Due to Cold Phoenix is going to stop updating this i will take over and try my best, I take no responsibility for it working badly or any bugs and all credit is to the author he did an excellent job.

Future update ideas:

Moved to forum post for shear size issues

Contact methods

- You can get me on the script forum or chat channel which i'm in as much as possible. I'm not interested in helping with other scripts.

- AE Extra CP Chatroom (updated link) - I shall personally be in this room most of the time, irc server irc.freenode.net, channel #aeextras

To all people without these already, MAKE SURE you have these scripts installed (and in the case of adblock make sure you have a filterset loading refer to its site for that). There are hidden iframes on the battlecalc now and i highly recommend these addons to avoid them and other sites junk.

Noscript - To block advertisers javascript running and avoid exploits
Adblock plus - To block the sites these iframes are loading open 'blockable items' and find the frames block those pages and your done.

    Updated (4.89):

    Sincere appologies for being so long releasing a new version, lack of interest in ae and personal projects took me away for a while.

    This is a hotfix to apply some of the many changes that are having to take place, not all bugs are addressed yet. New layout btw is some of the worst html i have ever delt with, nested tables to kingdom come.

    • Edit: Webchat link has been altered to the freenode based one, please remember i shall try to be in that channel as much as possible for support but i may not be active 24/7.
    • Bugfix: Numerous fixes to gathering page sections internally (to address changes now and in future).
    • Bugfix: Fixed base data collection.
    • Bugfix: Fixed multiple bugs with new layout.
    • Removal: AeProject has been completely removed, this will be standalone in future, to ensure security for those who can't understand the code. No part of extras will ever be used to exploit data from anyone and even given just the rumours i have decided to completely seperate aeproject.
