Re: Site Updates
On mobile, haven't checked on PC, but the author search bit of the advanced search is not responding. All other tabs work correctly.
Re: Site Updates
For people anxiously waiting to see their fix, game, screenshot or thing on the site I should say that the next SC update will not be until next Thursday or so (Peter is in Afghanistan inspecting his opium harvest).
If possible maybe the ZXDB update could wait till next week too? We could add a bit more.

Re: Site Updates
Should I send some more MIA stuff or aren't you ready with old ones yet?

Re: Site Updates
A friend pointed out something similar. He is using a low resolution laptop, and the search fields are not accessible on both Firefox or Chrome unless he changes the scale of the browser. I'm still unable to reproduce it.
Re: Site Updates
It's still doing it, but publisher etc still work. I'll email Ricardo.
They are clickable further down in 'author information' but it might be nice to have it accessible in general too.

*it was a misplaced REM statement
Code: Select all

REM IF MOBILE=1 THEN INPUT A$
Re: Site Updates
Is anyone having mobile search problems?
It's working perfectly for me but someone has PMd to say they're having problems since the fix!

Re: Site Updates
Congratulations to everyone involved!
(yes, I'm involved too, forgive me this little ego boost )
BTW, why two entries for Kolobok? Something probably went wrong?

Re: Site Updates
Aah, I put Kolobok, Labyrinth 2 and Autodrome in the spreadsheet twice...
Re: Site Updates
I would have an extra question. Are 6 hundreds of inlays subitted by [mention]pavero[/mention] completely new inlays that were totally absent till last update or are they some improved quality scans of already available inlays?

Re: Site Updates
The most of them offer improved quality (higher resolution, without cropping, etc.) only. But some of them were totally absent up to this day.
My opinion is the links with old inlay scans (which were replaced by their better versions) should be hidden from SpectrumComputing site. But we need to indefity them in ZXDB firstly and [mention]Einar Saukas[/mention] still keeps silent about this topic.

The following message is from Digital Ocean, who are the company who host our website.
Start: 2018-06-06 21:00 UTC
End: 2018-06-07 03:00 UTC
During the above window, the networking team will be upgrading some pieces of networking equipment to improve performance and reliability for our LON1 location
Expected Impact:
There may be a few minutes of increased latency as well as small amounts of packet loss while we shift traffic to redundant devices. However, all sites should be fully reachable during the maintenance

Re: Site Updates
Is it possible to use this to get a list of only games from the Maze genre? (if yes what would be the text to use for the other genres?)
Re: Site Updates
Why would you not just choose maze games from the genre drop-down [mention]R-Tape[/mention]?
Re: Site Updates
I'd like to be able to post a link on the forum (web address of genre search works well but isn't transferable).
Re: Site Updates
Hi again [mention]R-Tape[/mention], if you look at the following post, it tells you how to do it. The actual at the end of the post is the one to use. Email me if you have any problems.
