    Hi
    I can`t play in the solo mode .
    I start the game under linux with the command.
    bzflag -solo 5
    All things loading o.k even the 5 bots. But I then, there isn`t a button to start the game, there is only one to join a network game . er ???

      You'll have to make sure you start your own local server - and join it - BZFlag doesn't tecnically have a single-player mode. You can play with robots on a single machine, but it's still done using network protocols.  Use localhost, I think.

        On windows, open a dos window and navigate to

        c:\Program Files\BZFlag1.7g1

        (or where ever you installed it)

        type

        bzfs -p 5156 -pr 5157 -j -ms 4 +f good -r +r

        Next open a second dos window, and again navigate to your installation directory.

        type

        bzflag -solo 5

        When BZFlag starts, select Join Game

        On the next screen, arrow down to server, and type

        127.0.0.1

        arrow down to port and type

        5156

        arrow back up and select Connect.

        -----------------

        the bzfs command can have a myriad of arguments, but the above will give you a reasonable game.

        type
        bzfs -help

        for more info.
