I added the sort by regions. Try it nowby jpavlik - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
the main problem of this challenge is, that you should provide list of adjacent countries. It is very laborious and sometimes the countries changes, so you should maintain the list updated. And sometimes the borders are not clear. Google says: The United Nations, for example, recognizes 241 countries and territories. The United States, however, officially recognizes fewer than 200 nations. Ulby jpavlik - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
>> You have to log caches from neigbour countries. This kind of 'pairs' you have to get for example 8. I haven't thought this through yet, because I have now only 4 those kind of 'pairs', but next summer we are going to travel a little.

wikipedia: Kent is a county in South East England https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kent so, where is the problem?by jpavlik - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
The script has about 320 lines written from scratch, only about 50 lines I copied from another scripts. But major problem is to debug it. Programs like this are hard to debug as they must do many cycles and the system on project-gc does not permits large logs, so I can see only a piece of it. And another big problem is the speed - I spend about half of the time of coding to search how to speed upby jpavlik - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
UFF, this was hard. The main problem was with time. The script must verify millions of combinations, however I'm found a couple of shortcuts that speed up the script making only thousands of tries. Now it works. As i've already wrote, actually the checker accepts counties of any country, but I can modify it. In the case when a country has not counties on project-gc, i.e. Romania, the rby jpavlik - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I'm making it for any county of any country, however it's configurable. You can decide to limit it only for Finland if you want. Or only for i.e. Finland+Norway+Sweden. It's almost ready, I need only to debug it.by jpavlik - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

I made checker for regions. However, if you want, I can modify it for other type of areas. You can choose one of: country = USA, Canada, Italy, France, China state = US-Texas, US-California, US-Montana, Canada-Quebec, Canada-Ontario, Italy (entire), France (entire) - you can decide list of "big" countries that are splitted to more states region = US-Texas, US-California, Italy-Piemoby jpavlik - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
ciao Verturin I think that when someone does not make entire chain, it has no sense to view partial result. Finding 1 more cache can totally change the chain, maybe that this 1 cache connects 2 chains of 30 pieces making new chain of 61 pieces when a day before the longest chain was 30. So you cannot get any useful info from the partial result. I see that you enjoyed my Domino challenge of Gruby jpavlik - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I made a test, now the cache GC684 returns attributes_set_1=0x8d204083, so the bit 16 is not set. Are there other obsolete attributes? Please check it and filter it. I think that the solution of filter the invalid attributes is valid. It has no sense to create new icon for attribute that is not visualized in listing and is set in only one active cache. thank you for fixing this problemby jpavlik - Script development
There are few caches that has attribute that is not defined in the array returned from PGC.GetAttributeList() At least this cache https://coord.info/GC684 has attribute 16 (cactii nearby - what hell it was?). My script crached for the users that founds this cache. There are a couple of solutions: after getting attribute list add to the array the missing attributes wait until Magnus updatesby jpavlik - Script development
Congratulations, you have found a cache with obsolete attribute https://coord.info/GC684 what hell was "cactii nearby"? The problem is, that there is no icon and no name for this obsolete attribute, so the scipt raise error; I add filter for invalid attributes, so now it works without problems.by jpavlik - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

I can make it as you want. If you want only US states and nothing else, I can do it. If you want only US, Canada and Mexico states, I can limit it to only to US,Canada,Mexico. Currently the checker checks for US states, Mexico regions, Canada regions and any other country in the world.
