The new version seems to be working, but there's a small problem, the avatar swap in site options isn't working.

Actually, I take it back. Game 7052338 BOB seems to think everyone has every bonus.

EDIT: new BOB seems to have issues with Iraq as well as NYC

Bugs so far:
Click attack: Broken completely
Snapshots, interesting: The pictures that come up not only have the wrong colors, but have double the original number of armies on them, or they show zero armies, mostly with the color blue having the extra terits and armies.

hope this helps, sorry Lack broke stuff... again...

FYI ... I'm having trouble with BOB just initializing for play. Seems stuck in a loop. Can't get into my games ... unless I turn BOB off. NO fun in that. :roll:

Last answer I'll give today. Which version do you have installed?

Minor issue with 5.0.1: The map opacity doesn't work once you leave the map. So if you decrease opacity to 40% when you leave and then go back to the map it shows up at 100% then if you click to decrease it will drop down to 30%. So it sorta works, but you have to click on the opacity every time you visit the map.

I went to the clickable maps thread (here: viewtopic.php?f=527&t=104488&p=2640203#p2640203 ) and re downloaded the newest one and it works now.. (did not need to uninstall just click link as if updating it)

I remember this problem from a ways back. I wish I could remember which version, it might help with finding it again.

As soon as I updated to BOB 5.0.1 clicky maps does not even show up on the left in game & is unusable. It does show CLickies installed in my scripts though.

I downloaded BOB 4.10.5 a month ago. Since I haven't succeeded to Update. When I click flashing Update Available, I can see something happens but no alternatives comes up. It's just a quick movement on the screen. After that Update Available still flashing. And it has been flashing since the day I downloaded.

Currently there's a vail over my games and a senter text saying Initializing BOB with a spinning symbol.

I'm having exactly the same problem and I've has Bob installed for years. I have to disable GreaseMonkey just to play. This just started tonight so I hope that this is temporary. Also, clickable maps has not worked right for months. My "target sights" have been off center. I need some help.

Don't forget, when you have problems with any plugin or addon, especially after an update, it's usually worth reloading the page (press the F5 key) and/or reloading while ignoring the cache (press Control-F5).

Well, no doubt the Mac version of Firefox has a way of doing these things. Control-R, perhaps? Clear the cache via the Tools/Options dialog? Any Mac users care to share their specific expertise?

Re: BOB 5.0.1

Ok, 4 problems so far if I read everything correctly:
1.) BOB doesn't work on macs.
2.) Map opacity per map isn't saved properly.
3.) Swapping avatars doesn't work
4.) Hiding menu in game doesn't work.

I consider the clickies-things to be unrelated to BOB (and I guess they will be in general).

first problem seems most important one. Please double-check you have version 3.5 of firefox (or above), if it doesn't work after that:
The script probably gives an error, which means something will probably show up in the error console (not sure how to open in on a mac, but it's in the tools-menu).
If someone could tell me that error, I could probably find out what is happening.
