I don't see a pointer/false guess and the google maps opener does not work.

[Lengogame]

I don't see a pointer/false guess when using violentmonkey on Firefox (Fedora Workstation, Linux). The function with the coordinates works good, but the map opener (google maps) does not work. Can you fix this for me? I hope it is not too hard/difficult.

how did you install the userscript? through the unofficial greasyfork, or the method mentioned in the README?

[dharmik2319]

also, look around in the console logs to see if you get any errors from violentmonkey when you press the 2 key to open google maps. if you have the ability, try debugging by putting console.logs at places in the script

Any updates @Lengogame ?

Hey, I'm experiencing the same issue. I use chrome, installed the script using Violentmonkey & using the install with URL function. I already tried reloading the website, restarting my browser, I even restarted my PC but nothing seems to work. I'm not experienced with stuff like this at all, but some support would be great! @dharmik2319

[dharmik2319]

what url did you use to install it @JustMercyV? and do you see any relevant errors in the console? and what mode are you playing?

[dharmik2319]

try installing it on firefox and report back.

I installed the script using the https://github.com/dharmik2319/geotastic-helper/raw/master/geotastic-helper.user.js url, and I'm trying to play the casual Worldwide Pinpointing mode from Quickplay. I tried this on Firefox as well, but nothing changed. I don't really know what you mean with relevant errors in the console sadly, so I guess I won't be able to answer that. I can still use the 1 and 2 functions (coordinates & open google maps in a new window), but it doesn't show the fake pointer.

[dharmik2319]

Hmm, all these issue seem weird to me. The extension works just fine for me (on Firefox and Brave (chromium based)) and also on other devices.

Update: ok, it seems that the false marker does indeed not work. looking into it and trying to fix it asap.

[ZeonTro2]

Yeah it doesnt seem to work for me too has it been fixed and how much progress has been made? @dharmik2319

[dharmik2319]

no, it is not fixed yet. and i should probably add a disclaimer in the readme now.

[ZeonTro2]

@dharmik2319 oh alright, goodluck trying to fix it

[dharmik2319]

i am busy these days. and Geotastic changes too fast for me to update it. for now be satisfied with jist the coords (press 1)

[dharmik2319]

yes, i am aware of it happening. it might be because the mode was different. or you were lucky with the timing (check code to understand what i mean)

[Spad0k]

Hey @dharmik2319, I'm really sorry but I'm kinda lost in doing the script and how it works, I tried my best to understand but I don't know how to use the coordonate thing can you explain it better for me in a big text, thanks.

[dharmik2319]

@Spad0k just press 1, it should work.

[jackthebackpack]

any news on the marker. i dont know why but randomly worked for me then i reinstalled it now it isnt working.

[dharmik2319]

lol thats the thing. the site gets updated too frequently, and it is a pain to read the obfuscated, minified code and reimplement things. and the most essential part of the program, hijacking the google module, is a race condition. and anyways, these days i am really busy. ig you will need to wait till next year. sorry for the delays. you can submit a pr if you find something out, tho.
