WinBolo 1.14 Progress Report and Testing
Dec 19, 2003 00:27
Map overview was badly broken in Mac Bolo. You couldn't really rely on it, since it would randomly stop displaying the view from certain pillboxes. I think I prefer the game without it anyway... it's ...

I think a server is just a regular computer with an always-on connection, and a domain name pointing to it. So yes, if they can afford it. :D

OK, I'm more than willing to concede that my original suggestion, to always disallow bots, was ill conceived and wrong, since it would have forced everyone to play that way. So I'll apologise for that...

Bah. Bolo is Bolo is Bolo. It's been substantially the same for over a decade. I'm all for superficial new features like customisable sounds/graphics etc, but anything that changes the gameplay is lik...
