chatglove - a floating game chat by Foxglove! (naming by rabbiton)(maintained by dwilhelmi)
Original thread - viewtopic.php?t=104594

What does it do?
It detaches the chat log and chat input controls from the page and allows you to drag the chat frame around the game page. It also makes your chat warm and fuzzy!

Where do I get it?
Install the greasemonkey script from here: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/92257

User Guide
chatglove User Guide

Changes in version 1.6.16:
- Corrected for Firefox 5.0

How do I use this?
  • Click the "detach chat" link located to the upper-right of the game chat log
  • Resize the window by clicking and dragging the bottom-right corner
  • Reposition the window by clicking and dragging the header bar
  • PROFIT!
  • (Click the "restore" link to return the chat log to its previous page position)

Go easy on me guys, I have never worked on a greasemonkey script before.

All props go to Foxy for all the fantastic work on this script! Even the fix for this update was written by her! I just hope I can keep up going forward :).

Re: GM Script: chatglove - a floating game chat - v 1.6.9

Postby Qyu on Thu Dec 09, 2010 10:56 am

For me, chatsniffer never display the red message for game with new chat.

I debug this problem, and i found that with the bob option 'Full Log = Yes', the game link has another get value (&full_log=Y), and so, the script who return the game number is misled.

I put off the bob option 'Full Log', but if you could fix this bug.... well, christmas will come early

Can you change the script so that it runs on http*://www.conquerclub.com/*? I use the https version of the page and it's a bit of a pain to change the script every time I reinstall it.

Thx

I had the same problem with no red messages. As for firefox, I went into manage scripts and moved chatglove script to the top(above BOB), which fixed it for me. I think a new update came out after i did that too, so he and Foxy might have fixed that bug as well.

Request for enhancement (haven't gone into the code very much to know if this is even possible). I'd like to exclude games or classes of games from being watched. I don't care if there's new chat in a game I'm eliminated from if it's not a team game, and odds are by the time I'm eliminated the game is lost anyway. I'd love to not get updates when someone writes in a game I don't care about anymore.

Can you please make Game Chat [x] link go to the first game with new chat? Or open My Games page and scroll to the 1st game marked with new chat.

Also - what does Reset chatglove does? Can you add an alert or something to notify user that something has been actually resetted?

Great job so far, need to check the code and maybe you are doing even better than I think :).

Reset chatglove sets the chat window to the top left of the main CC content area. It was added so that people who (somehow) moved their chat window out of the viewable area of the screen could get it back.

WOW Dustin, you are amazing. Only had it 1 day and already added a great new feature to ignore certain games. That is awesome because I always have 1 or 2 pesky games that have irritated me.

Love the ignore-update! =D>

Now, can you make my laptop screen bigger so I can take fully advantage of the floating chat? 8-)

Unfortunately, that is a feature that is a bit out of my skill level...

I was only joking. Not much extra space on my 12,1" screen ;) I can barely see all of the largest maps without scrolling. Thank God for clickies :lol:

I have an update ready to go that will make the Game Chat [x] link go to the first game with a new chat. It will also change "Reset chatglove" to "Reset chat position", and give a confirm box when you click on it saying "This will reset the position of the floating chat window. Continue?".

Any other bugs or enhancement requests that anybody has? I would rather batch them up so that I don't keep spamming people with updates.
