Please test and let us know if they're acceptable.

Thanks for coming back to me so quickly. The checkers work fine for those who fulfill the various challenges but unfortunately they do not appear to work where the challenge requirements are not fulfilled.

The issue is the final overall total which does not appear to include caches found under the requirement for at least 10 finds of each type, unless all 10 have been found. I have given an example for each challenge.

I hope this is easy to resolve.

Firstly, please note that these checkers count attributes and not caches, eg. if you find 100 caches with both Dogs and Horses attributes, the total will be 200 and not 100. If you want the total to be caches, I'll have to issue you with new checkers.

Secondly, it appears there's a bug in the script in that it aborts the total attribute calculation as soon as it picks up an attribute that's not fulfilled. Let's see what I can do about that, once I have confirmation on whether you want attributes to be counted or caches.

eg GC8XJWF

Part 1
Find 500 caches in total, each cache to have at least one of the specified attributes.
Part 1 counts caches.

Part 2
At least 10 of each of the specified attributes must be found.
Part 2 counts attributes.

I hope this is OK.
Thanks

Is this what you mean https://project-gc.com/Challenges//53763

Yes.
Thank you

Maybe Abandoned is a better example https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC8XJYF/53765

Yes, except all the requirements for this one should refer to “abandoned” attributes.

Please test and reply.

I started modifying a script to cater for this, but vogelbird's option should also work, so I'll remove my checkers once he provides checkers for all 6.

Thank you.

Removed my checkers now that vogelbird provided alternative checkers.

I have had a look at the output from the checker. The first cache, GC8XJWF, is OK.

The other five caches need tweaking. Using GC8XJYF as an example, the words below in red need altering so that they reflect the theme for each individual challenge cache, eg for this example it should read "abandoned" and not "animal".

bleachedwestie fulfills challenge ? (GC8XJYF) according to https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC8XJYF/53765

ie
GC8XJWF is correct
For GC8XJYF the words above in red should be abandoned
For GC8XJYV the words above in red should be walking
For GC8XJZ2 the words above in red should be botanical
For GC8XJZC the words above in red should be family friendly
For GC8XJZQ the words above in red should be water based

Thank you.

Sorry about that, when copied I forgot to changed this'. They are corrected
