You MUST provide a license! http://forums.bzflag.org/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=10575

This needs a license... Please add it.

Asking me? none, but only because I have no programming experience. That is where everyone starts, no one is born with it. So, that isn't really a good excuse! Back to your original question... There are many reasons BZFlag is dying, and one of them is the actual BZFlag code base. It was never mean...

I have seen issues with loading the same plug-in multiple times. Can't remember exactly what the issue was, but only that it would require a server reset. The issue with /set is that there is not really great error checking on the values provided. So setting and incorrect value or conflicting values...

What development time are you devoting?

Are you frequently loading and unloading plugins or messing with the /set command?

It's in there.... (at least in theory)

No, you can't meaningfully divide up the permissions into that many groups. Figure out what your permissions will look like and THEN request the number of groups you will need.

Pretty demanding.... especially before the map is built. It usually doesn't work that way, but good luck! You do realize that the maps that you see on the top of the list, over and over cost the owners real money to host in dedicated datacenters? Right? So in other words, you want someone to GIVE yo...

It is what it is...

The output after you put in the command means that you have an error somewhere in your configuration, the server is not running. You are on a Mac, the is no "C:" drive! The server can't find your map. Try changing the path in -World to "/Applications/Games/BZFlag/firstmap.bzw" .

By reading blast007s post... and adding something like '-world /path/to/my/test.bzw' to the end of it

Easily gamed and unreliable. I could set up a server with tons of bots and a huge SW and get to the top of the list eventually, above all the other idiots doing the same thing!

You need to specify a license...

My advice is to not play on PlanetMofo. Play on servers that have a good management staff AND strong language policies that do not put up with the behavior in your complaints. [I am not saying that PlanetMofo does not have a strong management staff (they have one of the very best), just a lenient la...

And there is the wiki at http://wiki.bzflag.org

Did you set a filter on the list?

Hit '/' and use your backspace (till the filter is empty) and then hit 'enter' to clear it

This statement makes no sense... if you cause problems you will get kicked/banned. Getting kicked or banned using a site like this would mean that all users using that site may also be banned.

Well try then all again... it is one of those things. I would suspect the firewall as the most likely candidate.

In the context of flags, there actually is an offset to Geno--SH. If a teammate gets hit with geno while you have shield, instead of dying you'll just drop the flag. But that's entirely dependent on whether you were lucky enough to stumble across the flag. That is not specifically an offset to geno...

Can anyone help me with that problem? Thanks alot!

That is the source code for the plugin. You must compile it for the specific version of bzflag you are using.

Then you "ain't" posting it here if it doesn't have an "open" license and we can't use it so just keep it for yourself!

Which player would it shoot at?

Posts on old threads that add nothing to the discussion and posts that do not conform to the forums stated policies and rules do get deleted. And yes, I do delete many of yours for those reasons.
