im not aure if this has been implemented but i shall suggest anyway.

i love the way the menu now hides iteself, think that was a great idea.

to add to that i think it would be great if the actual menu appeared however far down the page you are.

for example i am looking at my 50th and game with the longest wait (hence at the bottom of my games page) and if i flick my mouse over the menu dosent appear, i have to scroll all the way to the top, it would be cool if the menu appeared in full no matter how far down a page you are......


hope that made sense!

So a floating menu that follows you down as you scroll.

By the way, I agree.

I don't know how this could be implemented, as I know that with CM and BOB, I can't fit the whole menu on my screen at one time. If it's going to be following me, I'll never be able to get to the lower menu stuff...

Wut? So you're looking at game chat, you try to get your menu open (and succeed in doing so) and then you want to scroll down to see the rest of the menu, but OH NOES! you can't because you can only scroll up and the rest of the menu is all hidden.

the best way to fix this is for yeti to code drop down menus like in CM.

not if the menu could be made to scroll separate from the rest of the page... like the game log window

I think we should maybe give this one a no... That would be a lot of work for poor yeti, and I don't think it has much merit to it.

Just an idea. Might have been suggested before.

Could it be possible to be able to order the stats by strength, number of territories, number of armies, as well as player number?


By the way keep working on BOB, i dont think i could play well without it :?


(not that i can play well at all anyway)

The Card set chance thingy takes into account number of territories held - and the liklihood of having a matching card... hence the extra decimals...

Technically there is a *slight* bug in that I'm not feeding the Calculated territories into the Card Set Estimate analyser...

RE Menus... Too many posts to quote...

I am reworking the menu soon to make it more compact... so I could possible do some floating stuff...

Of course the problem is I would have to fix the bottom of the menu at the bottom - and that at the moment is the Shop advert...

So if you were in "Chat" - then it would flow off the top...

But I am concerned that if I do float the menu then it will be tricky to access certain parts - unless you are at the bottom or top of the screen...

Sortable Columns... It's a possibility...

But a couple of questions...

a) How would it work in Team games?
b) Is it really necessary?

You should only need to clear the cache once per map.

I'm unsure as what to suggest - have you followed the list of things to do - once you have done them once - then it should all work...

The only thing I have to suggest is make sure you have all current versions and you aren't running multiple versions...

not sure if this was mentioned already, but i'm noticing the ocenia continent bonus not registering in the ajax bob stats (classic map). Here are two games that are showing this problem:
