| 21:23.12 | Zehra | Greetings all, one quick question on mapping. |
| 21:24.25 | Zehra | The 'define' item in a .bzw file is 'define SampleName' and the objects to be added to a map file... |
| 21:24.49 | Zehra | And it ends in 'enddef' for BZFlag 2.4.x? |
| 21:25.34 | Zehra | Or maybe an example of the 'define' and group object being used? |
| 21:27.47 | blast007 | not sure I understand what the question is |
| 21:29.01 | Zehra | I'd like to know if the description for the define and group objects in .bzw from the BZFlagWiki are compatible with 2.4.x |

| 21:29.53 | Zehra | I need to move over 200 objects and would like to move them as a single one. |
| 21:30.57 | Zehra | It's "The Grand Castles" and I basically need to move the whole castle. |
| 21:31.42 | blast007 | I don't think the map format changed much, if at all, going from 2.0.x to 2.4.x |
| 21:32.25 | blast007 | group/define is generally for when you want to have the same elements copied to another part of a map |
| 21:33.00 | blast007 | so, say, you could have identical bases on two sides of a map (with some materials swapped for different colors) |
| 21:44.45 | Zehra | Thanks blast, everything works well. |
