A Zone is a rectangular BZW map structure for spawn or flag zones. The zone lets you create a specific area for a certain flag or a certain team to spawn.
Contents
Code
The code for a zone is as follows:
zone name example_zone position 0.0 0.0 0.0 size 1.0 1.0 1.0 rotation 0.0 # Add two GM, one OO zoneflag GM 2 zoneflag OO # cause laser, shockwave # good and bad flags to spawn in the zone flag L flag SW flag good flag bad team 0 1 2 3 4 safety 1 2 3 4 end
Valid parameters for the zone are
| position | Defines the position of the zone in the word (x/y/z) |
| size | Defines the size of the zone (rectangular prism) |
| rotation | Defines a rotation around the Z axis for the box, in degrees. |
| zoneflag | Generates the flag listed inside this zone (adding "flag n" for the quantity). The flag will be generated specifically for the zone, regardless of BZFS options. One flag per call. Remember to use the -fb option in the option object. |
| flag | Listed flag will spawn in the zone. The flags must be be specified for the server via BZFS options. One flag per call. |
| team | Team players will spawn (0 - Rogue, 1 - Red, 2 - Green, 3 - Blue, 4 - Purple). |
| safety | Team flags listed here will fly to the closest safety zone when dropped (1 - Red, 2 - Green, 3 - Blue, 4 - Purple). |
Appearance
Zones have no appearance in a map other than what they define (ex: flags or tank spawns).
History
Zones were added to BZFlag in version 2.0.0.
Editor Support
The zone object is not supported by any known editors. Working with flag zones make sure you have enough clearance for flags, default flag height is 10 world units.
