* Default flag: The flag “hedgewars.png” (shows a hedgehog), flag of new teams
|

|

* Community flags: The flags whose file name starts with “`cm_`” are listed as “community flags” in Hedgewars (the prefix is removed)
|
|
|

* National flags: All other flags

Please note that flags are _not_ automatically shared when you play online. Unless the other players have your flag, too, they will only see the default flag for your team instead. The only flags you can be sure are also seen online are the ones supplied by the Hedgewars installation. |
