BOB Bugs

[LLLUUUKKKEEE]

Got a new bug for ya...When playing Oceania it does not allow me to place my men at the begging of a turn. The region drop down is populated correctly but at about 10 regions half the list starts to appear Grey or neutral. When the button is pressed nothing happens. It sometimes helps to refresh the screen (F5) but not always.

I have noticed that this error only happens when you acquire more than 10 regions...I am guessing at 10 but around there.

Hope i am clear in my description.

yeah same here, and it keeps freezing. I hit Refresh but it gets stuck creating statisics table.

yah that didnt work for me, i couldnt find wordpad or note pad so i clicked on microsoft works word processor and screwed everything up. so now when i click on edit it doesnt work. and i dont know how to fix what i did

so now when i click on edit, a new pop up window opens saying that works was unable to open the project you selected. The file may be corrupted.

not that i know what this all means.

To fix the editor, open a new tab and type into the address bar about:config and then press enter.
When that opens (it might ask if you want to do it to which you'd say yes), then type in the word editor in the Filter bar. The list below will populate with configuration setting and you will see a Greasemonkey.editor field. Move the mouse cursor over it and right click it and select the Reset option. You can then go back into the edit script portion and it will ask for the editor again and this time find the notepad.exe file...might be an idea to do a file search for it first to ensure you know where it is located on your system. (C:\WINDOWS\notepad.exe is on mine).

ok making progress, baby steps anyways
i now have notepad as my editor, no easy task,that being said i tried to follow the above instructions

"Here it is as they told me

For everyone wondering how to do this, right mouse click on the monkey in the lower right corner of your screen,

Select "manage user scripts"

Find Conquer Club BOB in the window on the left and at the bottom, select "Edit" box

If you haven't already chosen an editor, do so now (something like wordpad or notepad will do in a pinch).

Find var str_receives = "receives" (use the search function in your editor, we're not 3rd world here) and do as the man says, change "receiveS" with "receiveD", save the file as a .js (just click on the disk icon usually does it) and voila!"

i think i found, Find var str_receives = "receives" then changed the s to a d in received, but now i dont understand the rest about saving the file as a .js

sorry but this is like rocket science to a dumb carpenter,

please help, would love a simple update

Just save the file, notepad saves it automatically as the last known filename, which is exactly what you want.

Sherkaner is now taking over maintenance and development of BOB.

I just clicked on the update available and "installed" the latest update, however, BOB went away. I no longer have a BOB menu

stuck in Game 5149188......tried refreshing and rebooted, same thing is up there.." Creating Statistics Table "

it let me start, than would not deploy, so when I refreshed, it went all grey and still says same message after rebooting

[sherkaner]

Ok, I made a similar game to check, and got it too. Looking into it.

I ran out of time now....so we will see if the next person has a problem

[sherkaner]

Lol, it's not really a BOB-bug, but an issue with that map. The map maker defined "Suwalesi" and "Sulawesi", probably Sulawesi as a destination... BOB can't find the destination, so it stops.
The only strange thing is that it should have happened before. Ah well, I'll test it for now, see if nothing else breaks and report it to the map maker.

Until then, I guess you'll have to put auto bob off for that map.

All coded as Sulawesi, where did you find Suwalesi?

game still wont let me deploy, also it wont let me submit a message

funny thing is , I had auto bob off, and Game 5149188 did not work, so went to my other games and it didnt work either ...than I switched it back on, and it worked in the other games, but the original one went all grey again

That was aimed at Megadeth - not Sherkaner (although he'll need to note that too!)

try moving the script to the top of the list in the script manager in Firefox. That fixed my problem when I first updated to the latest version.
