If you're having trouble with the link, try this one instead.

With version .419 of the PMOG toolbar comes many minor bug fixes, a lot of polishing and one major new feature -- a built in mission menu!

New Features:

- The new built in mission menu gives you both access to "Mission Central" the main PMOG mission page, and your own personal mission queue, giving quick and easy access to your queued missions. Find yourself with a few extra minutes during the day? Take break from passivity to take one of those missions you've been meaning to get around to.

- "Manage Profiles" has been renamed to "Reset Profile" and can be found under the P > Preferences menu. This function can now also be used whether or not you're logged in. If you're having trouble logging in, use this function as your first line of offense.

Bug Fixes:

- The "auto-login" feature of the toolbar has been fixed. Now, no matter how you type your username, you should automatically be logged into the toolbar every time you launch Firefox or Flock, or open a new window, so long as you have agreed to letting the PMOG toolbar remember your password.

- "Special" characters in passwords (such as !@#$) are once again recognized.

- Seers have finally been shown the respect they deserve, and have been added to the Associations menu under Help > Codex Pmogeus.

- The mine animation has been shortened; it will be especially short on Firefox 2.

Web Release Version 1.0.2

Additionally, today we are pushing out a new Web Release. For the most part, the changes present in this release will be invisible to most players, but address a number of stability issues, bug fixes and backend upgrades. In the future, we hope for new Web Releases to represent new features/functions for you to play passively with.

However, here are a number of important bug fixes in 1.0.2:

- Badges should again be awarded after tonight; this fix should address all known badge issues.

- Tool usage is again being enforced as a prerequisite for leveling. Please see this thread posted earlier in the month, or this Codex Appendix for more information.

- After posting to the forums, you will be taken to your newly created post instead of ending up at the beginning of the thread.

@Burdenday - the main link in your post goes to version 0.418. The link in italics is the one to the new version.

Right - they will both go to the same place in a few minutes or so. It's just a matter of Mozilla updating its cache. I added the one in italics so early adopters could grab it first.

I've been excited about this update to the web release-- badges are back and no more annoying navigating to ends of threads every 5 seconds! Awesome job, as usual.

The mine animation is so short it appears to not exist. I don't notice any red screen or window shake, just a box with the mine graphic/info.

@b.d. - That's what prompted my comment. "Especially shortened" holds a different connotation than "eliminated" to me.

Upgraded from Firefox 2 to Firefox 3. Mine animation still not appearing.

I like the new mission section on the toolbar! There is still no link to the forum in the toolbar menu though :( Under "help" would be a great place. The forum is -very- helpful when you have an issue or problem. I -always- check here first, and usually find a solution or a note about it being worked on. But the only way to get here at the moment is by going to a different pmog page and then clicking "forum" which I know doesn't take long, it would just be handy to have the link in the toolbar :) Pretty please? *bats eyelids*

@astrogirl: That sounds like a useful link! I'll run it by the rest of the team and see if we can't get a link to the Forums in the toolbar in the next release.

Thanks for your feedback.
