    Third party API for webui tweaks.

    Expand the third Party API so that one can more easily create build calculators that work website side and attack calculators / auto filing of values. Munk seems to have an advantage here because he apparently has access to a special api only he can use; lets fix this so everyone can have access here.

    Userscripts.

    Maybe, but does not change the fact that without in game API support you can't have webui tweaks that work everywhere.

    For which features? Because I'm pretty sure it's cause he became a developer for the game..?

    I'm not aware of any new features to munkbot since he integrated it. In game wise that is.

    Auto fills, spell & army displays, etc, were all there in the original Userscripts. Also angelus' extension had them too iirc? I don't recall the name.

    Stuff like kd page graphs were possible with scrapping, until the target api came out which is open to all.

    The 'advantage' that munk has is that you can set his userscript to load regardless of where you login from, instead of having to load it from your browser.

    Probably would not give the same rights to other developers, as MUGA can't be responsible for their code not having malicious elements.

    All the ingame function does is load his userscript.

    And that allows his userscript to be used more places than would otherwise be able to be.

    This is basically going to kill, or extremely curb, third party involvement if it won't or can't be fixed.

    The "malicious elements" argument you made is pretty close to total nonsense. You just need to know how to code right ;p; and maybe add a warning about using third party API.

    Nope, there is no location that his userscript can be used now that it could not previously.

    Disagree. We've seen folks continuing to develop as third parties.

    If there is a third party developer that wants to build webui changes and not use a userscript on the client side to load via greasemonkey or loading the js natively on phones, they should contact utopiasupport.

    This is 100% not true.

    Yes, your still see third party support but your totally killing my interest and other peoples interest. While killing my interest is not so bad, its the other peoples interest your killing that is bad.

    ;p good luck.
