Great, Phil. I think of the scene in Tron where the MCP's lackey program says "I'm taking him into the maze." Might be cool to perhaps have at the beginning of the round a single AI cycle (or maybe a couple more, I dunno) that would quickly generate a random maze then disappear from the gr...

Well, I suppose one main point I left out was that I'm just more impressed by players like so-and-so, or who-and-such, or.... But these guys who throw down all kinds of maneuvers, and have variety in their playing. They can get you any which way. I aspire, heh. On the other hand, people who do the s...

Yep, they're off. Just in case, I clarify something: by defaults I meant those settings that after the particular setting in the list, after the colon, where it says "default." The little fade-in instructions say it's best to keep those as-is, so I do.

I use the rim if I'm forced in that direction with limited space or if it's a faster way to get somewhere. I don't do that much on Swampland because of cycle_rubber_speed 200 and cycle_rubber_mindistance .01. The ring server is much better for that, and it requires skill to prevent bounces. Same he...

Low fps

AA 0.2.7.1 -- OS 10.2.8 -- 600 MHz G3 -- 256 MB -- ATI RAGE 128 Ultra I'm just curious as to why I get such a low framerate playing this game. The highest I'll hit playing locally, with no AI, is 50 fps. And that's spectacular compared to playing online, where I'm lucky to hit the mid-20's. If the n...

Getting booted for "cheating"

AA 0.2.7.1, OS 10.2.8 Ever since I've been playing online I've been continually booted from games, regardless of the server, with a message something to the effect of "The server assumed you were cheating. If this is not the case then it may be a bug and you should report it." So I'm repor...

OK, I downloaded it last night. I'm on 10.2.8 as well. Same problems. Wouldn't launch (just showed flashing in the dock, then crashed), and then the trash issue you referenced. I suppose I could do some testing for you, although I'm not terribly tech-minded; it would just depend what you needed. Nor...

Here I come with my first post ever. It's rather damn long as all hell, but uh, yeah. I promise most others won't be, heh. So, I only began playing maybe a month or two ago (just after I got broadband), and have always used 2.7.1, and yet I find I agree with youse. First, I'll say a couple things in...
