Build 10 -- Configs and more GUI

[ElectronDF]

One thing for the future (hotkeys time or at least keys entry time). I would like a "Return cursor back home" key, so after I mouse over to a another computer to do something and poop hits the fan, I want to get back to my normal computer as fast as possible. PVP fighting last only seconds sometimes (like 7-10) and if I spend 3-4 just getting my cursor back to home so hotkeys work and my mouse works again, that is rough.

Not sure if I give enough credit. I truely love HKN and wish the best for Mojo. I like all that I see so far. I just need to bring it up once and then I will drop it. It would be nice to have a java version so I could use it on my non-PC (just a crappy receiver, no hotkeys, no mouse, just receive the keys sent from Mojo). Just like an option that would talk to a VNC server would work. (in case you could steal VNC code and use it)

If you are looking for options to put in for fun.
Auto-start on Win start checkbox.
Auto-update checkbox (maybe prompts that new verion is available and then times out to update in ## secs).
And later on, hide window to the taskbar.

I Just tried it, is it purely the addition of the buttons down the left hand side? I didn't see any toon icons, and not sure where to put any XML type files or what to call them.



Some other feedback on the update process. It may be related to my firewall, not sure. I'm using the free version of Comodo at the moment.

After updating, I launch 2 WoWs and then switch broadcasting on. Then I type in my password. At the first letter on the active WoW window, I get the Comodo firewall prompt for do I want to allow so-and-such? I say yes, but broadcasting still not working. I have to close everything (WoW and Mojo), and then it works fine, and continues to do so until the next update. At least this was the behaviour after updating to build 9 and build 10, and I didn't try build 6 since it was only about mouseover.

So.. is anyone else getting this? *Frowns at firewall icon*

This build has a huge amount of new code inside but not much is visible.

If you want to try the icons, make an XML file like the sample above. Save it to Mojo's data folder. (Later on you'll be able add toons from inside Mojo itself in an easy way.)

You'll also need some image files. You can use anything you want. Save them wherever you want, and write their locations in the XML file.

Finally, you may need to set the size of icons. That's on the new Appearance Settings screen.

Save it to Mojo's data folder

Heh, no idea where that is >.<
Mojo.exe is saved in 4 different locations according to my windows explorer search, and the folders are mostly strings of numbers & letters.

But if setup will be possible within Mojo I'll just wait.

This is happening on a single PC with nothing shown in "Connections?"

Yes - the Connection Settings are set for "One PC"

I'll look at the source code and see what it's doing that makes the firewall pop and remove it. Thanks for telling me.

Edit: I think this is fixed now, but I won't post the build till later.

Now I've narrowed down when it happens, I'll take a bunch of screenshots and document the next update, in case it happens again.

I have the firewall set very aggressively, so it checks on everything the first time it happens (including things like things like "mojo.exe is trying to modify the user interface of Wow.exe"). I have told it to treat Mojo as a trusted application and Mojo's updater as an installation program, but it doesn't seem to stick between updates. I'm guessing this is a symptom of this ClickOnce software you mentioned before, but its not an educated guess.

All by itself, without ClickOnce, the updated Mojo will trigger firewalls because it's a different program from the old one. The firewall knows this. You and I think of two Mojo builds as the same program but the firewall doesn't (and shouldn't).

Not sure if I give enough credit. I truely love HKN and wish the best for Mojo.

Thanks, I appreciate it. You helped enormously with HotkeyNet. Hard to believe two years have passed, and now here we are again doing the same things again. But this will be a chance to fix all the mistakes and shortcomings.

Yeah it definitely needs that. I'll do this pretty soon.

What operating system is the non-PC running? Mojo is never going to run on anything other than Windows or a Windows emulator or something like Wine. The source code is just too dependent on Win32 calls.

Auto-start on Win start checkbox.

I'm always reluctant to add this because Windows itself provides a way of doing this (drag the program's shortcut into Window's start folder). But I guess this is actually not so easy. I guess I'll add it.

Auto-update checkbox (maybe prompts that new verion is available and then times out to update in ## secs).

ClickOnce does this automatically every time you launch the program. Is that not good enough?

And later on, hide window to the taskbar.

I'll put that in as soon as the program has an icon.
