I converted my script into a Greasemonkey script (attached), showing the live log on the right of the game window. The result looks like this:

To use it you have to install Firefox with the Greasemonkey plugin and open the attached file with 'File'>'Open File...'

Will it also work on Chrome/Greasemonkey?

I'm not sure about how greasemonkey works on chrome, but I have the script running with chrome right now. Steps:

1. Open Goko_log_prettifier.user.js with a text editor
2. Select all the text and copy it to the clipboard
3. Start a new game on Goko.
4. Press ctrl-shift-j to open the chrome dev console.
5. Paste and press enter

The log might not appear till you've clicked a few cards.

If you'd like to have the logs appear the dev console (no highlighting, but you can undock the window by clicking the left most button on the bottom of the dev window), follow the same steps as before, but copy/paste this instead:
 

Code: [Select]

Dom.LogManager.prototype.old_addLog = Dom.LogManager.prototype.addLog;
Dom.LogManager.prototype.addLog = function (opt) {
    this.old_addLog(opt);
    console.log(opt.text);
};

Thanks! I got this to work in Chrome. This thing is great.

Got it working in FF after a few tweaks.  For my 1920x1080 monitor, I had to change:

position:absolute; overflow:auto; left:1020px;
var w = window.innerWidth - 960 - 80;

Perhaps that will help other playing at the same resolution.

Also: OMG THANK YOU THIS ROCKS SO HARD.

[Kirian]

In all seriousness, though, can this get a sticky?

I agree this should be stickied. It should actually probably go in the first post as well so people can more easily get to the code. Anyway, this goes to show that if Goko won't do it, someone else will. The log is quite nice. It is great to have it out all the time while playing.

Here is the github project I created:
https://github.com/nutki/Goko-Live-Log-Viewer

I know of some layout issues as for now I just reapply the layout each time a new log line is produced. So resizing the window is expected to break the layout until the next log event. As this is my first greasemonkey script, I don't know how to properly tap to the widow resize event (after original goko handler triggers). I tried to do that on a timer instead (the traces of this are in the source code), but also did not get the results I wanted.
Basically the layout adjustment code is currently:

Code: [Select]

document.getElementById("myCanvas").style.marginLeft="0px"; // move the main game window to the left;
var w = window.innerWidth - 960 - 10; // log window width is total window size minus 960 for goko viewport and 10 for padding
var t = (window.innerHeight - 640)/2; // 640 is goko window height
newLog.setAttribute("style", "position:absolute; overflow:auto; left:960px; width:"+w+"px; top:"+t+"px; height:640px; background-color: white; z-index: -1");

And I agree this should be probably now a separate thread. If somebody splits everything from my previous post, I can edit it then to make it more informative.

[qmech]

You fixed Goko!  It's now just about playable.

I tried and failed to work out how to get the log to display somewhere permanently (never mind formatted).  Well done for figuring it out!

[loppo]

this sounds great. I tried to make it work in chrome, but i failed terribly. all i achieved was that goko stopped working. In the dev console there appeared a lot of red words. I admit that i have very little computing skills, so can anybody of you give an foolproof explanation of what to copy where.

Please

Hmm, got it working on FF, but having layout issues like 1wheel.

Same here. For me, the log is partially covered up by the play area (the log needs to be moved to the right in order to line up, like the screenshot). Which parameters in the code should I adjust?

Edit: Kirian found the places to adjust this.

[Watno]

Great thing.

Would it be possible to relocate chat too?

This works for me, too.

nutki -
I sent a pull request with the layout changes and a working onresize call.

Watno-
Where do you think the chat should go?

If you copy/paste the 4 line snippet I posted above and post a screen shot I might be able to help.

I was looking to see if the point tracker could be ported to goko and it turns out drheld already done most of the work several months ago:

I sent him a message asking if he wanted any help/if he was planning on putting it out anytime soon.

[Kirian]

Argh not the point tracker extension!!

Chat:  At my resolution, things would work best if everything were shifted upward about 80px, then chat was placed below.

[Watno]

Ideally, it would be possible to customize where everything goes, but Kirian's suggestion is what I imagined too.

[Beyond Awesome]

Agreed. What Kirian said.

Oh I see. This is a little tricker than it should be since the chat box is implemented with canvas, but I'll look into later tonight.

[Kirian]

Well, it *is* possible to customize it... you just have to go in and change the code slightly.

Thanks to 1wheel's input I realized that the Goko viewport frame is not constant size. On my small laptop screen is actually a bit smaller (960x640) than on other devices (1024x768). I modified my script to be independent of that:
https://github.com/nutki/Goko-Live-Log-Viewer/raw/master/Goko_Live_Log_Viewer.user.js

The chat window can be moved away in similar fashion, I believe. It can be a bit more complex as it also requires input. The added value would be standard editing options and copy and paste for free.

Thank you for the offer. I fiddled around a little bit and found out that i forgot to press "Enter" after copy/paste. so no wonder it didn't do anything.

i feel real silly now.

[Slyfox]

This is really, really nice.  I would agree that this goes a long way to make Goko more playable.

I was considering adding a few lines to the script to also colorize "shuffles deck" as it would be nice to be able to quickly skim the log for that.  Would anyone else find that useful?  If so, any preference on how to highlight it?  Maybe some sort of inverse color scheme like what is used for victory point chips?  Or simply putting it in bold?

[^_^_^_^]

Please don't.

[Beyond Awesome]

I'm not the best at this script stuff. Is there some way I can put in the script so I don't have to add it in each time I log into Goko?

[bedlam]

Is this something that someone with no programming experience should avoid messing around with? I can't seem to make heads or tails of any of this...Or can someone give me an step-by-step way to put this into Chrome? Specifically I can't figure how to paste the code after I pres ctrl-shift-j in a goko game.

[rrenaud]

If some programmer wants to make this easy on others, you can distribute it via the Chrome Web Store (for free).  Then installing it becomes super easy.

[Watno]

Since the last goko update the main game screen stays in the middle of my screen, with the log on its right being cut off. Before the upfate the main screen would move to the left. Does anyone else have this problem / know how to fix it?
