Thanks Tr0y!

The colorblind version works great. I couldn't tell if someone was yellow or neutral until they attacked.

It seems like another way would be to make the color selection custom either for all players or just the portrayal on your own machine. If you like red you could always be red (on your screen). Of course this would create an issue with people in chat who refer to color instead of nick. But then of course I should be writing scripts myself.

Excellent job on the code. It definately makes things easier for us old folks.

use firefox to download it

[killabeeze]

anyone else find that this script slows their firefox down a noticable amount?

[Tr0y]

On CC it would, because it has to parse stuff otherwise it shouldn't.

[killabeeze]

well i generally leave a CC tab open...i guess i should drop that habit when working and stuff. plus i'm more likely to get work done

For low res users, moving the "Armies/Turn w/o Bonus" number as a + after countries (which is what it's based on) would be great.

Code: Select all

Name (cards)   Armies    Countries +armies   Strength
djak. (5)      18 (17%)  15 (31%)  +5        20

I know theres a lot of talk about which browser you have to use in order to use this script... A lot of IE users want to know if it's for IE, and etc.

Me personally I'm an Opera user and Opera has built-in support for .js files - it reads almost any greasemonkey script with no problem whatsoever. (any script written using the W3C Document Object Model - http://www.w3.org/DOM/ - which is quickly becoming the standard) However some greasemonkey scripts use Firefox-specific code that make them incompatible with Opera... these CC scripts happen to fit that category.

My point is that it's possible to write greasemonkey scripts in a way that is compatible with both Firefox and Opera, and it would open up the script to a lot more users just to modify them to be more universal. Is this an option at all? Since most of the script is probably already compatible with W3C, it would probably only require some slight tweaking (little more effort than what is required for a bugfix, I would think) to make it Opera-ready.

Is this doable or are certain functions of the CC scripts simply not possible using the W3 standard?

Tried some of the suggested downloads and got no results.

Can you steer in the right direction? I’m about half literate, but, explanations work wonders with me.

(3) This step involved going to Greasespot. I could make no sense there. I stopped and jotted this down so you could see my poor progress. What’s the answers? I’d like to get the bells and whistles plus the colorblind download that points out the colors.

ilarry, Greasemonkey is written for the Firefox browser, not Microsoft Internet explorer. You can download it from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/

The less Microsoft, the better; so if you don't play Windows games, you may want to look into the free software GNU/Linux operating system to replace Windows. I use the excellent Ubuntu distribution http://www.ubuntu.com/

Your advice was extremely helpful and everything downloaded (after Java and FireFox) wonderfully. It's a whole new experience again!
Thanks and best wishes,

hey, I was wondering, is that compatible with the Opera browser?

[Tr0y]

AFAIK this is not compatible with Opera.

It may be possible to port it over to Opera.
