Yeah, I didn't really see a way out of that, except by adding spaces every * (15?) characters if there is room left. But then it will be a few lines, not too pretty either.

well since snapshots get taken in the note to self and otherwise only in teamgames, well it would be bad to have a teammate without bob, but then you dont use snapshots in chat, or am i wrong?

Bob seems to be having a nervous breakdown 8-[
Tho I guess it may not be bob, and it's not like it's anything serious either, so I'm not sure how important it is

So I just updated BOB and clickies, and something weird's going on. I can click on games I'm in just fine, but when I try and look at another game (either thru game finder or a forum link), I get this:

Basically, no map for some reason. And the color codes are on for the player listing. Weird stuff.

That's a problem with the site, not BOB. I've submitted a bug report already.

Oh k, I couldn't exactly pinpoint what was wrong, tho I have had that same problem in my own games as well. Even a variant where the space for the map displays (but not the actual image) but more importantly the action buttons weren't there. Similarly, when I have that same problem as you, the map nor the space appears in other games, but I do actually get those hovering over region signs with bob on the page

Yeah, it's pretty obvious to see that this is probably because of the new site update by lack, could still be that there are compatibility issues between bob and the site tho 8-[

Well, it's something to do with BOB, since this wasn't a problem until just now when I updated it.

There was a site update by lack just before BOB was updated. Could be you just didn't notice until now.

5.1.0 has some issues under Chrome:

1) Can't see Last Bonus
2) Does not properly count number of countries owned
3) Maybe other ;-)

Missed turns are not showing up in my statistics. Game 7730658

The light blue player has missed 2 turns in a row now but Bob does not show them.

Not sure if this has to do with the update.

If you have it set to automatically start there's no problem. But yeah, there's no "Start BOB" button anymore. Region count is also screwed up, apparently one of my territs is hidden from me :lol:

Hmm, bugs so far:

Last bonus is zero in every kind of game I'm playing EXCEPT Assassin and Terminator. - Correction, last bonus only accurate when EVERYONE is less than 10. Perhaps insufficient room in the variable? _ Correction, there is no rhyme or reason to it, some games are zero at 2nd round, long b4 large bonuses.

Fog of war games with more than 6 terits per player show as EVERY player having 12 terits (under "/ Calc").

Running FFox 3.6.10

When I go into a game, it tries to load BOB then hangs at "BOB Initializing". This happens for all games. It was working fine yesterday. What do I do?
