It is annoying when you lose a feature that you have grown accustomed to having. I would hope that this won't be too difficult to fix, as the colours and numbers show up occasionally (perhaps when the attack phase first begins, or when the system is forced to pick a new territory to attack from, because of lack of troops or targets), but they definitely disappear as soon as you choose a different territory to attack from. I suspect this is causing the system to change the drop-down list of targets without letting BOB know.Leehar wrote:No offense, I guess it's understandable that this isn't functioning as it used to because of the change, but is it really such a huge loss to not have colour codes or troop numbers in the drop down box?

That kind of problem usually means that you have got your hands on the wrong version of BOB.regan the great wrote:i have installed and unistalled different versions of firefox but all i get are the words parsing xmlcan u help? i am not very computer literate so basic instructions would be helpfull.
Does this happen for all scripts? I know there is a problem with some macs running FF3.6 and greasemonkey 0.9.1, where greasemonkey is the problem.-=- Tanarri -=- wrote:I tried to update BOB, but when I uninstalled it to have a fresh install of BOB (which I always do) and went to install BOB again, it doesn't do anything after I press 'Install'. I remember somebody else having this problem before and I wasn't sure if they just weren't waiting for the countdown to finish to be able to install.
I click the 'GET BOB' in the first post, go to the userscript site, click 'install' and the usual script install box comes up. When I try to hit the 'Install' button after the countdown is done, the button gets pushed in as if I'm clicking it, but then it doesn't do anything. I have tried rebooting my system with a fresh instance of Firefox running, but still the same problem. Any idea how to fix this?
That is exactly what I am using.Sherk is it possible this is the reason for my issues?Do u think I should uninstall both this versions and try different ones?If so,which versions are u using?sherkaner wrote:Does this happen for all scripts?

No, that problem is for installing scripts, and yours seems to be working afaik.Big Whiskey wrote:That is exactly what I am using.Sherk is it possible this is the reason for my issues?Do u think I should uninstall both this versions and try different ones?If so,which versions are u using?sherkaner wrote:Does this happen for all scripts?

It's a Windows XP box that I'm having the problem on. I'll try to install another script on that computer later when I'm near it next and will let you know the result. If it fails, I'll also try to install a script on my Win7 laptop and see how that goes.sherkaner wrote:Does this happen for all scripts?

I'm having the same issues as Big Whiskey. Haven't posted yet as I'm sure Sherk is swamped with requests all the time. It's amazing how much you miss a feature when it's gone.Big Whiskey wrote:That is exactly what I am using.Sherk is it possible this is the reason for my issues?Do u think I should uninstall both this versions and try different ones?If so,which versions are u using?sherkaner wrote:Does this happen for all scripts?

Right, if you reinstall it should be solved. But I'm going to rewrite the map inspect thingy before I upgrade the version.Big Whiskey wrote:Big Whiskey wrote:sherk,any new developments?
Sherk,I really don't want to keep bothering u with this but was curious on how things are going?
