FreeNode
The official BZFlag org. and its associated communities use the freenode IRC network for communication and collaboration.
Channels
Official channels
BZFlag maintains 2 official channels run by the org.
#bzflag
The #bzflag channel is the primary development and support channel. The major developers and many long time community members are users. Discussions in the channel range from development and coding discussions to technical support and bug reports. #bzflag is a great channel to discuss new features and bugs. The channel is moderated by the project administration and development staff. This channel is not for help with specific servers or administration issues
#bzflag-chat
The #bzflag-chat channel is a more informal channel designated for player community discussions.
Other projects and unofficial channels
A number of players, servers, and leagues have their own channel for more focused discussion. Some of these include:
Active channels
- #BoomBZ (Team Channel for LU team [BoOm])
- ##bzexcess (Support channel for the BZExcess.com servers.)
- #bzfx (Support channel for the bzfx.net BZFlag servers)
- ##bzpod (Channel to discuss the BZFlag podcast, BZPod)
- ##bzpro (Support channel for the BZPro.net servers.)
- ##bztank (Unofficial support channel for the BZTank.net servers.)
- #bztraining (Official support channel for the BZTraining server network and for BZNetwork)
- ##bzw (A place to discuss map making for BZFlag, including ideas and help)
- ##divi (Support channel for Divibox and other Fairserve servers)
- #dub (Support channel for the dub.bzflag.org BZFlag servers)
- #forestforce (Leagues United Team)
- ##hepcat (Support channel for borrego.hepcat.org BZFlag server)
- ##norang (Support channel for Norang.ca BZFlag servers)
- ##leaguesunited (Support channel for Leagues United)
- ##planetmofo (Support channel for planet-mofo.com servers)
- #powerbzedit (Support channel for PowerBZEdit)
Inactive/defunct channels
- ##bzflagr (Support channel for the BZFlagr.net servers.) - closed down
- ##ducleague (Support channel for Ducati League (DucLeague)) defunct
- ##guleague (Support channel for GamesUnited League (GULeague)) defunct
- #inleague (Support channel for InterNational League (INLeague)) defunct
- #pillbox (Support channel for Pillbox League (PBLeague)) defunct
- #plosileague (Support channel for Plosileague) defunct
- #silvercat (Support channel for Silvercat BZFlag servers) defunct
- ##bzmatchball (support channel for BzMatchBall) defunct
When the Freenode Group Management System is implemented, channels with a single # will need to either register their organization with Freenode or rename to begin with ## (a "reference" channel, one that holds no legal claim to the name).
stormcenter.net
An unofficial bzflag channel is run on irc.stormcenter.net
- #bzflag (official support channel for BZtank servers)
IRC Clients
To access the IRC network you need to use an IRC client or Freenode's Webchat. IRChelp.org is an excellent resource for more information on general IRC.
