4.1.2 is being flaky for me now.

I've uninstalled the script and associations.
Cleared my cache.

And on some of my maps, its not showing the next armies correctly. It gets the number of territories correct and gets these armies right, but not the bonuses.

San Fran is Fine
World 2.1 is Fine


Might isn't
Classic isn't
Rail isn't


I can go through and check some more if you want

Right well I just looked at some classic games and they all work...

This means your XML is still cached...

You can prove that this is the case by going to

http://www.conquerclub.com/maps/

And posting the continent sections of the XML's that don't work.

That's still cached...

Where you have <component> should read <territory>

I suggest keep doing things to clear your cache until that rectifies itself...

Try loading that XML file and pressing F5 - if that doesn't work - you need Ctrl F5...

Weird. I cleared the cache multiple times, rebooted, etc.

I finally had to do what you said, and click on the xml pages individually (and the maps I have played lately were still showing components) and reload them, at which point they switched to territory.

So apparently, cache clearing isn't working correctly for me.

odd

Yeah - FF's cache looks like it's just as resilient as IE's cache!!! GRRRR!! Sometimes I hate Cache!!

I upgraded to the latest firefox and the latest BOB. I cleared my cache numerous times, rebooted computer, checked the XML thingy (it shows "territories") and BOB still doesn't work. I get the BOB menu at the left and the stats ok but the mouse-overs for the map don't work and I can't play with it anyway because the buttons don't work.

It's fine if I turn BOB off but I love my BOB!

(win xp, worked fine until today.)

The custom settings should be able to be copied over via about:config.


Feel free to explain how to do this...

By typing about:config in the address, it will bring up the Mozilla settings. Then type in "greasemonkey" in the filter (the first few characters will reduce the display). Then double click on the "robertstocks" version, press CTRL-C to copy the contents. Close that box, double click on the yeti_c version and press CTRL-P to paste those contents. Then press enter or click the OK.

I'm pretty sure that CTRL+V is paste, and CTRL+P is print. you may want to edit that post unless I am wrong.

Guys - You may have 2 BOB's installed...

You will need to remove the other one...

If your Cache is struggling to refresh then you need to goto

http://www.conquerclub.com/maps/

Then open each XML file and press CTRL F5.

This will ensure that BOB is getting the correct data.

That will bypass your cache because it's looking up by direct IP - thus thinking that it's different to http://www.conquerclub.com
