AJAX BOB 4.7.1 Development/Discussion (don't post bugs here)

[jricart]

I'm having an issue with BOB 4.7.1 not calculating the "Last Bonus" under Statistics. I'm running Firefox 3.0.10. Anyone else having this issue?

Same issue!!!

Yeti,

I don't know if this has been suggested yet or not but it would be nice if there was an option to disable BOB (or the log processing portion) for individual games. I am involved in the two longest running stalemates (Game 207959 and Game 230616) and it takes a really long time for BOB to process the log for those games.

An alternative would be to be have the option to disable the missed turns tracker (which is all that should be harvested from a log search of a non-escalating game, covering the vast majority of all the long-running stalemates).

Just my $0.02

Yep - it appears that Lack has changed a number of the wordings involved with the Script parsing...

This will no doubt cause a number of issues...

I'll see if I can get these fixed in the next few days.

I did code up "auto BOB" - but I actually put a bug in it - if you have this as OFF...

I need to fix that at some point - but yes - there are other methods that do this.

Note that the missed turns tracker isn't just what is used in the log parsing... there are many things such as territory coutns (FOW only) Eliminations (although these could be retrieved elsewhere now) and the card turn in (which is also now on screen)

Hopefully the API can be improved in the future to stop log parsing except for FOW games.

It can be done for individual games if you add in an exclusion for that game in the Greasemonkey Manage User Scripts , such as (replace the ####### with the game of the one you want BOB to be excluded from)

Code: Select all

http://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=#######&full_log=Y

add in an exception as (Note the * on the end)

Code: Select all

http://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=#######*

Thanks Yowser, didn't think to just exclude them.

I am having the same issue, no last bonus showing up in any of my games.

Grumpy smileys increase the likelihood of a fix appearing rapidly.

The first thing to do before playing any Conquer Man games is to exclude that game...

Aren't we not supposed to post bugs in this thread?

No, they are supposed to go to:

viewtopic.php?t=46075

And there's a fix mentioned there

[hwhrhett]

would it be possible to have like a super-map-inspect, where we can view all attack lines at once.... like lines connecting everything that borders each other?

I dont know if that was suggested before. Currently we have an option to swap forum avatars from right to left.

Would it be possible to give an option to swap the game chat windows with game details area (to the right from the map). sometime u need to see both chat and map window and u have to scroll a lot for that...

Exactly. I just posted a suggestion in the relevant forum, but I imagine that it has a better chance of implementation thru BOB. Either be able to swap windows, or perhaps even have a floating game chat window (that could be easily enabled/disabled), somewhat like the HUD.

And one more suggestion.

Add "Starting Neutrals" to the list of the snapshots. When user selects that, then a map will be displayed with armies in the neutral starting countries only.
