BOB Bugs

[Mensathis]

Something I've just noticed, BOB no longer gives the last bonus for anyone from round 2 on wards,

i noticed this too....was gonna report it....

[BrotherWolf]

I've also noticed strange characters, inabilty to deploy, Inability to attack and lack of last bonus figures. Not on all maps, it's as though it's creeping through the system.

[azezzo]

its also not showing the regions/calculated regions properly, on the city mogul map in particular

[Gilligan]

Something I've just noticed, BOB no longer gives the last bonus for anyone from round 2 on wards, it's like groundhog day for the last bonus because it's always zero. I tried a reinstall to no effect, might this have something to do with it?

2009-06-06 17:32:20 - Artimis ended the turn

It might be new because there is no indication of ending a turn in a game with spoils if you ended without attacking.

Other than the whole, you know, it's no longer the player's turn thing...

Getting crazy characters in Forbidden City and Waterloo (Don't have a shot of Waterloo though)

It turns out I can't deploy either, not sure if I can on the colored dropdown but I can't on the non-colored one.

got same problem. it started some 24hrs ago... same with wrong calculation and it didnt give you points summary after the game... and yeah, problem with last bonuses, what artimis mentioned... really strange things happening, and im a bit lost

[ObiTone]

im getting exactly the same as everyone here too...

[Angus Khan]

I'm getting the same bugs, some maps won't deploy properly or display properly at all, doesn't show ANY of the "last Bonus" numbers like it used to and I believe it is all coincident with Firefox doing a slipstream upgrade to version 3.0.10 yesterday. So if you're NOT experiencing these problems check your Help, About Mozilla Firefox and see what version you're at.

[seankozma]

I am also getting the last bonus = 0 problem. And now I'm annoyed at Mozilla, because I don't like stealth updates. I will update the damned software when I feel like it, thank you very much.

[djak.]

The 0s in "Last Bonus" may be because of

Maps API

I also modernized the way we store our maps database, and maps.xm is on the outs. Instead you can access the list of maps via the API using api.php?mode=maps. The output is mostly the same with slight differences. Script authors, please consult the Plugins & Addons forum where chipv will soon post further details.

i got this from BOB in Game 4666293

Player Missed
Turns (Total) Troops Regions [Calc] Strength Last

Sun Tzup 0 (0) 8 ( 13% ) 2 ( 5% ) [ 15 (36%) ]* 11.67 0 (5 + 0 + 0) = 5 0
Vikermac 0 (0) 5 ( 8% ) 5 ( 12% ) [ 10 (24%) ]- 4.67 0 (3 + 0 + 0) = 3 0
Boss_oss_ss 0 (1) 13 ( 21% ) 8 ( 19% ) [ 8 (19%) ]- 10.67 0 (3 + 0 + 0) = 3 0
hecter 0 (1) 35 ( 57% ) 1 ( 2% ) [ 1 (2%) ]- 37.33 0 (3 + 0 + 0) = 3 0
MrSinatra 0 (0) 0 ( 0% ) 0 ( 0% ) [ -1 (-2%) ]- 3 0 (3 + 0 + 0) = 3 0

Totals 61 ( 100% ) 42 ( 100% ) - -

for you who cant see it it says MrSinatra has -1 territories (yet he is wiped out )

[Gilligan]

Game 5034381

I cannot see any of his territories so BOB thinks he is eliminated.

[Manny Killer]

This was a pretty useful feature in saving time and helping to know who had the biggest bonuses. But now it always shows 0 for the past few days. Seemed to begin Thursday or Friday night.

Anyone know why this is happening?

[ManBungalow]

Which add-on are you using ?

It could be something to do with the log-reader being told to read something after "2009-06-05 19:49:32 - ManBungalow and got spoils"
But now says
"2009-06-05 19:49:32 - ManBungalow ended the turn and got spoils"

I don't see why any script should try to do that (sometimes players do not get spoils), but it's a possibility...

it tells me you have -2 territories

I'm running Firefox 2.0.0.20 because I was getting upset with the memory leaks in 3.0.10. I'm still getting the issues with last bonus at zero and negative territory counts, but not running into any deployment issues or crazy characters.

[Don Juaquin]

Glad to see I'm not the only one with the last bonus '0' problem.

Yes, firefox 3.0.10.0 (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042316 Firefox/3.0.10 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729))
but also getting it on my Debian box, (X11; U; Linux i686; en0US; rv;1.9.0.9) Gecko/2009050519 Iceweasel/3.0.0 (Debian-3.0.9-1)

So I think the problem might be more with the update to the maps previously mentioned.

[Night Strike]

"2009-06-05 19:49:32 - ManBungalow ended the turn and got spoils"

It looks like Lack has changed the game log text to always show when someone ended their turn, even if they didn't get any spoils. BOB will need an update to correct for this, which should fix the Last Bonus = 0 problem.

[sherkaner]

Yeah, same issue.
Though I fixed the script locally by replacing'var str_receives = "receives";' with 'var str_receives = "received";'. 1 letter difference , and I can see the last bonusses again.

[Manny Killer]

which script is that in?

me too, and it is really annoying for my fog games

[OlJock99]

That works! Thanks!!

[Angus Khan]

Worked for me too, too simple I guess. LOL

For everyone wondering how to do this, right mouse click on the monkey in the lower right corner of your screen,

Select "manage user scripts"

Find Conquer Club BOB in the window on the left and at the bottom, select "Edit" box

If you haven't already chosen an editor, do so now (something like wordpad or notepad will do in a pinch).

Find var str_receives = "receives" (use the search function in your editor, we're not 3rd world here) and do as the man says, change "receiveS" with "receiveD", save the file as a .js (just click on the disk icon usually does it) and voila!

Good work sir!

This has been going on for a while just wondering if any resolution is in sight.

Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Mine is back and operational now as well.

Just a note for those of us inept at writing and using scripts, there are two places you have to change the s to the d for it to work. If you only change the first one, then it won't work.
