BOB comments (old thread)

[mikkel]

sure, how do i reinstall?

[sherkaner]

Affraid not, sher.

Since 4.10.4 isn't working either, could it be to do with Firefox?

For others experiencing this error: it seems like conquerStats is conflicting with BOB when taking a snapshot. I'll solve it in time, but for now just turn of conquerStats or live with it.

I used to be able to use clickable maps and BOB, but am unable to do so now. I've installed the latest Mozilla. Uninstalled and reinstalled the latest scripts for BOB and clickable maps. However, the website does not work correctly with these features turned on.

After logging in, the left hand menu with the game menus (where you login in) disappear and so you cannot access "my games."

If you un-login and turn off BOB and clickable maps, then you can access your games. however, you must press refresh after every move you make.

The only way to make the website work is to use explorer and take turns the old fashion way.

Anyone got a solution?

I don't combine clickable maps and BOB, but BOB on its own works fine for me. The left hand menu can be hidden by BOB, but should appear if you hover your mouse cursor near the left edge of the browser window. Once those menus appear, you can use the BOB "Hide menu" setting to hide it all the time ("On"), never ("Off'), just when you are on a game page ("Game"), or other pages on the site, like here in the forum ("Site").
Make sure you have the latest Greasemonkey as well. I got an update for it just the other day.

Thanks for that tip. I got my menu back. However, now when I go to my game it just says Parsing XML and won't load until I turn off BOB and refresh.

Then, once I turn off BOB, it allows me to use clickable maps. BUT...I still have to refresh between each roll/move/fortification.

Last few times I heard that, someone installed an old version of BOB (4.7.3 in stead of 4.10.5). Are you sure you have the latest versions of both BOB and CM (3.32)?

[michio3483]

I thought I had the most recent, but it looks like that was the problem cause I reinstalled and it was fixed. Thanks

I use BOB on my work laptop. My company IT upgraded my software this week and when I went to CC BOB was gone. So I reinstalled Greasemonkey and BOB. I'm also getting the "Parsing XML" message and having that lock up the game if I have BOB enabled.

[Dako]

Which version of BOB and Greasemonkey do you have? Seems like it is the old one and this should be fixed in the newer version.

[sherkaner]

Userscripts.org is down, and I'm slightly worried it's because of the update-mechanism I used for both BOB as CM..
So if everyone using BOB could install the version below, maybe that would improve things a bit...
(tech: the last version checked every minute whether an update was necessary, and more often (every page load actually) when the response didn't get back. This version checks every hour, and doesn't check again if the response wasn't ok.)

That worked for me, thanks.

Installed version 4.10.6, but now it is still telling me that there is an update available. I uninstalled the previous version, closed Firefox, opened Firefox back up and it is still telling me there is an update available.

My BOB 4.10.5 says there's an update availible but wont update....

[OlJock99]

Also, when you hover on a card, the region is no longer highlighting.

That's one thing I can help. Updated the version again.
Btw, if the blinking annoys you, you can click updating again and cancel updating the script. That should stop the blinking. I did change the code for this, but that will only have an effect for the next upgrade, not this one.

[dakky21]

upgraded to 4.10.6 but still blinking red "update available", how to turn that thing off, thanks

[Lindax]

I updated BOB and Clickable Maps, and now it keeps saying "Parsing XML" when I go to a game and I can't take my turns.

I can take my turns if I disable BOB....

How exactly do you do this? Are you saying to click on the flashing "update available" again? Then what? I don't know where I cancel 'updating the script'.

I am just interested in getting rid of the red blinking msg saying update available.

I also have the same flashing message saying "update available" for clicky maps. How do I get rid of that one?

Thanks, you are doing great work and this is a great service - awesome.
