IE 11 and hell no! lol I want to check it again but the guy that started the game with me didn't move again for me to take another look. My ff browser was hijacked and I was forced to use IE, that's the only reason I noticed it. After nearly 48 hours of digging and removing I think I got things back to normal at least where I can use ff again.

I'm going to keep an eye on it though when he moves again.

Things would look normal, then when you hit the your move button, this other board was layered above and zoomed in so close it was almost impossible to see much of the board at all.

I wanted to ask too. With the board rotated, when you hit your turn the board switches back. Any way to get it stay rotated, instead of always playing from the opposite side?

[Wormopolis]

Eton asked about that too.. I cant keep it rotated or when you drag the piece it goes the opposite direction. apparently the library was written to assume things are normal. I cant change the library. I may try something later, but Im still at risk of running out of space for code, and I want to incorporate the notification system still.

have you chacked that your zoom setting is normal? try hittng ctrl-0

I managed to clean my system of the virus so am back to ff.

Found a bug though.




I'm black and its not letting me move my rook up to block the check.

looks like kingcheck function needs another tweak.

on the plus side, your game isnt really dead. once I fix the function, it will give you the turn button again. its just missing the rook block for some reason.

I wasn't worried about the game being dead. I figure to just update the plug in and we're good to go.

for anyone who has this thread bookmarked because they use the plugin (or anyone who just uses it), in planning the companion plugin for notifications, Im going to have to resort to a super key in order to store notifications. but that leaves a lot of unused space. so I was thinking of maybe having it store wins/losses as well. any other ideas of things that might be worthwhile to store?

[Pebble]

If you're going to store wins/losses in a super key, why not throw in a ranking system based on that data?

[Wormopolis]

ranking among the other players or like a title ranking based on number of wins?

[Pebble]

Ranking/league table for all the players. That would let players know who is at a similar playing level as themselves.

[Wormopolis]

that would require a super forum key which would negate the primary goal of notifications though.

Ah, I thought from this :

That was the way you were going to go.
Are you going to use a super USER key? The members score (how ever you wanted that to work) could be saved in that key?

Just throwing some ideas out there.... I did a (quite complicated, more than you'd need for this) auto league table for my own site using a super key but I'll have to go and have a look how I did it, as it was quite some time ago and I've since used those brain cells for other things!

[Wormopolis]

Yeah in order for one person to send a "it's your turn " notification to another player, I have to push to a array formatted super user key. I could use a super forum key, but if there are potentially a lot of notifications it would fill up. But maybe not. Maybe I'm assuming too much there. I only really need to store user id and thread id. So the max would be around 3200 stored notifications...

I would have to overcome simultaneous key writing if I used a forum key though....

Ok, I have a dumb question. Why does it have to store all notifications? Can't it dump a notification once its been responded to via play?
