I'm not sure what Louman has in place, but in his room, Louman's Bridges, I believe he has it set up to allow for voting of certain things like flagreset, kill/kick, and a couple of other things, but he has set turned off.


What is the syntax of how I use the plugin you just gave me?

so you know, I'm going to want to run this in linux... and the reason I mention that is I know it makes a difference in how the plugins are used, and the file extensions, and all that jazz. I just don't know anything past that basic knowledge...
thanks!

I found a thread last night that showed me all the possible permissions, so I set them up for my cop & administrator groups, and then I tried adding "EVERYONE" and "VERIFIED" to the group file, hoping I could make it to where I could set it so that they couldn't vote for the ...

I tried this in Windows. bzfs -conf ck.txt >> cklog.log I then opened bz, used localhost:5155, played for a few seconds, said a couple of things, then closed bzflag, then the server, and then opened the created log file. It was blank. I repeated the above process, but removed one of the ">"...

um ... that's weird.
I checked over at bz again, and now my servers are listed again ... AND I'm registered just fine in them.

how weird. any explanation for this strange activity?

okay, so does anyone have a solution for my question? As to why I can't seem to get authenticated, or whatever?

I've had similar problems, which just started today. I was in bz, and I quit for a minute to check something. When I came back, I got a dash next to my name, instead of the usual "@." The server told me that the callsign is registered, though I was still allowed to play (I don't have many ...

k, cool - thanks for helping, anyway!

thanks much, that helps!

and yeah, the reason I asked in this thread is I read a little bit of it, and it seems quite interesting - a great idea, I think

how do I view a list of my watched topics?

thanks, and I'll read the rest of the posts later!

peace,

off topic, but I'm wondering - is there a way I can watch topics without actually being part of them?

Like now, since I"ve posted, the next time someone posts here I'll get an email. Can I do that without needing my own input?

this is probably a stupid question, but are all of those images supposed to be blank?

anyone have any answers to my other questions?

I was playing in my server the other day, and I had a great idea, though I'm not sure if it's possible - can I possibly add lightning to the server?

Hah, that'd be cool... unable to kill or be killed. Like an observer who can move around on your own...

k, coolness... all the textures are there as they're supposed to be... but I'm getting BOMBED here! haha... I'm not that great.

K, thanks much for your help.

But who would get the kill? The person who shot the marker or the person who shot the sweet spot? The marker is the sweet spot when it lands on a tank. No, they were saying "the person who attached the marker, or the person who shot the marker?" I'd imagine it'd be the person who shot the...

Uh, here's a question - how come I can't use "-trackplayhistory?" I have the playHistoryTracker.dll file in the bz directory that I read someone else talking about. Whenever I try running the server with it added, it doesn't work. It just displays what options it can use, and that's not on...

Usually my settings are saved without needing to press the button - I think that is there only if you have "save on exit" turned off. But the option is on, so every time I exit, my settings are saved (unless it crashes). I tried that, anyway - set the resolution, saved settings, exit, rest...

All right, I think I'll just allow everything... if I find something inappropriate, I simply won't play there. Weird... my mouse's cursor is moving up gradually... and my mouse is sitting still (flat surface, wireless - no wire pulling it). I know once I move my mouse it'll stop, but it's happened a...

Or how about this instead of a marker flag... a remote detonation flag? He, he... You pick up the flag, and then try to hit someone with the explosive, and then your flag inventory changes to display remote detonator. Then, whenever you want to blow up that tank, you could A) shoot B) drop the deton...

I agree with Soraya.

Yeah, I think I was playing here the other day, but the weird thing is, a lot of things were gray. There wasn't nearly as much color as in the shots above. For instance, the cacti were gray instead of green. I guess I need to allow my computer to download the patterns/textures? How do I go about doi...

At the hide 'n seek hills, I learned that the time lasers stick around could be modified (not how, just that it could be done). So, naturally, I had a little fun with it. I suppose bum decided to join in the fun, and eventually we had a laser show going... until (s)he ended it by shooting me. :P Hey...

MUSIC! Is a definate must... though sometimes, I'll be playing and realize that I've not loaded anything in the music player... I know, I'm strange. But yeah...

I sometimes eat, though that takes away from concentrating on the game. I'm not sure how people could talk on messenger and play...

You know, it's not BZ, but I keep reading in various threads about circling missiles, and keep thinking about Mario Kart, battle mode. It's similar to bzflag if you think about it, because there are question marks to run over to pick up items (flags), different characters (colored tanks), ya drive a...
