Awesome. Amazingly awesome.

No problems at work with chatglove. Must have been the DT's since I've been on the wagon.

Hmmmm!

1. Do you have the latest version of the script?

2. Have you used it before or is this your first time installing it?

Hmmm... lovo, I'm not sure what's going on.

Let me think about it and I'll send you a PM asking some more detailed questions so we can get this figured out.

this doesn't relate to your script, merely your example pictures...
you print screened, pasted in paint and saved as jpeg, as is visible from the loss of image quality.

When saving in paint, use .png

you probably already know this but I figured I'd say it just in case.

haha, I did not know that. So, thanks! I will do that in the future.

Idea:

Make chatsniffer check games once each 10 minutes (or 5 minutes or make it an option). Right now, every page load runs 40+ ajax request which really slows my browser/connection (and the number might be even higher for other people). I don't need to know that there are new chat on every single page load - once in a while is more than enough because that is not an urgent information.

Yeah, I have certainly considered this. When I initially wrote chatsniffer I only gave it out to people who didn't have a lot of games.

I think I will make it a configurable option. For myself - I like it to check frequently.

Heya, I am sure it is just me (again!) but if I drop chat back down to its "rightful" spot, click the "team only?" box so that I can talk to the bad guys, I still only talk to my team. I have to "detach chat" in order to be able to do that.

Help?

Oops. That is, indeed, a bug.

I've been on a bit of a break from script updates, but I will hopefully get to it soon.

Also, sometimes all of my games will randomly get "New Chat" at the same exact time, though no one says anything in them.

And then when I click "mark all chat is read", it goes away until I go to a new page...then they're back again.

Can you help?

by **Dako** on Sat Jun 12, 2010 6:19 am

And one more moment - you should mark the char as read when you input a message there. Also, it will be faster (I think) not to count chat lines, but the timestamp of the last chat line (easier to clean up read chats).

I think i might have found a bug, today i had trouble posting in a chat of a game that i wasnt in when the chat was detached

I've had issues like that when switching from a team game to a non-team one, like chatglove tries to keep it as a team chat. I haven't tested it enough or done it enough to report.

This is what happens to me.. If I press mark all chat as read, it does.. until I load any page, then everything is unread again

by **FireStar** on Fri Jun 18, 2010 10:43 pm

Even when i read the chat it will still say its unread...

by **Dako** on Sat Jun 19, 2010 2:03 am

Try to stay on that page for 5-7 seconds - should mark it as unread after that.

This script does not seem to play well with Chrome - all of my games always say that there is a new chat, even if I try to mark all as read, and any options, including the one to turn off chatsniffer, do not save once I leave the current page. Any chance of getting this compatible with Chrome at some point? The script looks awesome, and I would love to be able to use it.
