When the enemy is on a building, I'll get really close so he can't see me. He will just focus on the screen and shoot any moving thing. Then I just drop my flag and jump a little bit after. His or her reflex will be to shoot when they see the top of the flag. If there aren't many shots on the server...

You don't have to lock carefully when the person is doing a circle around you. Just don't lock and use it like a normal bullet. It will be harder to dodge.

It would get boring if you wold lose that much time in the air. Just self-destruct. It will take you 10 seconds if the exploding time is 5. At the end you'll lose a point but the other person won't get one and you will be able to get in the action faster.

Why not using the -solo thing to start multiple bots. Then just minimize the client. I've never tried and I don't know if they are all going to be [nr]. And I think they won't be as "smart" as the auto-pilot.

If the enemy is running away with your flag, you'll send the tank closer to the base. That's not smart. That's why you don't shoot the runner in the back ;) If you shoot the tank in the back, it will get closer to the base. If you shoot on the side, it will just go away and keep driving to the base...

u could hit people out of arena If you get out of the arena you get auto-kicked. That's not fun. If thyour tank is moving too fast (I believe the flag will blow tanks away faster than the moving speed), you get auto-kicked again. If the enemy is running away with your flag, you'll send the tank clo...

It is just awesome. When i played, the scoreboard was getting out of the screen. It was something like 25vs25 + 7 or more observers.

I see what your talking about. I've even played on it. It was rogue only if I can remember. I'm not sure but I think it's a map by Inferno. I believe it's not on the server list ATM.

Superflags are all flags except team and bad ones.

I believe he was thinking about the Wings flag.

I think this isn't a good idea because the Wings flag will just become Useless (and that flag alredy exists).
On the other hand, I would like to see a Wings fighting server where you can fly and have another flag at the same time.

jump=death In the case where you jump, I believe it's for dodging bullets because why would you jump then (if you're telling me you're jumping to get on top of a box and get killed, just kill the person first and don't try to evade by getting on a box): jump=death no jump=death jump+luck(or skill)=...

Looks great. I believe you should add 2 or 4 teleporters and some stuff in the big open fields.

This flag won't add anything to the game. Most of the players are dropping SR as soon as they grab it so what's to point in adding a similar but weaker flag?

Looks good to me but I still didn't try it yet. I'll do ASAP. I hope there will be people playing because you can't realy appreciate a map when your alone on it.

I believe it was rain'N'frogs. Cannon, UFO and "camping" tank. Yea that's it.

It was a real screenshot. I've played there and I like the changes except for the fire background which was annoying.

It was a good begining but the 6th post was clearly showing it was an April fool.

I wasn't sure if it was a joke but when I saw the changes on www.bzflag.org...

Nice joke and i admit it's easier when you can change the website.

Looks good. Great job. If there's a wall in the middle (that's what i think because it would be too easy to cap), how are we supposed to get on the other side. And what are the flags in the corners and on the green spots on radar?

It seems cool but, wait a minute. Paying for BZFlag? Cheating allowed? Being admin by asking?
/me looks at the date of the posts and asks ?April fool?

Wow really nice. I've always wondered what would happen if i changed the textures in the folder. Here's my answer.

Useless post I've ever seen!

To stay on topic, is the server curently on and if yes, what's the server and port.

Awesome!!! Really good work.

You forgot to remove the players who stopped playing and the multiple registrations by a same person. And you should count the non-registered players too.

I agree some really good servers are lost on those 20some pages. I really liked that rain'N'frogs map with the huge cannon and the camping tank. :cry: I know there is the -solo thing but it ruins the fun to play against bots. I agree that even the top list maps are getting old. I'm never playing on ...
