Board Game Arena

I don't know if someone already said on the previous pages (i search but can't find a mention !)
Maybe it could be a good idea to add a sound notification when it's our times to play ?
We can imagine a sound of bird for Wingspan, fire for Living Forest etc...

Edit : i saw you have a github, i can try to develop this and propose to you if you agree with this ?

I don't think it would be a great idea to have a different sound for each game, as there will soon be a thousand to manage and the files must be included in the extension.
In principle, why not play a sound, but perhaps only when you go from the “I'm not expected on any table” state to the “I'm expected on a table” state... and make it a deactivatable option, because I think that might annoy a few people
If you've got a bit of time to come up with a piece of code that does this, we'd be happy to have a look!

BGA already does this so it would only be useful for people with turn based games who do not have a move ready in any game.

Even in this situation I think it should be off by default, if it's added.

You are right... not sure it's really useful so.
Anyone else have an opinion on this?

Version 1.9.43 is now available for Firefox.
I think it fixed all issues ... but please let me know if you found something!

The version 1.9.41 is also available for Google Chrome and it fixes the issues with home page.

Just wanted to jump on and say thanks for taking my modest changes to your great extension all the way to the goal line! It's really great to see this on the mozilla addons site. Thanks again!

As Flavien told you on github, we're glad you offered to help. It was just what we needed to get started

For everyone:

A new version 1.9.44 is available for Firefox (and soon for Google Chrome too, as soon as it's approved by Google).

I think I've finally managed to fix an old problem that caused the screen to flash white when using dark mode, especially when browsing the forum or refreshing the page.
It was tolerable on Google Chrome, but not at all on Firefox ...
Don't hesitate to give me your feedback on this!

Edit: I've just noticed that the screen flashes white once, when you arrive on the forum, but then when you browse the forum there are no more problems.
I'll have to look into this for the next version

That's exactly my situation, i play only in turn based game, and i've not my eyes always on the number of tables that waiting for me, working on other stuff on my computer.
Of course it will be off by default
I will look at the code !

Hello,

a new version is available, adding as usual new games managed for dark mode, but also the functionality proposed by “Un Papeur”.
Thanks to him for the quality code, which we've included in the project almost as is

So if you're using Google Chrome, you now have a new option for playing a sound notification if you're expected at a table. The notification is only played if you weren't previously expected at any table...

For the moment, it doesn't work on Firefox, so this option isn't visible. Without getting into technical considerations, the way to play a sound in a Google Chrome extension or in a Firefox Add-on is not at all the same

Edit: I just add the possibility to customize the sound of the notification, available soon

I've just released a dark mode fix for Sea Salt & Paper, Evergreen, Yatzy, Newton and Tiny Turbo Cars.
Concerning Evergreen, I'm not super satisfied, but I don't see how I can do any better

Hello, thank you for your work.

Concerning Evergreen, there is a discrepancy between these two zones.


Personnally, I think this is easier to know the kind of the card with the real colors
