v1.16 is published so the issue should now be fixed. Sorry for the fail!
v1.16 changes it so that viewing the reports via the UI no longer modifies your clipboard. The ‘Intel’ button will put in the comment the last intel you viewed via the UI; the hotkeys still change what’s in the clipboard and what’s in the intel button.
It also makes it so that if you’re using a device with both a touchscreen and a mouse pointer (like a touch chromebook) both input methods work all the time. The default game behaviour is that once you touch the screen, the mouse events are ignored, essentially disabling your mouse.
There is one thing that happen in turn based games, it appears that the submit turn button is on top of something else
Also, would it be possible to have an option to disable/hide the “concede defeat” button? I Personally 'll never click it anyway so might as well disable/hide it.
Hi @Fifo! Sorry for the slow response. That button appearing there is part of a “feature” where when you scroll a display the extension has hacked the CSS to try to keep controls you might want onscreen instead of scrolling them away (I find this particularly helpful in the messages screen). But I agree it does look ugly.
I never play turn based games so I don’t usually see this screen - can you confirm that if you scroll up so that you can see the top of the screen, the button and X move to a different spot where they don’t overlap the header?
I briefly had to play without this, and it sucked. I’ve gotten so used to the tools - particularly the battle calc by clicking on carrier - that playing without them was really annoying.
finally got the occasion to try np agent (i mostly play on phone and i can’t install it there)
I don’t really understand that feature : the “submit turn” turn button is in an annoying spot where you might missclick it while trying to use other tools like the ruler
when scrolling up to the top, the button overlap text, it’s too bad to not see the title of the tool currently open, but it can mask the name of the star selected
when scrolling down, the button goes up and out of the screen while the X stay at the top
but then when you scroll back up, the header doesn’t come back until you close the tool
also, np agent doesn’t have an on-off button, so you have to go to your browser settings to disable/re-enable it, it would be nice to be able to do that in only 2 clicks
It should work on a Mac computer as long as you’re using Chrome browser. It does not work on iPhones to the best of my knowledge. Firefox support is something we’re trying to make happen, and that would allow mobile use, but it likely won’t happen anytime soon.
Also, a note I should add to the post I made: Stoned Ape Tools works best when you remove Neptune’s Pride Agent. For some reason having both active seems to cause some bugs.
Chrome Only: v2.1.0.1 which was intended to be a hotfix for a bug where when you’re typing in messages with the realtime clock displayed it switches you away when you press a hotkey, was instead a botched zip file which means that the extension doesn’t load at all.
v2.1.0.2 is up for review on the Chrome store and if you’re lucky you will go from 2.1.0 to 2.1.0.2 directly and not see an issue, but this depends on approval times and auto update times on your browser.
If you have the problem, you can uninstall and reinstall the extension and that will fix it by forcibly updating you to 2.1.0.2. It should auto update fairly promptly, too.
For avoidance of errors, I made 2.1.0.2 exactly the same as 2.1.0. So it has the bug, which is that if you’re typing a message and have the live clock running for production countdown (the default) it will lose focus on every 29th second (that is every time the clock shows HH:MM:29) and the next time you type a hotkey it will navigate away. Workarounds: You can set the time to some other format (using %) or you can return to the message thread and your text will still be there. If you were composing a brand new message you have to return to it by going to the messages view and choosing the new message option, you cannot get there from an empire page.
I will upload a proper hotfix shortly.
My sincere apologies for taking what was intended to be a low risk high-priority bugfix and turning it into a disaster. It’s the first time I’ve tried to patch stable out of sequence and my process was incorrect.
Chrome v2.1.0.3 is now up which fixes all the issues. No need for workarounds for messages. If you’re the luckiest, you’ll go from 2.1.0 → 2.1.0.3 and see only improvements.
My apologies again. My scripts are fixed such that this error should never reoccur. Maybe someday my code won’t contain bugs and we can be reallly happy
To my horror I discovered recently that the help is accessible only from the ? hotkey and not from the dropdown - but if you press ? you’ll get a brief description of every function along with its hotkey. The Controls screen is just an awful hack to make it possible to operate the extension on mobile.
All the reports are accessible from the dropdown that is at the top of the screen when you choose the NP Agent menu item. Ownership reports and activity reports are only in the current alpha channel (v2.2.7 and later) and will be populated from the time you generated your API key forward. Very possibly this is buggy as it’s brand new code and I’d appreciate any bug reports! I normally access these reports via their hotkeys ; (semicolon followed by backtick) or :.
I’ll make the help more accessible and write some better help too, as this seems to be the #1 missing feature right now
- but if you press
