[Script] WME Chat addon

I love the sort by distance!

BUG Report:

Certain links when typed into chat are broken by the display. For example I typed:

www.waze.com/wiki/WME_Welcome

It should go to http://www.waze.com/wiki/WME_Welcome

Thanks PesachZ. I reproduced the bug and it is fixed. Will be in the next release.

did a quick search and didn’t find it requested, is there a way to allow the chat window to be resized to full screen or even opened in its own tab? Like a lot of people, I have multiple monitors and would love being able to keep a chat window monitor running. Resizing would accomplish this since I could just keep a full size chat window running on another browser. It would also allow us to easily review the history (since we could see more of it) when the chat room is busy and scrolling by fast.

Speaking of scrolling, any chance to make the scroll bar operate with the mouse wheel?

Thanks for reading!

I assume you’re using Firefox? I’ve noticed the same thing and is one of the reasons I’ve stuck with Chrome. It would be awesome if this script could manage to do that, though!

yep, scrolling works fine in Chrome. Thanks for the tip!

I was just about to post the same request as another previous comment which was showing a users current state in which they’re editing. I did notice there is a ‘Sort by distance’ but I do not see this option. I’m running version 0.8.

Thank you!

Upgrade to the latest as this was a recent addition. Go to the Settings “gear” icon, and you should see a “Sort user list” option toward the bottom with options for No Sort, User Name, User Rank, and Distance.

Is .8 the latest? When I tell TamperMonkey to trigger an update, .8 shows to be the latest.

The greasyfork page in the OP shows the latest version as 0.91

That wasn’t working for me. Ended up having to have someone send me a link. Now my version is 0.9b3.

0.9b3 is the last beta.
For the others, 0.91 is the last release: try to force the update if you have a previous version installed.
If something doesn’t work, let me know.

Thanks - I couldn’t get it to force the update via TamperMonkey but I copied and pasted the code again and it updated.

Using .91, can you get the script to stop loading a new 1x1 42B GIF every second? I can’t review the Images in the developer tools because the list is constantly scrolling and loading constantly. This probably will eventually cause Chrome to crash. Not sure, but it doesn’t seem like the Addon is doing a good thing here.

Turning off the chat addon stops this behavior. Chrome starts using a lot of CPU and my fans spin up until I turn it off.

Hi Alan,

I don’t use any 1x1 gif image. Only PNG and yes, it reloads every second (user list sort).
I suppose that you use Chrome (I can’t see anything in FF: firebug or dev tool)
I managed to do something and it seems to be better.
It will be in the next release, very soon!

Perhaps it is a side-effect of something Chat addon is doing which causes Chrome to load it…

I filtered the network tab with “gif” keyword. I had a hundred requests by openlayers, and then nothing.
If I scroll the map, I get again those requests.
With or without chat-addon, same behavior.

Where do you see those gifs?

I see this picture continuously downloading (it’s a png)

yes, it is the transparent chip for user status when you are invisible.
It will be fixed in the next release.

v1.0:

  • German translation (thanks Bellhouse)
  • User name and rank on live user icon
  • bugfix TTS random failed
  • bugfix link not starting with protocol (without protocol://)
  • Button to clear message list
  • Button to export messages as text and bbcode
  • Added rank on ‘has left’ and ‘has joined’ messages
  • bugfix: status icon (bell or chip) not updated after a room change
  • bugfix: Icon reloaded every second
  • bugfix: now, if you change room, you will not post your messages in the previously visited rooms
  • Button to join a room by entering its name

Important information: you can join a room that already exists on the waze server (a country name), but you can also create a room by entering its name.
DON’T USE THOSE PRIVATE ROOMS FOR CONFIDENTIAL PURPOSES.
