AJAX BOB 4.7.1 Development/Discussion (don't post bugs here)

In the new version also the stats for the players that are already eliminated are shown. How can I get rid of them? It's kind of annoying that you see that much info while those players are out already.

That was done on purpose...

Always show everyone - Even if someone has been killed - they will always be shown now - this is so that people can still see the totals missed column etc.

Can't you make an option in the menu, so you can choose if you want to see eliminated players or not?

Yep - I'll add it to the list of recommendations.

If I am using the drop game confirmation script already, will this cause problems? Should I just uninstall the other script?

Probably.

Either turn my one off - or remove the other one... not that BOB's version is more powerful - as it should work throughout the forum - not just mygames 2. (Although I'm a shade worried about that comment as I'm not sure if I tested it!)

The new additions to BOB this morning are extremely helpful, yeti_c, excellent work.

[Optimus Prime]

Just realized something this morning. If you collapse the medals and stuff on someones avatar using BOB, it also hides their Team CC/Moderator badges and information. Now, I'm not so prideful as to say it is a big deal if people don't know I'm a tournament director, but I'm wondering if just to make sure people know who is who if it would be a good idea to not have that part hidden?

Your coloured name is still visible - I'm plenty sure this is enough to distinguish you by.

OMG, why didn't I read this BEFORE I installed 4.6.1...

suggestion: in the My Games screen, the Time Remaining counts down to the next players turn, not necessarily "my" turn.

Could the screen show somewhere the fraction of (how many players have taken their turns) / (players in the game - 1)

If that could be used to re-order the display, that would be even better.

So, in an 8 player game, the display would show that 5/7 players have taken their turn before I get to go again, and the time remaining (same as is displayed now) for that 5th player.

thanks for BOB!

yeti, was there a reason for adding that points total in the Elimination summary?? All it shows is the exact same thing as above, just with a - sign.

Then I would suggest removing it for the other options.

It's also neater - hence why I left it in for all types.

I like the "Hide" button on the continent state column. And I know you can already do this in setting, but it would be a nice feature to have a "hide" button for the text map. Most maps I play it doesnt' take up much room so I like to have it on, but for some it's so big you scroll forever to get to chat. Just a "hide/unhide" would be a little more user friendly than having to change the config globally for every map. Just a suggestion

There is the "Scrollable" Button though?

Seems like we have best of all worlds at the moment? i.e. you have 2 different detail levels - you can turn it off - and you can make it scrollable?

I've been wondering for quite some time if there was anything you could add for the more complicated maps. I haven't really been interested in the newer maps because they are very large and it's hard to determine the bonus areas. Any way if you put the cursor where it shows the bonus, that it would highlight terr's in the bonus area like it does for terr's occupied by players ?

You need to either a) use the text map - b) use the Continent Overview.

Yes- I see. I was referring more along the lines of putting the cursor over say N. America and having all 9 terr's bracketed or highlighted. Thanks
