[edit] Code

The code for a zone is as follows:

 zone 
   name example_zone 
   position 0.0 0.0 0.0
   size 1.0 1.0 1.0
   rotation 0.0
   # Add two GM, one OO
   zoneflag GM 2 OO
   flag L SW good bad
   team 0 1 2 3 4
   safety 1 2 3 4
 end

Valid parameters for the zone are

positionDefines the position of the zone in the word (x/y/z)
sizeDefines the size of the zone (rectangular prism)
rotationDefines a rotation around the Z axis for the box, in degrees.
zoneflagGenerates the flags listed inside this zone (adding "flag n" for the quantity). The flags will be generated specifically for the zone, regardless of BZFS options.
flagListed flags will spawn in the zone. The flags need to be specified in the map via BZFS options.
teamTeam players will spawn (0 - Rogue, 1 - Red, 2 - Green, 3 - Blue, 4 - Purple).
safetyTeam flags listed here will fly to the closest safety zone when dropped (1 - Red, 2 - Green, 3 - Blue, 4 - Purple).
