Digging System Update! [UPDATE]
Posted: Jun 9th, '11, 16:30
Hello everyone,
another big chunk of work lies behind me. I just uploaded the new and revised Digging System.
Changes and new features:
It has been tested in Firefox, Chrome, Opera, InternetExplorer and Safari(PC).
Sadly, I'm quite sure some users will have new issues with the system, since it now heavily relies on JavaScript / AJAX. Please report errors encountered with the new digging system here.
Otherwise, have fun!
[UPDATE]
I added the sorting options (I had them in mind but put the system online before completing it... and alas, people want it, and now it's there).
As for the InternetExplorer issues, I just tested the system on my IE, and it works just fine. So I assume it's a cache issue, and it's probably about IE using old or wrong script files. So if you are on IE and have issues, make sure you have the current version of IE, clear out all caches, and if the problems still persist, tell me what exactly you did to get what error state (screenshots of the error message are best...)
another big chunk of work lies behind me. I just uploaded the new and revised Digging System.
Changes and new features:
- - It now makes minimal use of Flash, means shorter loading times, and iPhone/iPad users should be able to use the digging system (though I can't test it because I have neither, and the sounds won't work on these platforms). On the downside, this means the interface will look slightly different depending on the browser you use, but I hope you'll get used to it...
- New feature: Dig Again button on the result popup - lets you dig in the same area again without having to click the popup away.
- New feature: Date change count down (bottom right corner) - shows the approximate time left until the daily dig count is reset.
- New feature: Filter by readiness - checkbox below the choose Knuffel pulldown makes the list display only those of your Knuffel that are ready to dig.
It has been tested in Firefox, Chrome, Opera, InternetExplorer and Safari(PC).
