EB Unit List Reloaded

[SirRethcir]

Hello EB-Team!

I have recoded the EB Unit List.
It is now up-to-date and hopefully not worse than before. ;)
However the maps are not updated and I haven't touched "Unit Compare".

EB Unit List Reloaded

new Features:

• up to date data (EB 1.2)
• Unicode support
• improved layout and graphics
• "Reset" now resets all search filters
• search string is no longer case sensitive
• improved compatibility
  tested with:
  
  • Internet Explorer 6
  • Internet Explorer 7
  • Firefox 2
  • Firefox 3 (3.0.8)

EB 1.2 Unit List Reloaded (v1.2) can be downloaded [EDIT: link taken down: it did not point to the unit list any more].

The Online-Version can be found on http://europabarbarorum.heimstatt.net/ .


Next will be an online version without JavaScript. (*DONE*) After that "Unit Compare" will be revamped.

[Lovejoy]

Wow! You are a hero SirRethcir!

Fantastic work Someone should stick this thread.

[Tellos Athenaios]

Nice!

Bugs: right click event does not work in Opera (10, but I am fairly `confident' this issue will exist in 9.4 as well). That may be Opera doing JavaScript differently, but still. Glitch: the tool tip is not very well readable on the leathery background (black text on dark background).
Firefox 3.0.9 fares a lot worse: the page is not centered meaning that the left-hand ornaments are obscured, and you get a vast stretch of background texture on the right. Image does not float properly either, it is displayed as a block element. Oh and the tool tips are dislocated: the offsets caculated end up a significant negative value (which makes some small tool tips end up like 50px above the cursor).

On Konqueror 4.2.2 you will not get any JavaScript at all and therefore no unit list at all.

I would suggest using a keystroke (much more easily implemented across different browsers) or custom image-button instead. Plus it is not a very nice behaviour to steal the context menu. For instance, if I want to investigate whether or not certain CSS tricks would fix the layout in Firefox 3.0.9 I must first disable the JavaScript, make my edits, and then somehow `fully' re-enable the JavaScript without having the reload the page... Copying/Pasting text will of course not be impossible, but not everyone uses the Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V keystrokes either.

And yes, I suppose many of these bugs exist in the old version as well.

This looks really neat-

I know I'm REALLY going to sound stupid to all of you guys, but surely some lurkers are thinking the same- how do I use this? I've got it downloaded, not sure what to do with it or how to view it afterward...

[Tellos Athenaios]

You unzip the downloaded .zip file in some directory, then double click the unitList.html file ... next time just double click the .html file...

[delablake]

thank you very mucho!

[Phalanx300]

Looks promising, downloading it now .

And maybe you should put a installation guide in the opening post.

Hm, maybe.

I see you do not list the hitpoints correctly for special units like elephants and chariots. These have their "secondary" hitpoints added in battle too.

(Other units also have secondary hitpoints, but these are only counted for autoresolve. Similarly, autoresolve is different for elephants and chariots, where each rider gets as many hitpoints as the beast including riders in played-out battle).

[athanaric]

First of all, I want to say that this unit list is an excellent idea

I see you do not list the hitpoints correctly for special units like elephants and chariots. These have their "secondary" hitpoints added in battle too.

Cidainh have their HP listed correctly, but Scythed Chariots and Elephants haven't.

(Other units also have secondary hitpoints, but these are only counted for autoresolve. Similarly, autoresolve is different for elephants and chariots, where each rider gets as many hitpoints as the beast including riders in played-out battle).

What other units would these be?

[Jebivjetar]

Hm, maybe.

this one works fine for me

[stratigos vasilios]

Hello ladies and gentlemen,

Unless it is my own browser, the upload url is a link called Marcel-böse Tabletten.zip... of a young man?

Thankyou for the online version, any chance of it being able to be downloaded once more?

Many thanks,
SV

Good day fellow EB-Fans!
Sorry for the necromancy.
Due to the thread about the importance of elephants, I checked out the eles in the unit list and found 2 different kinds of forest eles in it.
You have the Elephantes Hulaioi Liboukoi, who have the same model as african bush eles and you got the smaller Pilei Ya'ar Libim. Those 2 have also different stats.
Is this a bug or are there actualy 2 units of forest eles?

Thank you.

[Tellos Athenaios]

Those are two different (sub-)species of elephants AFAIK one used by Carthage and another by the Ptolemies.

[vartan]

1) Does anybody need the offline version of the site that has real-time search filtering or whatever it's called? Because I have it.

2) There's at least one error on the site and I wouldn't call it absolutely horrible but it's a bit worrisome because I use the site (though am not dependent on it) for work on the wiki.

This guy ain't called Ktistai, he is actually supposed to be called Trabostates or something like that (sorry, I don't have EB running so I can't/won't check). In any case, the stats are probably right, that's not a problem. It's just a title thing, author accidentally titled it wrong, so just wanted to let y'all know in case you can't find Trabostates on the site...

I think we might have a misunderstanding. I am well aware that there are bush elephants and forest elephants in the game. Bush elephants are taller than forest elephants, but forest elephants were more common in warfare. Besides one entry "bush elephants" however, when you look up "forest elephants", there are 2 entries in the unit list, one showing actually the model of a bush elephant

Or is it just the tower that makes me think the 1st forest elephant is also a bush ele? I always thought the fellas from the forest were to small&weak for towers.
