Server Variables
Name Default Description
_agilityAdVel 2.25 multiplies tankSpeed (for short bursts) for tanks holding Agility flag
_agilityTimeWindow 1 specifies how long the tank will have the speed specified by _agilityAdVel
_agilityVelDelta 0.3 - ???
_angleTolerance 0.05  ?? src/bzflag/Player.cxx: if (fabsf(state.azimuth - predictedAzimuth) > angleTolerance) {

_angularAd 1.5 multiplies how fast tanks can turn while holding the Quick Turn flag _avenueSize 2*_boxBase - ??? Space to leave between objects in random maps? _baseSize 60 - Width and Depth (bases have constant height) of the square bases for CTF games _boxBase 30 - ??? Width and Depth of boxes on a random map? _boxHeight 6*_muzzleHeight - ??? Height of boxes on a random map? _burrowDepth -1.32 - How far down tanks drop when they have the Burrow Flag. Making this much lower makes it below the floor, and impossible to kill tank! _burrowSpeedAd .8 multiplies tankSpeed for tanks holding the Burrow Flag _burrowAngularAd .55 multiplies how fast tanks can turn while holding the Burrow flag _coldetDepth 6 - _coldetElements 4 - _countdownResumeTime 5 This enforces a delay when resuming a paused countdown. If the argument is lower or equal to 0 then resuming is instantly, otherwise it is delayed according to the value (in seconds). Available in 2.1 and later. _cullDepth 6 - _cullDist fog far plane culling distance ('fog' uses the fog parameters) _cullElements 16 - _cullOccluders 0 - _disableBots none - Does not allow autopilot, equivelent to the old -probitbots command line option. This option also does not allow bots. _drawCelestial 1 draw the stars, sun, and moon _drawClouds 1 draw the clouds _drawGround 1 draw the ground plane _drawMountains 1 draw the mountains _drawSky 1 draw the sky pyarmid _explodeTime 5 - After a tank is killed, this is how long it takes to blow up. Larger time means longer explosions and more client processor time _flagAltitude 11 - How high up the flag pole the flags are. _flagEffectTime 0.64 - _flagHeight 10 - Height of the flag (not its pole) _flagPoleWidth 0.025 - Diameter of the flag poles _flagPoleSize 0.8 - _flagRadius 2.5 - _fogMode none linear, exp, or exp2 _fogDensity 0.001 for exp and exp2 modes _fogStart 0.5*_worldSize for linear mode _fogEnd _worldSize for linear mode _fogColor "0.25 0.25 0.25" RGB or black, red, blue, etc... (alpha is ignored) _friction 0 - 0 is normal friction, the closer to 0 the harder it is to start and stop, and the higher the number the easier it is to start and stop. _gmActivationTime 0.5 - How long (in seconds) it takes for a Guided Missile to become active after it is fired. Any contact under this time will not result in detonation (setting it to low could cause its owner to run into its own GM and be blown up! _gmAdLife 0.95 - How far guided missiles will go. Specified as a multiplier to _shotRange. _gmTurnAngle 0.628319 - The angle at which a Guided Missile will turn to follow its target. (Measured in radians) _gravity -9.8 - The rate at which a tank will fall (or be kept from jumping) Measured in Meters/Seconds^2. Setting this to a zero or positive value will result in tanks being unable to stay down and will float away. _handicapScoreDiff 50 - How much of a score difference (from the leader?) there must be for a player to get a handicap _handicapVelAd 2 - Player with handicap will recieve this much more (_tankSpeed + _handicapVelAd) velocity than the normal _tankSpeed value. **Note: These could be factors rather than additions. _handicapAngAd 1.5 - Player with handicap will recieve this much more (_angularAd + _handicapAngAd) turning ability than the normal _angularAd. **Note: These could be factors rather than additions. _handicapShotAd 1.75 - **Note: These could be factors rather than additions. _identifyRange 50 - If a flag is this distance or closer to a tank carrying the Identify (ID) flag, it will display the closest flag's type. _jumpVelocity 19 - How fast a tank moves vertically while jumping. _laserAdVel 1000 - How fast a laser travels. _laserAdRate 0.5 - Firing rate for a laser. This is a factor of _rFireAdRate ??? _laserAdLife 0.1 - How long a laser remains after being fired. (measured in seconds?) _latitude 37.5 - The latitude at which the world exists. This effects the timezone. _lgGravity -12.7 - Modifies the gravity for owners of the Low Gravity flag. Similar to the _gravity variable. Available in version 2.2 _lockOnAngle 0.15 - Angle in relation to tanks heading (postive or negative) that will allow a Guided Missile to lock onto a target. _longitude 122 - The longitude at which the world exists. This effects the timezone. _lRAdRate 0.5 - Rate at which the laser will reload ??? _maxBumpHeight 0.33 - Any difference between the surface a tank is on and the top surface of an object the tank runs into that is less than this value will allow the tank to simply move up to the object rather than being stopped by it. _maxFlagGrabs 4.0 - _maxLOD 32767 - _mirror none - Options: white, black, red, blue, pink, purple, orange, etc... ("black 0.75" is a good setting) _momentumLinAcc 1 - _momentumAngAcc 1 - _momentumFriction 0 - _mGunAdVel 1/_mGunAdRate - _mGunAdRate 10 - _mGunAdLife 1.5 - _muzzleFront _tankRadius+0.1 - _muzzleHeight 1.57 - _noClimb 1 - _noShadows 0 - _noSmallPackets 0 - _notRespondingTime 5 - _obeseFactor 2.5 - _pauseDropTime 15 - _positionTolerance 0.09 - _pyrBase 4*_tankHeight - _pyrHeight 5*_tankHeight - _radarLimit _worldSize - _rainBaseColor none When _rainType = rain, sets color of the bottom of raindrops. _rainDensity none How many drops of rain in the space defined by _rainSpread. _rainEndZ none Height above the ground where rain should stop falling. _rainMaxPuddleTime none How long a rain puddle should exist before disappearing. _rainPuddleSpeed none How fast puddles should spread out. _rainPuddleColor none Color of rain puddles. none means no puddle. _rainPuddleTexture none Texture of puddles. Best to leave default. _rainRoofs 1 0 - rain falls through everything; 1 = rain hits buildings, but puddles are only on the ground; 2 = rain hits buildings, and creates puddles on them _rainSpread none Radius from center of map where rain will fall. _rainSpeed none Should be obvious _rainSpeedMod none Randomizes _rainSpeed by adding/subtracting up to this number from each raindrop's speed _rainSpins none 0 - Rain dosen't spin as it falls. 1 - Rain spins as it falls. _rainStartZ none Height above ground that rain should fall from. _rainTexture none Name of texture in data directory. Works with _rainTypes of frog,particle,bubble,snow,fatrain _rainTopColor none When _rainType = rain, sets color of the top of raindrops. _rainType none Adjusts all _rain* and _use* variables automatically - Options: frog,particle,rain,bubble,snow,fatrain _rejoinTime _explodeTime - _reloadTime _shotRange/_shotSpeed - _rFireAdVel 1.5 - _rFireAdRate 2 - _rFireAdLife 1/_rFireAdRate - _shieldFlight 2.7 - _shockAdLife 0.2 - _shockInRadius _tankLength - _shockOutRadius 60 - _shotRadius 0.5 - _shotRange 350 - _shotSpeed 100 - _shotTailLength 4 - _shotsKeepVerticalVelocity 0 - _skyColor white - _srRadiusMult 2 - _squishFactor 1 - _squishTime 1 - _syncTime -1 - _syncLocation 0 - _tankAngVel 0.785398 - _tankExplosionSize 3.5*_tankLength - _tankHeight 2.05 - _tankLength 6 - _tankRadius 0.72*_tankLength - _tankSpeed 25 - _tankWidth 2.8 - _targetingAngle 0.3 - _teleportBreadth 4.48 - _teleportHeight 10.08 - _teleportTime 1 - _teleportWidth 1.12 - _thiefAdLife 0.05 - _thiefAdRate 12 - _thiefAdShotVel 8 - _thiefTinyFactor 0.5 - _thiefVelAd 1.67 - _thiefDropTime reloadTime*0.5 - _tinyFactor 0.4 - _trackFade 3 - _updateThrottleRate 30 - _useLineRain none 1 - Rain is vertical lines, smoothly shaded from _rain?TopColor to _rain?BaseColor; 0 - it isn't _useRainPuddles none 1 - Rain creates puddles; 0 - Rain dosen't create puddles _useRainBillboards none 1 - Rain is billboards, textured and look the same from all angles; 0 - rain is lines or polygons _velocityAd 1.5 multiplies _tankSpeed for tanks holding the high speed (V) flag _wallHeight 3*_tankHeight - _weapons 1 - _wideAngleAng 1.745329 - _wingsGravity _gravity - _wingsJumpCount 1 How many jumps wings can do before returning to the ground _wingsJumpVelocity _jumpVelocity The inital velocity of a jump with wings, in meters/sec _wingsSlideTime 0 - _worldSize 400 -
