Shots are not tracked on the server, so the server can't fire a world weapon when they end since it doesn't know where they end.

...and seriously dude, English.

Hey, great job on this! It covers essentially everything one needs to get started on plugin programming, which is a hard thing to put into explainable format. Also, there's a little mistake on the Custom Map Object section of the PDF: it lists "bz_registerCustomMapObject()" twice, once where it should be, and one where it should say "bz_removeCustomMapObject()". It's a little tiny thing and the source file is correct, but it just stuck out at me. :)
