Re: Request checker for GC89Q8P and GC89Q9C

[Resolved] Request checker for GC89Q8P and GC89Q9C
June 19, 2019 01:17PM
Can I get two checkers for the following:

GC89Q8P Min 1 Virtual cache in each of 5 continents, finder must have visited the actual location

GC89Q9C Min 1 Earth cache in each of 5 continents

For both of these challenges the Canary islands should count as a find in Spain, not Africa. Same with Azores and Madeira which are part of Portugal.
Turkey can count as Asia, even though a little piece is actually on the European continent.

try it here
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC89Q8P/43475
and
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC89Q9C/43476

For this moment the Canaries are counted as Africa. I've already contact the script writer to make small modify to allow count Canaries as Europe. So, please be patient a bit.
Russia is in Europe and Turkey is in Asia.

Note - the checker cannot check your request "finder must have visited the actual location", so any virtual is counted.

You can check this off as resolved, checker seems to work great now. If I find problems I will ask for a modification later.
Thanks

are you using my checkers (43475 and 43476) or these of Pieterix (43494 and 43495)?

Yours because the output list was more detailed. I checked it on myself and even though I found Canarie island caches before my Egypt caches, it listed the Egypt caches in the qualifying list.

Please use the following improved checkers:
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC89Q8P/43658
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC89Q9C/43659

As the script writer does not respond, I've cloned and modified the checker to allow to disable the exception of Canaries and also allow to override any single region. I.e. if you want, I can override the Egypt's North Sinai Governorate and South Sinai Governorate regions to be count as Asia.

this is the code for the listings:

Thanks, I have replaced the checkers now and it would be nice if Sinai was part of Egypt.

ok, so entire egypt is asia, entire turkey is asia and canaries are europe.
Re: Request checker for GC89Q8P and GC89Q9C
July 03, 2019 02:39PM
Entire Egypt should be Africa
Re: Request checker for GC89Q8P and GC89Q9C
July 11, 2019 05:05PM
Yes, entire Egypt is already Africa.
so, resolved

Use the "adjustments" config...
Re: Request checker for GC89Q8P and GC89Q9C
June 19, 2019 02:14PM
adjustment works only for forcing some country to another continent (turkey -> europe), but there is special check for canaries that cannot be forced
line 187:
if c.country=="Spain" and c.region=="Canarias" then 
          continent = "Africa"

What about Madeira and Azores? I would also like that to be part of Europe.

Aha. Try my script then as used in https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC7W8XN/36914

I've already wrote the tags and contacted the writer, so I'll wait a bit if they modify the script. If not, I'll tag your script.

Hi Pieterix,
When I check myself using your script it shows that I have cached in two African countries, when actually I have only been to Egypt. It seems to include Canaries.

There's only one tag on my script, which requested Canaries to be included in Africa, hence the result you see. Whilst we wait for someone to adjust a script, you may play with these:

Since jpavlik is on top of this request I've removed my tags.
