The link for installing Silverlight is wrong.

Here is the right link http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/re ... aspx?v=2.0

You will say that I am asking a lot. But... What about having the same chart about armies that each player had at the begining of turn?

Yea that would be nice, but that is currently not possible because the game logs don't provide that information yet. They have announced that there will be a game log improvement soon that will include such information. I can't wait:)

Oh what a pitty! Well, I can't wait for them to provide that information either ;-)

When they do, you could also add a graph showing total armies by each player per turn.

Hmm I'm not sure I'd agree with that, I prefer it to end the line. I might implement it when more people want to show 0 though.

I know is just a personal preference. But graphics always look more impressive when the eliminated player's line gows down to 0 in his last turn ;-)

Or maybe you could add it as an option, so everybody could have it their way.

Good point, I'll address this in next version, guess that will be somewhere this week.

Just tried it with a New World map but it doesn't show yet. I suppose it is still in the to-do list?

Thanks for your nice work :-)

I've just updated the chart, it now allows you to filter on players and reinforcement types.

You do not have to download (or do) anything if you already have ConquerStats 1.1.4 installed: The new chart will automatically appear instead of the old one.

@OliverFA, this should fix your issue with the new world map, could you please verify?

Awesome stuff, cspare.

by **BENJIKAT IS DEAD** on Fri Oct 17, 2008 4:18 pm

Great stuff.

Any chance of having team totals? (cf BOB)

It works perfectly. Really useful now. And not only very useful, but also very nice. Thanks a lot :-)

Another suggestion (you will kill me for making so many suggestions ;-)

) but now that you managed to differentiate the reinforcements for the chart, would be nice to do the same for the "Reinforcements" table (see image)

In that game there are no cards. And now the chart understands perfectly that they are territory bonuses, but the table still classifies them as card bonus.

Another suggestion - a toggle to show cumulative totals?

Yea good point:) I'll update the table and add some tooltip information soon. First I'm planning to have the table auto update while playing, so there's no need to refresh the page.

I'm not sure what you mean. Would you like to see the total reinforcements for all players for each turn?
Team totals is a great idea btw, it's on my todo list:)

I agree. Auto update is first in the priorities ;-)

By the way, another suggestion would be to add a tab to the chart to show territories held each turn. That is a info that is available in the log right now.

Thanks again for your very nice plugin :-)

Turn 1 I get 3, turn 2:4, turn 3:7.

The cumulative graph would be 3,7,14

I just uploaded version 1.2.0, which automatically updates the statistics (both tables and charts) while playing

by **OliverFA** on Sat Oct 18, 2008 3:01 pm

Just updated. It works very well :-)

by **cspare** on Thu Oct 23, 2008 1:43 pm

Just for the record, I've added a new feature to the charts. It now visualizes team reinforcements as well; if you enable it through the new 'teams' checkbox in the chart.
Once again this is a serverside change, so you do not have to download (or do) anything if you already have ConquerStats 1.2.0 installed: The new chart will automatically appear instead of the old one.

For a pretty graph take a look at this...

Is that some kind of DNA sequence? LOL!

I would like a graph of total army count over time - however - with the current logging system - I'm pretty sure it's not possible.

of course we would all like that!

anyway - this script is awseome, but (intermittently) is causing me a headache. Some of the time, I get a Silverlight install button instead of the graph, when this happens, the whole page seizes up - clickable maps doesn;t work, and neither do the assault, reinforce etc buttons.

I have a feeling that this is Microsoft being crap at compiling for MacOS yet again? - anyone else having this problem?

Hmm too bad ur having troubles. I haven't heard of any other problems yet, but I guess it would have something to do with MacOS yea.
Could you check what version you have installed? You can check by right-mouse clicking on the chart and then click on 'Silverlight configuration'.
Also, according to wikipedia silverlight 2 is only supported on MacOS that runs on an intel CPU: Mac OS 10.4/10.5 Intel. Do you have that?

Yea that'd be nice but thats not possible as of yet. We all need to push for the gamelog 2.0: http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1552

It's been suggested over 2 years ago now..
