Oceania [Quenched]

[oaktown]

Like I said, this may not be the problem at all - and since some games work fine it probably isn't the problem. Before we send anything to Lack you should ask yeti what he thinks is best, since he should know better than any of us what makes BOB tick.

[sherkaner]

I started maintaining BOB, so I looked into this. Looks like BOB can't find the "Sulawesi"-territory as destination for an attack, since it only knows a "Suwalesi"-territory. So it's just a stupid spelling mistake. Just change it into "Sulawesi" (like on the map), and BOB should work again.

I'll change the script so it doesn't hang on this small thing with the next update, but I think it's better if you just update the map.

Already changed time ago and Lack updated the xml :

Ok, the sulawesi-suwalesi problem was fixed:

Here the updated files:

Small Version: http://www.fileden.com/files/2009/3/21/2373685/oceania.S.jpg.jpg

Xml: http://www.fileden.com/files/2009/3/21/2373685/oceania.xml

If you want check the xml file and you'll see that i typed sulawesi.

Anyway i asked to yeti_c about wallis&futuna.....
He agreed with oak thought.
Now the & is coded as suggested by oaktown
and this one is the updated xml to send to lack

Hmm, I didn't know anything about that problem and I played the map first time and still got the error, even had a popup when things went wrong, it showed sulawesi and suwalesi.. Even with refreshing cache (I tend to do that when something doesn't work), so I guess the xml-file wasn't updated properly. I'll check the &-problem to be sure though.

EDIT:
Yep, the map XML is still wrong if you request it from the site: go to http://maps.conquerclub.com/Oceania.xml, and see for yourself. That's what still breaks BOB.

[thenobodies80]

Re-(re)-checked all the xml, to be sure at 100%.

xml is valid. see test results.

XML is correct...no problem pointed out about the map without the use of userscript.
I don't know what Bob problem could be this one but is not a map bug

[sherkaner]

Ok, to be more precise: BOB gets its country data from the XML from a certain link (in this case http://maps.conquerclub.com/Oceania.xml If you click the link, you should see it). That XML is correct, but still says Suwalesi in stead of Sulawesi, probably the old version.
In the dropdowns, it says Sulawesi. So something was updated, but the xml BOB uses wasn't. This is what breaks BOB, it can't find the country Sulawesi (it only has Suwalesi from the xml).

So I guess Lack had to do 2 things to update the XML correctly, and forgot about one of them (updating the public XML).

I'll try to PM him.

You right....
i asked to a Mod to send the correct xml to Lack
thank you

[thenobodies80]

THIS ONE IS THE CORRECT XML :

i believe that this link is out of date and that the up-to-date xml for each map is no longer held there.

EDIT: yeti_c tells me that the above is indeed the current location of maps; mrbenn has now sent the updated xml to lack, so we'll see whether that makes a difference.

ian.

[thenobodies80]

About & concern...this one is Lack response:

other xmls like Rail_Europe use & without any problem:

Code: Select all

<territory>LAU Lausanne C&amp;D</territory>

So, no modifications on the xml.

Anyway Lack refreshed http://maps.conquerclub.com/Oceania.xml .
Now i read sulawesi

No more problems with bob?

Very cool but its ver complicated and its all over the place.... good though.

It is probably way too late to change anything, and I haven't even read this whole thread, but did anyone mention that "Western Samoa" is not the name of those islands? They are simply called Samoa or Independent Samoa.

As someone who has visited there multiple times, the locals don't really like being called "Western Samoa", because what are they western to? American Samoa? Since they are the independent country, shouldn't American Samoa then be called Eastern Samoa?

I know its nitpicky and too late, but I love all of Samoa and I love this Oceania map (one of my faves) but I can't help but type this.

Aloha!
