The Aggression and Reinforcements sections are actually from a different plugin than BOB, they are from ConquerStats. The problem might be related to a problem in BOB though:
(Technical explanation:)
BOB doesn't implement the refreshGMScript function correctly. It replaces the unsafeWindow's function with a new one, which removes the implementation ConquerStats uses. This doesn't cause any problems as long as the ConquerStats code is executed before BOB's (e.g. if ConquerStats is installed/updated after BOB was installed/updated). But BOB was recently updated, and by that introduced the problem.
To fix this BOB should call the original refreshGMScript's code after BOB's refreshGMScript is completed:
Code: Select all
var originalRefreshGMScript;
originalRefreshGMScript = unsafeWindow.refreshGMScript;
unsafeWindow.refreshGMScript = function()
{
// Do Stuff
originalRefreshGMScript();
}
A workaround for users is to change the order of the scripts as they appear in the Greasemonkey window. You can drag&drop the scripts to a new spot in the list. Make sure BOB script is placed above ConquerStats. Another way would be to reinstall ConquerStats.

Isn't it somewhat easier for the average user to change the GM loading sequence at
Manage User Scripts... so that ConquerStats is loaded before BOB?
Right mouse on

-> Manage User Scripts... -> Drag/drop the scripts in the left window to change the loading sequence. Make sure Conquerstats precedes Conquer Club - BOB in the list.

Hehe, beat you to it;) I had updated my post already ^^
Anyways your explanation is lot better ^^
ConquerStats should be below BOB in the list though, not on top. So in effect:

Country Totals

Country totals are wrong in World 2.1, I haven't checked other maps.
I count 115 countries in the XML. However bob has two conflicting numbers. 113 under 'totals', but if you add up the numbers in brackets (fog of war) it adds up to only 112.

There are 113 zones in World 2.1 - And the CALC column doesn't have a value in the totals field - so I can only assume that there was 1 zone left neutral.

I'm having trouble with scripts since the Firefox update in the night. No new scripts will install, and existing ones are failing.

I'm using the Windows version 3.0.4. I decided to reinstall it, and that fixed the problem.

I'm on 3.0.3 at the moment and haven't been prompted to upgrade...
Seems that may be the problem then.
Bizarre.

Yeah it is bizarre. If anyone else runs into this problem, I'd reinstall Firefox. I didn't even do an uninstall of Firefox first, as I wanted to preserve my scripts if I could. Worked just fine.

Yes - right over the top worked very nicely and solved the problem without having to lose all the scripts that were there. I suspect that something in that update was corrupted and caused the original problem.

Check Blues armies out...
Game 3168896It seems that if one player is killed then their partner deadbeats - the FOW analyzer gives the armies to the dead played instead of no-one.

This is more of a scripts in general bug from a newbie to this whole Greasemonkey world
When I run BOB, conquerstats, dice analyzer, or clickable maps in any combo that I've tried so far the map will stop auto-refreshing in speed games and I won't be able to click any of the buttons (Attack, Reinforce, etc.) on the page.
Running FF3 in Vista (if that makes a difference)

Next time it happens - can you goto "Tools -> Error Console" Click the "Errors" tab - and then post anything in there in here.
