Right now, I would have a hard time getting the Game Log and the whole map on the screen at once, so being able to mark a line and then scroll to the map might be a way to go. The other thought I had would be to do something to move the log right next to the map (like the Game Chat can be moved) or to put it in a floating box.


You're welcome for the support. Though now that you point out the issue with not being able to get to the game log, I think you're right about it being something that should be clicked on.

The 'big site upgrade', has that been on the horizon since you joined the staff or since you joined the site in 2008? While 2008 seems the more likely of the two to me, I have to ask since I'd imagine you mean since you joined the staff since I don't know that a staff member would say the comment meaning 2008 :)

There were hints a couple updates ago that there was a new web developer upcoming, I hope that's still the case as the site could really use one. I understand that Lack is extremely busy and gets precious little time to code new features for the site, but I think that the site should be big enough to throw $1000-$2000/month into an update or two each month.

I don't know if I should post this here, but Live Chat won't work when I use BOB. I keeps at the 'Chat loading ... Please wait' thing. I use Opera with BOB but I also checked with FF and it won't work there too. Live Chat does work properly when I use Chrome without BOB.

I'm checking the live chat now, but I have no problem with it (either in FF or Chrome, though I can't log in with both browsers). So I'm not sure what the problem is, which operating system do you have, and do you have other addons?

No other Addons. I used Windows 7 OR (dunno sure) Vista Business edition. I tried on another pc with just Windows XP and it didn't work there aswell.

Error with time remaining in games

Postby Jippd on Fri Dec 23, 2011 10:40 pm

Operating System: Windows
Browser: Firefox
Scripts/third party programs used: BOB/CM

If the bug happened in a game/s, do not forget to indicate the game number/s.

on my games home page under active games it shows:

Round Limit
Round Length
Round - Time Remaining

Under this category for all my games I'm getting the example results:

None
24 Hours
Round 2 - 13:32:21
Tomorrow @ NaN:NaN am

None
24 Hours
Round 2 - 22:14:18
Tomorrow @ NaN:NaN am

For time remaining. I think there is an error with the time remaining or something. I hope that makes sense. I'd post a screenshot but I'm to lazy to create a free image hosting account.

Normally it shows what time you have to take your turn.. For example Tomorrow @ 6:43 PM. But instead it is showing the NaN:NaN. I'm sure this means something to you coders

The quick fix for the my games function is to change line 1590 in function updateMyGamesClock(elements) to


Code: Select all
time = currentHTML.split('<br>')[2].split('-')[1].split(':'),

This happened because of the new speed games options. I'm sure they're working on an update already ;)

NaN simply means "Not a Number". which means that whatever it is it's trying to calculate, does not compute, because the data is not recognized as a number, or not a number of any value the computer can work with. it's like telling the computer it's February 30th and expecting a proper date out of it. it will just tell you that it's not a valid date.

Works like a charm, thanks Thrush :)
Though it was line 1667 for me.

cool, so other people have been having the issue. I've lost a few speed games, as doesn't update to my turn, just showing 4:16minutes remaining for the opponent to take their go....... Meanwhile, they have gone and I'm running out of time.

3.6.25 Firefox, not sure about greasemonkey, but certainly the latest. Resisted upgrading Firefox because of previous problems.

Re: BOB 5.1.7

Postby imacamper on Sat Dec 24, 2011 7:32 pm

Thanks for the update. However new version's snapshot in chat is different. In 5.1.6, clicking the button posted a "note to self" in chat with the snapshot link. In 5.1.7, clicking the button pastes the "snap::" URL in the chat but doesn't post or check the note to self box. Is this by design?

Also, I'm curious if I do not remember to click "note to self" in a fog game, does that mean the snapshot reveals my positions to all? That wouldn't be good...

Cheers,

Drew

I just updated Firefox and Greasemonkey, and rebooted - and I have BOB back! None of my GM add-ons showed up right away; when I switched over to the forums, all my GM add-ons suddenly appeared. I am currently using Firefox 9.0.1 and Greasemonkey 0.9.13
