About this extension
Adds additional information in-game in Forge of Empires.
The use is simple, intuitive and without any clicks.
Main features:
- Allows to measure the activity of his friends (the columns of the presented table are sortable by clicking on their title): requires to visualize all the pages of the history to capture the information.
The extension captures the FOE history you are viewing in memory. The more pages you view, the more history will be loaded into memory.
To view it, just fly over the first menu that indicates your world in parenthesis (in the form frxx) followed by your name.
Known bug: the pre-loading of friends to the connection, to store the rank does not always work.
- Allows you to visualize the number of FPs to invest on a GB.
As soon as you open a GB, on the "+1 level" tab, the extension loads all the information into memory and represents it in 2 equivalent tables, accessible by hovering over the "GB Info 1 to 1.5" menus and " GB info from 1.55 to 2 ".
The "Block" column gives the number of FPs to invest to block the place.
On a red background, the place is not blocked, on a green background the place is blocked.
GB info from 1 to 1.5: gives the following columns what the investment returns with an Ark boost of 1 to 1.5.
Info GB 1.55 to 2: gives the following columns what the investment returns with an ark boost of 1.55 to 2.
Known bug: the investment of oneself is not always correctly taken care of
Evolution to predict: put in parenthesis after the number of FPs to invest to block, the number of FPs to invest for the current player.
- Visualization of the resources needed to finish a colony
WARNING: The information is not automatically updated when releasing a new technology, we must return to his colony!
- a checkbox "Hidden" allows to fold the additional menu which can be intrusive.
Evolution to foresee: to allow to pass the mouse in the table displayed (for selection or other manipulation) without it disappearing.
Update 1.1.1
GB Info: The name of the GB being viewed is now displayed in the table.
Addition of an options page, accessible in the options of the extension, allowing to activate or not each of the functions of FOE Sniffer.
Added a new experimental feature, disabled by default:
The display of the map of your city or your colony, flying over "Map".
The map is freely movable on the right, the position is kept in the user preferences.
You can reset the coordinates to 0 in the options, then refresh the game if you have positioned the map in a non-visible place.
It will also be possible to find on this map information concerning the incidents (area of presence, number or time from which the incident will appear).
This feature can add to overall performance: if you find that card management is too much for the game, consider disabling it in the options.

Added direct access to user preferences from the toolbar.
