@DrAcorn Thanks. And while at it, also a big thank you for all your Wiki-edits. I don't think there is a reason to overdo your script and add type support. These challenges aren't allowed to be created. They are actually against multiple rules, yet there has been a handful published the last years. I will transfer all tags listed at https://project-gc.com/Tools/Challenges?edit&by magma1447 - Checker news
You are probably correct that there is no need for the new method. But in my end it was just to add another method, use the same code as before, but include the badgegen-v4-include file instead of the old one. It didn't even take me five minutes to create that method. That's why I did it now when I had the whole badgegen-thing in my mind.by magma1447 - Checker news
I can transfer tags if needed. I can also update the config of the tags if needed. This is what the Doxygen documentation says: /// @brief Get the furthest found from home. /// /// If the user doesn't have home coordinates a value of FALSE will be returned. /// @param int $profileId An integer with the users profile id. /// @param array $params An optional associative array of oby magma1447 - Checker news
Method GetFurthestFound() added. Doxygen is updated. Generally it should be enough to use it with the profileId as the first parameter only.by magma1447 - Checker news
A few changes will be made today, or possibly tomorrow. Method GetBadgeGenData() uses BadgeGen v3 (this is not a change) Method GetBadgeGenDataV4() will be added. A method to get the furthest find will be made available. The distance from home will also be returned, but with a lower precision (like rounded km). This is to protect the privacy of the user.

Good suggestion. I copied your snippet and added it before the "More feedback"-block in the skeleton code. Will come with the next release. PS! I hope your code is valid, because my LUA is as good as my German (I know some, but almost not).by magma1447 - Method requests
It's definitely allowed to make meta-challenges today. From what I know it must use the attribute, but I am double checking that as we speak. Here is an example of such challenge in Sweden, https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC9230H/56126 . Fairly new (published with current Guidelines).by magma1447 - Method requests
It's a memory issue, the new polygons are much more detailed. There are pretty much three ways to solve this: * Increase amount of memory allowed. Will still be very heavy for the client. * Create simpler polygons again. Will look uglier (like before), and also takes some time to produce, only needs to be run once though, not for every checker result obviously. * Re-implement the map thinby magma1447 - Checker news
Throw me an email to implement GetCountryPolygonInfo() so I don't forget. Shouldn't take me more than 15 minutes when I am at my battle station.by magma1447 - Checker news
Was countries possible before? I missed that. I will have to add an api method for that as well then. For regions and counties I add an example script here somewhere. Search for GetRegionPolygonInfoFromCountry. I am just on my phone for most of the day today, so a bit handicapped.by magma1447 - Checker news
I am not at home anymore today, I needed a break. I have an email thread with sloth, but he got some outdated info from me, I will update him later today, and link this thread. @vogelbird: I can probably write a script that tells which polygons connects with which. I can play around with it later today or tomorrow. Might be great to have in the future as well. Do you think you could supply meby magma1447 - Checker news
Thanks. I have copied your code into his. I also added his old code into the history table just in case. And yes, Target is inactive, sadly. I knew him in real life. Something got too much in his life and he seems to have cut of most everything and everyone. A real loss from many aspects.by magma1447 - Checker news
@pieterix: Yes, I will edit my post. A bad copy/paste from my side. The new calls are slower, mostly due to the area calculations.by magma1447 - Checker news
I bet all those script depends on the now defunct GetSimplifiedRegionPolygons() and GetSimplifiedCountyPolygons(). Since the scripts don't need the polygons themselves (I think and hope) there is no sense to passing the whole polygon via the scripts. Not the least now when there are higher precision in the polygons. Project-GC don't have any "simplified" anymore either. Theby magma1447 - Checker news
I think we have found the issue. Next release will include a fix. It's not a new bug though. MapCounties did not show polygons over areas which had zero geocaches (including archived) when providing the region. If not selecting a region it was shown.by magma1447 - Miscellaneous
I will implement a new version of GetSimplifiedRegionPolygons and GetSimplifiedCountyPolygons. The rest I haven't looked at yet.by magma1447 - Checker news
Where do you see this problem and how do we reproduce it? It might very well be fixed now together with other fixes, but without a reproduction case we do not know.by magma1447 - Miscellaneous
Adding these 3 new methods, should be available in 5-10 minutes: /// @brief Returns a list of region names given a country /// /// @param string country public static function GetRegionNamesInCountry($country) { /// @brief Returns a list of county names given a country /// /// @param string country public static function GetCountyNamesInCountry($country) { /// @brief Returnsby magma1447 - Checker news
Seems like at least those two scripts are using GetSimplifiedRegionPolygons() for something completely different than its meant for. I knew about this method when I made this release, and I knew it would stop working, but I didn't think it was used. I will implement a new method that actually does what these scripts wants.

@DrAcorn That is correct, that data doesn't exist anymore. I will investigate how it's used and what to do.by magma1447 - Checker news
Just realized there are a few checkers that's broken due to outdated JSON files used with PGC.GetJsonData(). Got a report about https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC43JTY/29431 (by sloth96) for example. There are probably more of them. I could try to backup all the json files tomorrow and run a script that automatically replaces those names we believe are safe to automatic update. However,by magma1447 - Checker news

I am preparing for a release for tomorrow (Wednesday). If something unexpected happens or shows up it might be delayed with one more day. The above link with updated names (difference between now and future) has been updated (several times). It should now be final. 30 Challenge checker tags will be disabled by the system because we couldn't solve them ourselves. It's these: 21724by magma1447 - Checker news

As you already know we are updating polygon data from time to time. Next time, will be a huge update, causing a lot of issues.
