Title: Great Snooper 1.5 Beta - Help testing
Post by: Tomi on November 21, 2015, 08:37 PM
Hahaha ye, it was really quick, wasn't it? :D


I made this topic because the new Great Snooper isready to be released soon, but since it's not just a bux fix, but the whole application has got rewritten I would like to ask you to test it, because I don't want to release it with a bunch of bugs. :D It would be cool to test if the issues you experienced in the actual version are still here or not.


This version of the snooper doesn't have installer, you need to extract the zip archive somewhere on your computer. I don't suggest you to overwrite the actual version of the snooper on your computer, because this version CAN HAVE BUGS.


I will update this post when a new test version of the snooper is ready. So I will upload the corrected one here to be tested.


Please report in this topic the bugs you found including the operating system you use, a description about how you managed to cause the bug and maybe a picture if needed.


The new things are:
 - everything, because it has new code
 - new notificator
 - languages (the latest features still need to be translated, i will send pm soon to translators)
 - alternative wa support
 - some new irc commands for GameSurge, like /join #channel
 - snooper rank for tus login
 - new wormnat2
 - I will finish this list later, coz i always forget what i made xd


Version 5 (28.12.2015) - https://www.dropbox.com/s/iow024rl4i8hqe5/GS15Beta.zip?dl=1

Hoho, finally arrived!

Glad to see you fixed that "energy safe mode while playin". In old version, snooper was crashing every 10 minutes or so, if that box was checked. Also nice thing is that it's compatible with new Wormnat2. No more error msgs while hosting games. Picking theme color is what gives me a boner too..

Ok, enough of this.. I'm gonna speak up if there will be any problems.

So far - 10/10.
Ty Tomi!

Hmmm, some Polish strings must be shortened or simply particular controls/boxes need resizing a bit.

And where are the translators' nicknames?  :D

ADD: also no Italic font for other Gs users.

1. Where's "join these channels on startup" option? I remember seeing it at General tab in 1.4.9, but now it's gone. Or not?

2.

I am disapoint

I can see that checkboxes were moved a bit to the left, and descriptions should now be even shorter. We were not ready for something like that.
Maybe move checkboxes to the left side of the window? Like this:

[attachment=3]

This should give a bit more free space for descriptions.


.:Edit:.
wut
After I hit the X button, GS tries to re-connect to the server instead of closing... The "Connecting..." thingy seem to stay here forever.
gg
Or should I say "gs"?

1) New popup window slows WA
2) After minimizing GS resets selected sorting type.
3) Checkboxes should be on the left side indeed.
4) Double posts problem fixed, thanks)))
Title: Re: Great Snooper 1.5 Beta - Help testing
Post by: WTF-8 on November 26, 2015, 03:15 PM
Few more things:

1. Why disallow typing/copy-pasting of wa.exe address right into the box? For me, it's faster to type it than to select the file through the "Browse" button. (Same goes for all similar text boxes. Though I'm not sure if these are actual text boxes...)

2. Left-clicking on GS icon in tray results in an empty pop-up message which ignores the red X button.

3. The "LOG IN" button doesn't become gray when the window is inactive.

and probably a lot more stuff...

Same here.

Also, if GS switched to Russian, a nickname can not be "`Xan-GS-1-5", only "`XanGS15". Eng works well.

Hey Tomi i think i've found a bug.

If i join a game while league finder is active, after asking "would you like to turn off league search?" the snooper crashes. Or at least it happens to me, i'm using win10.

Bug number 2: if i copy a text line which contains an hyperlink the snooper crashes.
Title: Re: Great Snooper 1.5 Beta - Help testing
Post by: WTF-8 on December 05, 2015, 12:15 AM
1. [attachment=1]

This "{0}" thingy was supposed to be used as a control symbol/phrase which would be replaced with the current away reason. However, it doesn't vanish when no reason is specified (like in case if away mode is not active). This seem to happen in Polish translation as well, but others work fine.


2. Energy save mode screws up players sorting. For example, if one would enable the "energy save mode when snooper is minimized" thing, and then minimize and maximize the snooper, the players sorting order would be reset to nickname-based one. It'd ignore players groups, too. (Normally, those who are in groups would be displayed at the top, but not in this case)


3. IDK if this happens to anyone else, but I can't rename the first players group into "Buddies". If I would try to do so, its name would be reverted to default one, depending on the current language used.

OK, here is the new version of Great Snooper 1.5 Beta!


https://www.dropbox.com/s/iow024rl4i8hqe5/GS15Beta.zip?dl=1


Changes, fixes:

- The labels in the settings window have now more space. Hopefully enough for every translations.


Bugs reported by XanKriegor:

- Channel summary text is fixed when the width of the snooper is small or when the user list is too wide. (I was trying to fix this issue earlier too, but couldn't.. now I did something and it seems like it works xd)

- Usergroup name translations should be ok now.

- Great Snooper users have italic font style again. And I added an option in the settings to turn this feature off. That sentence should be translated also.


Bugs reported by WTF-8:

- I removed "join these channels on startup", because i felt it uncomfortable to type channel names. Now when you join a channel then you can select auto join on startup checkbox to enable this option. To disable you need to leave the channel and uncheck the checkbox. I think I will mention this in the wiki page on worms2d.info.

- I think moving the checkboxes to the left side can't work, coz then I should move other things too (like textboxes, buttons, select boxes) and those would not look good on the left side in my opinion.

- Now if you click X, GS will close.


More bugs by XanKriegor:

- I disabled tray popup while game is on

- Sorting bug is fixed.

- Notificator words are also highlighted now.


More bugs by WTF-8:

- I allowed to write into those file path textboxes.

- I removed that bug when you click on the tray icon. (Good catch!)

- I won't waste my time with the login button.. such a little bug can remain. :D


Bugs reported by Sbaffo:

- I solved that issue when snooper asks if you would like to turn off league searcher.

- Crash when copying a hyperlink is fixed. (Nice catch!)


More bugs by WTF-8:

- The {0} thing when you move your mouse over away manager icon should not happen when translations are completed.

- Renaming a group to the default name when the language of the application is not English won't work. This is a bug, but it is too complicated to solve right now. I think I will leave this one, because it's not that bad. However good catch!

- Links should work now fine.


Other:

- Hoster.exe was changed too, because it was buggy when hosted without WormNat2.

- There are 2 new sentences to translate.



About crash issues: we should debug it together, coz it's really strange that it happens only for you guys.

And thanks for the help! ;)

I updated the link to the latest version again.

I fixed some buttons' width and some text bugs.
I also found the bug which stopped the snooper to reconnect and fixed it.

And I added some new features too..

Ultimate bandwidth saving features: xd

I added some checkboxes in settings with which you can disable all the plus bandwidth things that the snooper is using. So you can disable the loading of common settings on startup, tus accounts, channel scheme, game list. Moreover you can disable IRC WHO commands too, which uses the most bandwidth of  the snoopers / game.

The server of WormNet works in a way that if a user joins a channel then the server sends a message that somebody joined. But that message contains no information about user client, rank, country. So the snooper must send a WHO request for these things. This requires about 3 times more of bandwidth than if the join message would contain those informations. So to sum this: if you disable WHO messages, you will lose all the information of the users expect their name, but you will save some bandwidth.


Please try to find bugs in this version, because in my opinion this is kind of close to a release version. Thx

Hopefully there are only some text bugs and the russian internet bugs left ;)

Hopefully this is the last beta version before the big release :D

Please try to test if you can find any bugs ;)


Translators: soon I will send you the last strings to translate.


New features:
- Export, import, reset settings

So you can disable the loading of common settings on startup, tus accounts, channel scheme, game list
If you disable loading of channel schemes (which is a one-time operation), then also disable game joining and hosting, because then you simply can't be synchronized with others.

Ah true, thanks!

Go to settings and click "Import settings" under General tab.

Then find this file: C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\ToOMiToO\Great_Snooper.exe_Url_dbanzgzjs4hx2svpoumut2oxupchuvao\1.4.9.0\user.config

I dunno if this is the right thread.

I was using Great Snooper and was thinking it could replace Wheat snooper...

But then I realized, it doesn't save conversations so it's useless...

Why doesn't Great Snooper save conversations like Wheat does? It's the most useful thing.

Ofc it saves convos. Click on left upper corner where it says "welcome komito" and then click on "message logs", all your convos should be there.

And yeah, it's much more transparent and easier to use then wheat, imo.
Title: Re: Great Snooper 1.5 Beta - Help testing
Post by: TheKomodo on January 26, 2016, 01:04 AM
No, it doesn't, at least not how I want it.

When someone PM's me, like Hurz for example, sometimes we talk about Darts stuff, so I close chat then, but with Wheat snooper, if I click on Hurz again, it'll still show the conversation we just had, with great snooper it erases it...


Also, when hosting i've noticed, if you change the details, then press enter, it hosts with previous host information, you must actually click on "create game" for it to use new information, that sucks...
Title: Re: Great Snooper 1.5 Beta - Help testing
Post by: Tomi on January 26, 2016, 07:57 AM

I'm sure Tomi meant on a host bug in 2.0 version. Sometimes snooper hosts games with old names, kinda annoying when you want big rr but in lobby it says aerial :)

WTF8, you didn't understand. Komo wants to see whole chat by clicking on player's name, without going in message logs.
Title: Re: Great Snooper 1.5 Beta - Help testing
Post by: Tomi on January 26, 2016, 10:30 PM
It's snooper bug. But I guess if you exit snooper with an opened chat tab then it will save the log. But if you just close the chat tab it wont.

The game name bug is a good catch! I guess it happens only when you host a game by pressing enter key. The text you enter into those textbox will be saved into memory only if the textbox loses its focus. So if you press the create game button with mouse then it should work fine.

Soon i will release 2.1

It doesn't have to be whole chat, just chat for that day, everything else saved in logs is sufficient enough.

It's snooper bug. But I guess if you exit snooper with an opened chat tab then it will save the log. But if you just close the chat tab it wont.

Hmm, that just sounds weird, but I guess you'll fix it anyway.

So if you press the create game button with mouse then it should work fine.

Yes, it always works when using mouse.
