I have clickable maps w/out downloading it, how to remove?

by **PonyGal** on Sun Apr 28, 2013 6:35 am

This is an odd one, but since logging in today I seem to have acquired 'clickable maps' (atleast this is what I think it is.. I have B.O.B 5.2.4 installed & I use the function that highlights a selected region & shows possible attack routes. However now this pop up appears every time i hover over a selected region and offers such helpful tips such as "click here to deploy x amount of troops" then "click here to attack x region" .. that is clickable maps right? I always use drop down, I never downloaded any clickable maps & in my greasemonkey there is none listed. I have BOB & map rank & clan rank that is all. How do i get rid of this if it doesn't show anywhere? I really hate the view of my attackable regions being skewed by pop up boxes stating the obvious (I tried in my last game to click from the map to both deploy & attack & it worked, this is what has me convinced it's the clickable maps feature. I've also noticed in conjunction with this that the BOB options for snapshots are now located under the map & not above as they used to be, does anyone know what this could be? I have not changed any settings whatsoever. Thanks for any advice O:)

That is the sites version of clickable maps. Just ignore it.

You're right PonyGal -- and as a user of clickable maps, those popups are now preventing me from clicking on the map regions (so clickable maps is no longer usable because the popup prevents actually clicking on a terit). I'm noticing it's only a subset of maps that have that going on, and the BOB buttons for snapshots have moved below the map in every case where it's messed up.

Has something been upgraded on the site over the weekend that caused this?

yes
freemiums now have adds above their maps, so the snapshot buttons moved to below the map

Thanks for the responses, Is there any way to turn off those pop ups ? They flash & cause my game screen to flash, this never happened before yesterday

nope
have not figured that out

Yep - It's really messing up game play...hope the problem gets fixed soon. It does it only on some maps where it for some reason moves the snapshot bars to the bottom of the map.

that happens because freemiumns now get adds above the map. and premms do not. however tournament games do not suffer the adds problem, so there the snapshots button stay at the top

I'm hoping someone is looking into it. Is there a thread (I can't find one) to get an update anywhere?

Thanks!!

I think I may have stumbled on to a "workaround" ... changing the BOB setting to move the chat to the top seems to have repositioned the popups so they don't interfere with the clickable maps functionality. It's taking a little getting used to, but I think I could get accustomed to having the chat as the first thing I see on the game/map page. Seems to be working in my regular games and in the tournament games.

This works, thanks for finding that, it was literally giving me a headache. If you install chatglove, http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=527&t=132761 you can detach the chat and put it wherever you like so it shouldn't get in your way.
