| 02:12.19 | blast007 | can we help you with something? |
| 02:13.02 | nafta | thanks, just passing by. I m reading logs now |
| 02:13.30 | nafta | ah yes, one thing |
| 02:14.02 | nafta | implement the filter option on flag grab/flag drop logging during game :) |
| 02:14.54 | blast007 | meaning, add an option to hide flag grabs/drops? |
| 02:15.22 | Delusional | shift-F3 |
| 02:16.37 | nafta | yes. shift-F3 dont allow me to see other logs I want to see iirc |
| 02:18.41 | nafta | yes that option. Thx. Gotta go. Bye! |

| 03:04.19 | BulletCatcher | It wouldn't be too hard to support a regular expression for chat filtering, and then everyone could implement exactly the filter they want. |
| 03:12.12 | JeffM | then you just need to teach people the mystic sorcery of regex :) |

| 13:44.23 | macprob | heya |
| 13:44.54 | macprob | just launched bzflag on a new macbook pro for the first time |
| 13:45.11 | macprob | tried to find config file in /library/Application Support |
| 13:45.37 | macprob | but somehow the bzflag folder do not exist in that directory |
| 13:46.55 | Delusional | hmm.. should be there |
| 13:47.50 | macprob | i open Macintosh SDD > Library > Application Support |
| 13:48.22 | macprob | i tried search for bzflag folder and config.cfg and still couldn't find anything |
| 13:48.28 | macprob | wish i could add some screenshots here |
| 13:49.01 | Delusional | try using the âGOâ menu, and press the option key to show âlibraryâ |
| 13:49.27 | Delusional | go menu in finder of course |
| 13:50.22 | macprob | i tried that |
| 13:50.36 | macprob | shift + cmd + G |
| 13:50.49 | macprob | then i type /library |
| 13:51.49 | Delusional | thatâs where my config file is. |
| 13:51.59 | macprob | i know that it should be there |
| 13:52.19 | macprob | there has to be bzflag folder in /library/Application Support |
| 13:52.34 | macprob | then inside bzflag folder should be few folders if not mistaken 2.4 called |
| 13:52.44 | macprob | and the config.cfg file has to be inside it |
| 13:53.08 | macprob | but i have no such directory /library/application support/bzflag |
| 13:53.31 | Delusional | try launching bzflag again |
| 13:55.32 | macprob | i have already tried for the 3d time |
| 13:55.39 | macprob | right now was 3d |
| 13:57.22 | Delusional | well, idunno⦠maybe BulletCatcher will chime in at some point. |
| 13:57.46 | macprob | thanks for the answer, i will make a post on forums later with the pictures |
| 13:57.47 | macprob | bb |
| 15:11.52 | kierra | another player had trouble finding the bzflag folder on mac....he eventually did |
| 15:11.55 | blast007 | it's not in the root library folder... it's in the one in the home directory... |

| 16:35.47 | *** join/#bzflag alfa1 (~alfa1@181.90.27.197) |
| 16:37.30 | alfa1 | allejo: why was the reason you changed the _maxGrabSpawn related value to not be random anymore? |
| 16:38.18 | alfa1 | _maxFlagGrabs* |
| 16:39.14 | blast007 | because we agreeded it made more sense to not be random |
| 16:40.07 | blast007 | agreed* |
| 16:40.15 | alfa1 | why was random at the start? |
| 16:40.41 | blast007 | because someone coded it that way |
| 16:40.41 | Delusional | that is a very good question |
| 16:41.11 | alfa1 | then nobody knows the real reason |
| 16:42.59 | alfa1 | IMO, it added some randomness to the game, which was good; and before changing something, people should ask why the reason was; we players know a lot of them. |
| 16:43.13 | blast007 | the random behavior predates the open-source release |
| 16:46.05 | Delusional | wonât be hard to back-patch your server if random is what you want. |
| 16:46.25 | blast007 | easy to rewrite as a plugin too |
| 16:47.30 | alfa1 | back-patch? that is not allowed |
| 16:47.38 | blast007 | what are you talking about? |
| 16:48.40 | Delusional | maxFlagGrabs is controled by bzfs, not the client. |
| 16:48.43 | alfa1 | "back-patch" as in modifying the server? |
| 16:48.57 | Delusional | yep |
| 16:49.10 | alfa1 | not allowed AFAIK |
| 16:49.16 | blast007 | of course it is |
| 16:50.12 | alfa1 | if I am not a contributor of code I can't do it locally and have a public server |
| 16:50.24 | blast007 | I.. what? |
| 16:50.40 | blast007 | you have the code. you can change the code. |
| 16:51.14 | alfa1 | if I modified my server I can't have a public server listed on the BZ list, can I? |
| 16:51.20 | blast007 | of course you can |
| 16:51.50 | alfa1 | then I don't understand "cheat servers"... will have to read it again |
| 16:53.08 | blast007 | how is modifying the flag drop behavior for everyone on a server a cheat? |
| 17:33.52 | JeffM | cheat servers is when you change the gamplay to make it unfair for some people |
| 17:33.59 | JeffM | changing a variable is not unfair |
| 17:34.33 | JeffM | and it's a bzdb var? a plugin could make it random |
| 17:36.30 | blast007 | yeah, it'd be easy for a plugin to make it random |
| 17:37.06 | blast007 | it just wasn't possible to make it *not* random with a plugin since even setting the _maxFlagGrabs to a very high value was no guarantee it wouldn't reset after a single drop |
| 17:37.24 | JeffM | indeed, random inits are silly |
| 17:37.55 | JeffM | alfa1: don't worry about old reasons, just accept that the project management made the choice. |
| 17:38.10 | JeffM | CRS isn't making the game anymore, his word is not holy scripture |
