to set up a no-ip account. And yes, it should be DNS Host (A).

What version? G7? G9? MX Revolution?

Looks nice! I like how you showed us the steps it took to make this map. Keep up the great work!

Abominable wrote:How active where the players on your map? Did they seem to enjoy it and keep coming back?

There were quite a few. I would say that most of our players were from the GU and DUC league, but just didn't have time to handle another league in the end.

There are already too many leagues. Having tried to start one myself about a year ago, I can say from experience that it will not work.

If your on windows, you can use blast's test launcher: http://my.bzflag.org/bb/viewtopic.php?t=11785.

The wiki is your friend: http://my.bzflag.org/w/Zone

Also, unless you define a spawn zone, people will spawn outside the square surrounding the castle.

Just so you know, when someone joins the map as any color, a flag appears on their base as well as the box in the middle. I'm not sure if that's the intended effect.

I'm usually playing GU, and as you know, they don't have a geno flag. When I do happen to go to other maps (maybe once every 2 weeks), I'll probably use geno a couple of times.

Honestly, you probably have a smaller chance of someone hosting your map if you don't post it than if you do. Some screenshots would be helpful or even the map file.

Yes, he said it was running at bzexcess.com on port 5163. You could have went there and checked to see if it was.

Is there a way to get to the platform above the giant pyramid without spawning on it?

You also might not want to include the password in your config file because anyone can see it.

Great map, lot's of fun.

Quantum Tank: I don't believe that is possible to do with a plugin for 2.0.x, but probably possible with 3.0.

I'm starting to wonder what you can't do with a plugin in 3.0

Currently running @ my.bzpro.net:5155. Stop by if you want to take a look.

I like what you've done with each revision. The arch in front of each base add a lot to the map. I'm patiently waiting for revision 119028 where the map becomes so good, it explodes

I agree. Sounds pretty cool!
