NEW: Speed Turns (Fast Notifier & Game Jump)

[Ninja Champion]

awesome work chipv! If I could give you an e-hug I totally would

[Herbas]

I noticed one minor issue. Right now I have a bit shaky internet (a loss of it for a few seconds every hour or so). If Speedy Turns tries to check status of my games during the downtime, it "hangs": that black circle ("refreshing") keeps being shown in the corner of status bar and statuses of my games are not updated anymore (even though Internet works again and I do have some turns to make) until I make "manual refresh".

But as I said, it is just a minor issue. Maybe it's not really worth fixing.

Apart from that, THANKS A LOT for this great extension!

Manual refresh is how it was programed. Works nicely!

Hey, I was wondering if you could add the following to the default preferences.

Code: Select all

pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.user" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.username" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.timer" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.view" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.auto" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.first" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.sitters" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.sitternames" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.mygames" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.history" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.historynames" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.browser" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.opentab" , true);
pref("services.sync.prefs.extensions.ccspeedturns.anyone" , true);


They tell Firefox Sync to synchronize Speed Turns' preferences between browsers.
For someone without Firefox Sync, it will have no effect.

agreed. it saves my life.

[chipv]

Yeah I don't see why not although I will need to implement additional features to warrant
going through Mozilla's update procedure. (i.e. I don't want to make an update just for this)

[kamahl]

Fair enough.

[amazzony]

This post is pretty much for marking my interest so I wouldn't forget to get it when I get home from work. I wish I would have found it earlier when I was sitting for several people at once

[Masli]

arghhhh, not able to add #1_stunna
I get the message : No Such Username

[kamahl]

arghhhh, not able to add #1_stunna

Try "%231_stunna" (without the quotes)

[Masli]

that worked, thanks

Is it possible to add flashing (or some sort of visual notifier) when the turn is less than 5 minutes to miss? This way it will be easier to spot the time, because sometimes I missed the turn of my teammate even when I had this add-on working and was online.

my Speed Turns says there are 7 games outstanding - there are none

when i clicked on the green dot it took me to a freestyle game where i went last on the previous turn so it is not a game i can take a turn on

is this the way you want it to work or is it a bug ?

Very well spotted, it doesn't take into account whether or not you are blocked from playing in a freestyle game
so records it as your turn. The problem is that the API does not give me this information so I will request it.

Thanks a lot, nobody else spotted that!

Any chance you could add an optional sound effect if the status of a game changes? Awesome add-on btw.

Hey Chipv:

It is possible to add an option under the Settings displayed in the Sidebar to filter just "Speed Games". This option will be very helpful for those players who like Freestyle Speed Game.

Thanks.

yes, would like to ask the same.
I also absolutely concur that this is a great addon

[initus]

Is there any way that the black background on the refresh icon the appears down in the status bar could have its color changed (i.e to gray) or made transparent? For me it is a little more than eye catching.

[chipv]

Updated to work with Firefox 4, let me know how it goes, please.

[Calidrmr]

working great so far! Thanks Chip!!!!

Did you include this?

No I just updated the version compatibility, I didn't change anything in the addon.

I am still waiting for one change before collecting requests together for next update.
Your change will go in along with the other requests.

Hey chip, in the Firefox 4 Beta, is there any way to get the Speed Turns options to come up using the new default drop down menu bar instead of showing the full menu bar across the top? I'm liking having the menu bar hiding, but I'm needing to sit an account and have to pull up the full bar to change usernames. Thanks.
