The timing seemed good! Don't even need to refresh the page for it to update hehe

Yeah I really didn't want it to require a page refresh. I want it to be relevant at all times.

The refresh time is random(ish) give or take 10 seconds. you can see this with a few tabs open.

This is so if there are multiple tabs open they all don't make a data request simultaneously. This allows the new data to be saved before the other open tabs request it, they see the save has changed and use that rather than request it again.

Not sure if I explained that well, but if anyone notices a difference in timing across a few open tabs, that's why. It's just to reduce unnecessary http requests

Edit: And thank you for coffee Lust, perfect timing

I just noticed the RS Clock doesn't always update.

You can see it missed an hour.

Not sure how common this is but I might add a timestamp with the clan names so we can see when it was updated. I could also remove the icons when they fail to update. Not sure how to handle this, I guess I'll just keep watching and see how it goes.

Edit:

Looking though the tweets in the last 22 hours it's failed to update VoS a few times. The day before it failed 4 times.

That means if I always display an icon there is a 1 in 6 chance it's wrong. Not liking those odds. I guess I'll display nothing when that occurs. I had no idea it was so hit and miss. Hopefully tomorrow I'll make some changes

Update (tiny update).

I've done a couple of small updates to handle things when the official feed doesn't update. But since I've made some changes the feed has worked flawlessly so I haven't seen the updated code in action.

If the feed doesn't update there will be a default Seren symbol display that has mouse over text telling you the feed hasn't updated. Well I hope that's what will happen, I guess I'll find out eventually

Oh I almost forgot, latest version is Version 3.1.8.60

I'm off to get some sleep, gnighhtttt linkify family

Hehe, of course it would do that now! When I first looked at it, it hadn't missed one, and the feed actually updated (with the correct VoS) before the interface in game changed for me. Was a bit impressed by that

Good night, Indy!

Hmm, wasn't aware that page could be so infrequent Can't blame them (not sure how they even do it hehe).

At the beginning of this hour it showed the Seren symbol, as there wasn't a proper update to Trahaearn/Hefin.. But at some point it swapped back to displaying Iorwerth and Meilyr (the previous one). Not sure why, but thought you might like to know

Thanks Keighlea

I'll have that sorted in a about 30 min, need the next hour to tick over (testing something).

oh this what my problem is

Consecutive hours without an update is what I'm not taking care of. Will have it sorted as soon as the official clock updates. If it updates:/

There were a couple things I needed to change regarding my last update, since I wasn't able to test it. But now the Jagex clock is so far behind I'm taking advantage of getting the error correcting/handling sorted. 15 minutes of testing to go
