[1.3.41] - 2026-10-11

Changed

• The BZFlag port's TCP and UDP listen, and WebTransport (with https and
  its packages) and WebRTC (with werift) are on, without a server.json
  block asking: "bzflag": false, "webtransport": false and
  "webrtc": false turn each off and stop offering it.
• hix lets tanks jump.
• Ace, the autopilot and server bots, plays to the score: a foe coming down
  from a jump on his level within a shot's reach is shot first; a foe 10
  clear of everyone is hunted ahead of captures; 3 under his foes' average,
  he fights rather than captures or fetches flags.
• A map's flag and team spawn zones reach browsers and bots beside its
  safety zones. Ace takes an unnamed flag in a one-type zone for that type,
  and with no foe left alive waits within a shot of a foe's spawn zone.
• Ace's routes no longer drive or fly through a wall thinner than the route
  grid (hix's diagonal walls), drive off the point of a turned base, or land
  where a small miss falls off a corner; he goes round on the ground rather
  than jump to a landing a foe has a clear level shot at, unless that is
  much further; and he no longer fires a level shot at a foe whose body is
  not at his muzzle's height, Super Bullet included.
• npm run bench:stuck drives Ace between random spots on a map and lists
  where he backed off, missed a jump or never arrived.
• Ace takes his own flag to the middle of his base and puts it down there
  on the move, rather than at the edge he came in by -- where he could also
  stall, turning between home and not.
• Ace counts a jump flown once he is down on its level a few units short of
  the planned landing, instead of taking it a second time from there -- the
  second jump that carried him past his base onto the pyramid under it.
• A jump from a flat mesh top with the tank's centre over its edge keeps its
  speed; it went straight up, as off a slope.
• Ace gives up a flag he is held short of twice, and steers round a bad
  flag he knows of rather than drive over it -- including one the player he
  flies for has seen carried, identified or named.
• Ace keeps Identify, remembers what it names, and trades it only for a
  flag worth it (L, GM, SB, SW, G, ST); he goes out of his way for one only
  while ahead on his own and his team's score. Server bots holding it learn
  what it names, as a person's client does.

Fixed

• Flags no longer spawn inside buildings on a map whose flags are 0 tall
  (hix), and one dropped inside a building climbs onto it or, with no top
  to stand on, leaves, as upstream.
