Airspawn is a standard [[Plug-ins|plug-in]] that is shipped with the [[BZFlag Source|source code]]. It allows the starting, or [[spawning]] position of a player tank to be somewhere in the air.  Airspawn is included in [[BZFlag 2.0.4|v2.0.4]] and later releases.

==Usage==
When the airspawn is loaded it can take an [[Plug-ins#Parameters|optional parameter]] that represents the maximum height variance that will be applied to a spawn position. The default value is 10 [[world units]].  With the plugin loaded, the height above ground of tank spawns will be a random value between 0 and the maximum value. The usage is:
 
-loadplugin "X:\path\to\the\plugin\airspawn.dll,<maxHeight>"
 
or in an already running game:
 
/loadplugin "X:\path\to\the\plugin\airspawn.dll,<maxHeight>"
 
Examples:
 
-loadplugin "C:\Program Files\BZFlag2.4.10\airspawn.dll,100"
-loadplugin "/usr/local/bzflag2.4.10/plugins/airspawn.so,100"
 
The "-loadplugin" syntax is used in the [[sample conf|server configuration]] file or at the command line when invoking a game [[BZFS|server]].
 
==History==
Airspawn was the very first plug-in made, it was a proof of concept for the API.
