Re: Public Team Score Contribution Value

That is exactly one of the concepts that I disagree with. While it would be nice as a plugin, I do believe that it is such a general and useful display that it could be integrated into bzflag. ctf and ffa are this game's most popular game modes. ctf in specific holds the essence of capturing the opp...

Re: Public Team Score Contribution Value

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I tend to disagree with most if not essentially everything that you had written in the response to the op, but that's totally cool! If there is something that I will address specifically from your reply, is that none of the plugins you had linked actually relate ...

Public Team Score Contribution Value

Currently, it is publicly visible how many kills/deaths each player on the map has individually, how many players of any team are currently online, what is the team score based on flag captures (ctf) or what is the team score based on the sum total of that team players' kill - death values (ffa). Pr...

Re: Team Flag spawn away from base?

will it fly back to that zone after every drop? not just drops over pyramids? I assumed the question was for caps only. Setting zoneflag will make the flag fly back to that zone upon cap, setting safety will make it fly to the zone upon a drop above a disallowed area, such as above a pyramid. Do yo...

Re: Team Flag spawn away from base?

Safety zones, which is what I was referring to in my initial message, only apply to flags that are dropped, not capped, as far as I know. I had also just tested it out, and unless I missed some essential factor, the safety zone setting does not apply to caps. Perhaps intrusive wasn't the best word f...

Re: Team Flag spawn away from base?

Interesting question, I doubt it is even possible without intrusive plugins. As you're probably well aware, there are already default parameters present at the zone object where one can specify the nearest zone where a team flag will fly to, but not upon capture. Unless I'm wrong and there is some s...

Re: stagedSceneGenerator

This certainly seems interesting. When you mention this plugin being of help with creating screenshots for the bz website redesign, would that perhaps mean that the screenshots included there would change actively and automatically to project recent events and happenings on maps, or just being of he...

Hey trpted, Server permissions are permissions that can be appended to preset groups or to individual players.

Hey trpted,

All of the server variables can, at the time being, be found on their respective wiki page. Their names, default values, and descriptions are listed there. If any description requires further explanation, feel free to ask.
