GM Script: chatglove - a floating game chat - version 1.6.16

[EBConquer]

I do believe that there's a new bug w/ this script in regards to the polymorphic games. Although I've had problems in the past w/ this script, I've never seen anything quite like this.

The game chat sniffer always tells me there's 1 unread message and it's always in that poly game. The only way to clear it is to click "Mark all chat as read". Then, soon after that it just comes back. This little buddy just won't quit.

Anybody else having this problem?

Edit:

Yep, this script is officially broke. Both at home and at work. Game Chat reads i have 6 unread messages but when i scroll down, I only see one red "chat".

Oh well, this script was in the top 3.

I can't believe i'm the only one that's mentioning it.

Check your "chatsniff Interval" value in the Options menu. I had "every page load" checked and was getting the same problem. I've changed it to "5 minutes" and it is working since then.

I have had a problem with the grey PM Team Mates button under the list of players on the map, I am curently playing a 9 player triples on kings court 2 and when i use the pm team mates button it brings up the wrong players as recipients for the message ie players on an opposing team rather than my own team members. anyone else with the problem and can it be fixed.

That is another add-on's problem. You cand find a non-official improved version of Private Message add-on here viewtopic.php?f=527&t=159621&p=4287934#p4287934. That version works fine with 8+ players.

I think it would be very helpful if chat glove didn't alert BOB snaps in the Game Chat. I just wanna see chat. Someone taking a snap, I can just see when my turn comes up. So it's a time waste to go through games that are just snaps.

Please DON'T do this. One of the most useful features of chatglove for me is that I can take a look at every turn because I get notified simply bkz my partners took a snap even when they don't say anything.

I think I've ruled out my main suspect. I couldn't get over the thought that my computer was just moving so slowly that I was moving off the page before CG had time to update. But recently, I've been paying attention to how many chats pop up right when I sign in to CC. I'll have zeroed them out the day before (or whenever the last log-in was) and I'm still getting a bunch popping up right when I log in. I doubt this really helps narrow the issue down.

Now my main suspect is really long games or games with lots of chat. But I'm afraid that most of my games fall into that description, so I'm not even sure that that's it.

Was there ever any updates on this? As far as I can tell, chatglove appears to be nearly random in which games it marks as having new chat. It has never failed to report when there actually is new chat, but pretty much every time I visit the site, it will indicate that about half my games have new chat. The majority of the time there is nothing new. If I step through each of the games, sometimes it will suddenly incorrectly mark games I'd just visited as again having new chat. Can you tell me where the number of chat lines are stored? Maybe I can manually check that file periodically to see if something is getting changed and try to track down what's going on.

In a way, I'm glad more people are finally having this problem. Hopefully, we can figure out what's wrong. No one has ever been able to explain it.

Check your "chatsniff Interval" value in the Options menu. I had "every page load" checked and was getting the problem mentioned above. I've changed it to "5 minutes" and it is working perfectly since then.

I will try this. Still doesn't explain what's wrong, but we'll see if it's a good workaround.

That "5 minute" solution is a temporary fix. (At least for me) the old problems make their inevitable comeback.

Yeah, I have 9 active games and had 5 "new chats" ... only 2 of them actually have new chat.

[chapcrap]

I think this might be broken with the newest update.

I think this might be broken with the newest update.

Yeah.... a fair amount. I will fix it this week.

I still have problems on Chrome, with Tampermonkey; whenever I install Chatglove it breaks BOB and Clickies. I've tried un-installing everything, installing in different orders etc. with no luck.

Me, I don't have problems with the floating game chat, but with the "new chat" warning. I stopped receiving these warnings. I can see them if I'm in the forum (and not in the "My games" page), but when I click on it, it always redirects me to the same game.
I'm using last version of Mozilla Firefox (25.0.1).

Indeed I am. You're welcome!

Foxglove, i've just installed the latest version and notice that it doesn't size up the entire menu column...it's like the size of the cells are locked to a certain width and not 100%

Yeah - I forgot to fix that part. Oops! I will update soon and make that look like the rest of the menus. It's a leftover from the previous style of CC.

Indeed you are! : P
Thank you very much =) Thanks to your update, it works for me now.

[iAmCaffeine]

Still breaks my clickies.

[cairnswk]

Foxglove, a suggestion.

i find that having your floating chat is indeed handy, however, for some reason it always seems to get stuck at the top of my screen and the top section where you grab it is always hidden under the top of screen.

Is it possible to move the option from the chatglove addon,,,,reset chatbox...to the bottom of the floating chat screen, so that it is more easily clickable to reset that position rather than having to find it after scrolling down to that level of the menu on the left.

So I'm not the only one!

Foxglove, you deserve a fist-full of medals for updating these scripts. Thank you so much!!

[Conde180711]

awesome! missed this big time

[chapcrap]

I wonder if this could be updated so that if the only new chat is a snapshot it gets ignored... If that's all the chat there is, I don't really care about checking it.

Also, was this fixed so tht it still works with the beta team? IcePack told me he thought there might have been an update for that. If that's the case, I'll rejoin the beta team.

THIS IS JUST A TEMP FIX UNTIL CREATOR OF THE SCRIPT UPDATES IT.

IMPORTANT!

1. when you run it for the first time you may have to press "reset chat position" if you cant see the chat.
2. in panel interface you can only see the detached chat when you would be able to see the chat.

CHANGES:

• ignore snapshots.
• works with clickys (took time.......)
• fixed so the menu looks like all other menus. (not shorter anymore)
• save position in a new way. (its saves where you drop it)
• works in inbox menu (leftnav is missing id tag in the inbox)
• works nice with the new panel interface (and without ofc)

and yes it took me 11h... just for u guys. maybe breakfast and then go to sleep... programming is dangerous but fun ^^
