blast007it looks like it should be possible to integrate the flatpak version of BZFlag with the desktop environment's menu13:40
blast007most (all?) of the other flathub repos I'm looking at don't copy a .desktop file as part of their post-install steps13:59

ZehraHello everyone, I have thought of a minor fix for a small issue which occurs from time to time.23:22
ZehraCurrently, there is every once in a while where a server has 'players', while none are joined.23:22
ZehraA check on the client, if I'm not mistaken, could check and see if there is any players in all teams and return none if there is none.23:24
blast007Zehra: you mean that the server list shows that there is a player connected, but when you join there isn't anyone there?23:24
Zehrablast007: Yes.23:24
ZehraOr more correctly, the one where the total player count shows players, when there is none in all teams.23:25
blast007ah,23:27
blast007I wonder if a connection to a server that hasn't yet fully joined as a player (so either a player joining or a bot querying a server) would cause that23:28
ZehraPossibly, but sometimes even grabbing the list again does nothing to change it.23:31
ZehraEven after a minute or two.23:32
ZehraThe lack of being able to reproduce this bug on demand has made it hard for me to study precisely.23:34
