BOB version 1.2 [was CC Greasemonkey script - unofficial]

by **hatterson** on Tue Jul 31, 2007 4:44 pm

For some reason BOB doesn't seem to be working on maps aside from Classic. The only thing that I believe changed from yesterday (when it did) and today is that I upgraded to the latest version of firefox (2.0.0.6). I don't believe greasemonkey updated with this, but it may have.

Well, it seems like it works in some games (like this one) where the menu is visible. In other games (like my own) the menu doesn't show and the stats are invisible. Map inspect doesn't work anymore either. :cry:

by **Sh4d0w** on Tue Jul 31, 2007 7:31 pm

Seems to have stopped working for everyone....

by **Paulineee** on Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:07 pm

I haven't upgraded or changed anything, and it stopped working sometime in the past couple of hours. I did notice it was a little buggy on the new Montreal map, don't know if that has anything to do with it.

its weird because the clock is still animated

by **Coleman** on Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:52 pm

They maybe did the switch from country to territory and BoB doesn't understand it.

by **casper** on Tue Jul 31, 2007 9:13 pm

hmmmmmmm... *busts out notepad* :wink:

by **AndrewB** on Tue Jul 31, 2007 9:28 pm

Ok, found it.

They have changed the XML files.

Now instead of 'country' it is called 'territory'

All you need to do guys, is edit the script and replace all the instances (there should be only 1) of 'country' with 'territory', including single quotes in both cases.

I concur

RIP
Here Lies BOB
2007-2007

Many sad CC players
will await for his revival

by **AndrewB** on Tue Jul 31, 2007 9:29 pm

If stocksr will not fix that soon, I will upload my version for those who are less computer savvy

by **Coleman** on Tue Jul 31, 2007 9:33 pm

The problem is it is either country or territory still (some maps are one, some are the other) so you have to swap back and forth when you want it to work.

Nice catch andrew! If anyone wants to change their script just find it navigate to
C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserNameHere\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles - - - - and search (cntrl + F) for 'bob'. When you find the file edit it. Do cntrl + h and find all 'country' and replace with 'territory'. Been working well for me on at least one game!

Remember you may have to include hidden files in your search

Thanks narominded for more precise instructions.

hopefully everyone can follow

After the line:
var entries = dom.getElementsByTagName('country');

Insert the following code:
if (entries.length<1) {
entries = dom.getElementsByTagName('territory');
}

Tested into: Classic, Asia, Age of Merchants, Circus Maximus and Siege!

Edit: Nevermind, I was replacing. Fix works.

by **Night Strike** on Tue Jul 31, 2007 10:50 pm

It only doesn't work on the new maps for me. And I don't know how to find and change the script anyway.

by **Aerial Attack** on Tue Jul 31, 2007 11:33 pm

I believe this will also work (rather than digging through your user directory for "bob"):

1. Click on Tools/GreaseMonkey/Manage User Scripts
2. Select "Conquer Club - BOB" (left pane)
3. Click on Edit (under left pane)
4. This opens a notepad file
5. Search (either Ctrl-F or click Edit/Find) for 'country' [use the single quotes - helps to find fast]
6. Go 1 line below and insert the code previously indicated [copied here]

if (entries.length<1) {
entries = dom.getElementsByTagName('territory');
}

7. Enjoy

EDIT: Tested ON Middle East, Middle EArth, Siege, Classic, World 2.1, Montreal, USA Apocolypse, US Senate, Canada, Asia
