I thought I would be appropriate if someone could make a search on the UD wiki for firefox.  I don't know how to do it, but it would be easy to use for when you're running around and you want to find information about the suburb you're in as opposed to opening a new window/tab and punching in a search after going to the wiki site. - [[User:Z3rochaos|Z3rochaos]] 00:02, 16 June 2006 (BST)

== Urban Dead Leaderboard ==
I'm the creator of the [http://www.ray3k.com//urbandead/ Urban Dead Leaderboard], a fairly new website that ranks UD players by xp and level. So far there are more than 300 participating characters and it's still growing. There is more information available on the website. I thought it would be best to discuss it here first before putting it up on the page.--[[User:Raeleus|Raeleus]] 15:36, 7 August 2006 (BST)
:Nice site. When I click the link it says 403 Forbidden. WTF?! --{{User:Hhal/Sig}} 01:17, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

== Automatic Commands? ==
I don't know if this is possible or not, but perhaps someone could create a script that continually searches or fires at a target, instead of having to click "Search Again." Or, if someone knows of one, they could direct me to it?

== Question ==
Does anyone know which extension or add-on highlights the barricade level and gives its level number like this?--[[User:Memoman|Memoman]] 00:23, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
[[Image:Barricade-level.jpg|thumb|700px|right|SS showing optional feature]]
:I see its the "Barricade Colorizer", but it links to a .js that I dont know how to use without any instructions on how to use it.  So anyone know how to employ this feature in firefox?--[[User:Memoman|Memoman]] 01:17, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Since theres no official discussion forum for UDTool firefox extension I figured I'd ask here.  Does anyone know why the UDTool extension keeps coming back with "Not Found" in the section it modifies?  I dont even know what thats for.--[[User:Memoman|Memoman]] 22:09, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
[[Image:Not_found.jpg‎|thumb|500px|right|Problem with extension]]
:Yes Actually, It's the Zombie Tracker. Go to Tools>UDTool>More Options and disable Zombie Tracker. It was something that used to exist but it's creator has since removed, it's actually been gone for a while now. Leaving it enabled will cause problems with IWitness and probably a few other things.--<small>[[User:Karek|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev/OmegaMap|maps?!]]</font></sup></small> 22:25, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

==UDBrain Script==
Since the sign up process for this scripts forum is broken, I will post the error here in hopes the maker sees this and fixs it and the sign up problem on the forum aswell.

== UDWeather Netvibes module ==
Hello there. I have created a module for Netvibes (based on UWA, shall be compatible with other widget platforms (works for iGoogle, hadn't tested others)) . It polls Suburb infos from UDBrain data and display them (zombie count/barricade or barricade/zombie count) under the form of a colored table. Even if it is still being tweaked  it is advanced enough for a beta launch.
You can install it and take a peek here : [http://eco.netvibes.com/widgets/236202/ud-weather UD Weather Netvibes EcoSystem Page]
More infos here : [http://udweather.byethost12.com/ UD Weather HomePage]

:I'd like to see some indication in the color codes of how old the data is.  Maybe decrease the color saturation / brightness the older it is?  I'd also caution against doing something like assessing suburb danger levels mathematically based on UDbrain info, as the suburb danger levels take things besiders simple numbers into account, and the UDbrain numbers can be WRONG, because they can be out of date / no longer accurate to current events, because no submissions have ever been made for certain blocks, or because people can intentionally hack submissions.  {{User:Swiers/Sig}} 17:15, 7 May 2008 (BST)
:: 1) Age of color displayed : Such feature was on the mental todo list until i found out that it was rather "unobvious" to find out a simple color code that would make sense just in a glance. I am concerned that declining the brightness of such color code might bring more confusion than information (X level of elderness times the 8 colors). Anyway, note taken, i'll try to find out something (darker when more than a day)
:: 2) Computation : I do agree with you : Live data is the Key. If we want udbrain more accurate, we need to make it sexier, therefore the widget. Let's think virtuous circle :) My feeling about the wiki computation of suburbs dangerness (and correct me if i am wrong) is that such computation is more or less based on a few users testimonies mixed with a wet finger in the wind. The widget does not pretend to replace such wiki reports (my algorythms are waaay still to be tweaked, udbrain wanted to add ransacked status, etc) but at least it present some data. Again, maybe adding a time ponderation on the values might make sense.--[[User:Gambini|Gambini]] 17:30, 19 May 2008 (BST)
