Running on Delusional Server
Sir Pant's map will run on my new Delusional Server, until verizon changes my IP address. currently 151.201.10.237 port 5154 It's damn impressive. But still not complete. The end-to end transporters are cheesy, will be changed. Gravity is just right. Lighthouse is perfect. Giant floating dolphin wil...

Pants Guide
Sir Pant's Mac guide was especially useful. I never coulda started a server without him. Another person who helped me with Macintosh issues was CannonBallGuy. I'm still pretty new to hosting, but I'd be willing to do what I can, to help other MAC users start servers. I might put together a little MA...

Balance is key.
It completely depends on the map. If the map has lots of camping spots, limits are needed. If the map is wide open, let 'em shoot with impunity. The current trend towards larger and more complex maps actually detracts from game play, in my opinion. If you want to see a no limit map that plays extrem...

LibCurl -ing
What is (test to get libcurl installed) ? It's the only part of the post I didn't understand. Edited here-- Oh, forget it! took me all of thirty seconds to figure it out. Sherlock is good for some things. http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2004-01/0050.html[url] NOTE : libcurl is only needed if you're...

Here's another idea 1. Regular map. 2, 3 shield flags for every 5 players. No other weapons. 3. If I knew my ass from a hole in the ground, I'd already be playing this one. Or try this on for size. 1. No flags freely given. Zero. Players trade flags amongst themselves but the flags never hit the gro...

working backwards
Yeah, I'm deluding myself. I just thought of this three days ago, But the trading-flags-in part is what I thought of first. Actually I started with a fully realized StarGate Map. You needed to collect four flags, and go to the stargate, to become the new Defender. ..... And you already thought the f...

Here it is plain and simple. Distilled Defender
Recipe for Triple Distilled Defender 1. RabbitChase Map. 2. Two flags, both shields. (or even just one.) 3. Carriers of the flags are the rabbits. 4. Make a way for the flags to slide off of the rabbits, when they're shot. 5. That's it! The only way to make a flag available is to fight. There's a fi...

If you don't get it, Here's how.....
If you're not getting it, here's how a single, very well played turn might play out. Remember, all flags are shields. 1. You spawn, no flags can be seen, except the one on the player right in front of you. 2. You get a hit on him. The flag pops out, you pick it right up. 3. He's mad and chases you. ...

Defender, the Best Idea In Ages, My Very First Post, too
It's a new concept, try to take it slowly. point 5 is the kicker. A way to take BZFlag back to it's arcade roots. Insert Coin. If you played Battle Zone in the arcades, you know Defender and it's sequel, StarGate, were damn good games too. -------------------- Rabbit Chase is a great idea, it would ...
