Thanks. I even lived with the annoying bugs I complained about earlier, but to have it break completely... sucks. Thanks again for any work that you do on it. I only wish I could return the favor!

Seems I couldn't keep myself away from the lure of coding and the puzzle of it... sigh... another period of time crucial to other work spent trivially to entertain myself...
It's almost like a game :)

Anyway I've updated whatever I could in the 3 hours since my post, and i now have a hopefully fully working version...

none so far
Due to small user base, i think it's been abandoned by Piotr.

there have been some more changes today, that break the script completely!

I am trying to work on them... let's see what happens...
I'll have to post it in my scripts. I'll let everyone here know once I have a confirmed working version, probably in the next 2 weeks, since i'm very busy this week.

Great script, except for the errors previously noted by other users. Any ETA on an update?

This script has taken me all the way to the Olimpus. Thank you VivaY Xavier, Thank you Piotr.

With goog information on hand, this is the best strategy when attacking:

As a general rule, attack monsters that have 80% to 125% your points.

More precise rule:

If my monster has no weapen, then attack monster between 54% and 100% my points.
If my monster has a weapen, then attack monster between 100% and 125% my points.

VivaY Xavier does this make any sense on first scenario? Weapen = no then select oponents with 100% or less points than my monster

var powers = getElementsByClassName("small_avatar_experience", "div", divs[1]);
var names = getElementsByClassName('small_avatar_user_name', 'div', divs[1]);
var urls = getElementsByClassName('small_avatar_attack_link', 'div', divs[1]);

and on second scenario? weapen = yes then select monsters 125% stronger than my monster or less.

var powers = getElementsByClassName("small_avatar_experience", "div", divs[1.25]);
var names = getElementsByClassName('small_avatar_user_name', 'div', divs[1.25);
var urls = getElementsByClassName('small_avatar_attack_link', 'div', divs[1.25]);

Let´s go for the perfect script. We can and we will.

Is there a way to disable certain types of monsters from this? I don't have a Slayer and it automatically takes me to the page to add it.

thanks

berto — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 23:43:07 +0000

I understand Viva y Xavier. I believe this routine told before to select monsters less than twice in points (I am learning java with this script sorry)

/* Get the list of all enemies */
var powers = getElementsByClassName("small_avatar_experience", "div", divs[2]);
var names = getElementsByClassName('small_avatar_user_name', 'div', divs[2]);
var urls = getElementsByClassName('small_avatar_attack_link', 'div', divs[2]);

Will look more into it to see if it helps to put it back and will report on it.

berto, i'm swamped right now, so haven't had much time to look at it, but as i see it, it has to do with the changes in Facebook. If you are interested i think it's the parsing of the tables on the fight page that's causing these problems. See if you can work something out in that :)

Example of script results as is now:

18 Attacks: 2 wins 16 losses.

Must say until now was a great script, but since it does not select anymore monsters less than twice your monster´s points, but any monster in the list, it destroys the attack purpose of the script, by attacking too powerfull monsters. Any clues?

October 04 Your Zombie attacked Marie's Vampire 3 times.
But Marie defended with a shield and earned some points!
» You won 0 of the attacks and earned 0 points.
» Marie won 3 of the attacks and earned 3 points.
attack Lennie! October 04 Your Zombie attacked Lennie's Slayer 3 times.
Lennie would have won defending points, but she didn't have any armour!
» You won 1 of the attacks and earned 8 points.
» Lennie won 2 of the attacks and earned 0 points.
attack Lennie! October 04 Your Zombie attacked Lennie's Werewolf 3 times.
Lennie would have won defending points, but she didn't have any armour!
» You won 0 of the attacks and earned 0 points.
» Lennie won 3 of the attacks and earned 0 points.

Great job Kaz, it works really well. I am looking at the script code to try to figure out how to select to attack monsters with just 1.5 more points than our monster. Can you help on this? thanks, Berto.

I have been monitoring the results of the attacks of the script and the results of the attacks have gone done drastically. Many more attacks are lost than won because the script does not select anymore monsters who are just 1.5 or 2 times stronger than our attacking monster. Now it attacks any monster on the list, even with 60.000 or more points, and the fights are constantly lost. The rule programmed on the script about attacking monsters just 1.5 or 2 times stronger was a success and a real winner for this script. Now it just contributes to make the defending strong monsters we attack, even stronger. The script can be one of the best with just a few details like the selection of the monsters to be attacked. If it can be arranged it will be greatly appreciate. Thank you also for keeping the script alive with all the effort it involves.

ViXaY Xavier, you were right; Your fix really fixed the problem. For some reason I just didn't see it before I posted my comment.

Thanks for your help.

But I noticed that the Auto Buy function apparently isn't working so well, either, even after your fix: At least I've run out of shield despite having plenty of money to buy for.
Or perhaps it's just me?

Perfect Vixay Xavier. I will be monitoring the reloadevery script. I always have the computer on and the facebook vampire´s application page oppend so will monitore it.

What I noticed with the new lines of code for the monster enhancer is that it does not select anymore enemies 1.5 or 2 times more powerfull than yours (this maximized the chances in the attacks), but rather selects any monster to attact. In the end, the scrip selecs to attack very high rank monsters in the list, and high rank monsters are much harder to defeat. Will investigate to see how far I an go. Thank you again, Berto.

You are welcome. I am aware of that bug and have contacted Piotr about it.

Berto, I assume you are talking about the Reload Every Extension.
I'll explain the way I've set it up.
1) Install Addon ReloadEvery
2) Right Click on the facebook page goto reload every and click custom
3) Now enter whatever time you like (i have it set to 60 minutes)
4) Now leave your browser open forever :P (I have a separate FF3 profile for it)

The only problem I had was that once it asked me if i wanted to send the postback data again, i said yes. After that I haven't had any prompts, so i don't know if that's because I haven't run into more errors, or it's because that it's working. I also haven't tried after restarting the browser, I think maybe it reset when you restart it? I don't know. Experiment for yourself and enjoy the Thrill of discovery! Then share with us :)

A sidenote: The reason I use the extension is because the script doesn't load when the page is incomplete and thus I think there's no way to handle it within the script itself. Unless you hit the try again page, then you can get it to work, i had it working in my old script, you can check it out there and hack away!

Yes, thanks ViXay Xavier, it works great. What it does not work properly is the "Reload Every" routine. Once it is activated, it starts by asking every how long we want to reload, and keeps doing every so often. While keeping in doing it, it bloks the Facebook monster enhancer script until reset again. Any insight?

very well explained VixayXAvier. It is done and I install also the reload script. Will be looking for the changes in the following hours to give the feedback that might be usefull for all. thanks.

I'm assuming this is happening with the new facebook layout only.

No need to upload. To modify:
1) Right-click GM (GreaseMonkey) Icon in Firefox
2) Click Manage User Scripts
3) Select Facebook Monster Enhancer script
4) Click Edit
5) Make the changes, Save
6) Reload page you are working on, it should work

IF it doesn't work
1) Tools>Error Console
2) cilck on errors tab
3) see what is the error produced by GM Script
4) Copy and paste it here (it should be clanm is undefined)

We'll see what we can do from there.

Yes, changed the script code and I am afraid it keeps on doing it. It stops when selecting the oponent to attack. I select it and then goes on. Do we have to upload the script once modified? How to upload it from own computer to greasymonkey? Thank you.
