Programming Showdex - An Auto-Updating Damage Calculator Built into Showdown!

[BOT Keith]

feel bad for making a 1-liner here but I don't know what I'm talking about so lol. smogon sets just don't import into the calc for me, they have a little loading animation.

edit: this is what I'm referring too

I reset to default settings and reinstalled as well and still have this issue. Any solutions?

No worries, your screenshot is helpful enough!

Seems that the sets started downloading, but never finished. Usually should finish downloading within a few seconds at most, so something's wrong if it's hanging like that. There shouldn't be anything wrong with your settings if the loading animation appears (would be more concerning if it didn't).

If you could provide me with the following info, that would help me out a lot!

• OS (Windows, macOS, Ubuntu, Android on a Samsung Smart Fridge, etc.)
• Browser (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, etc.)
• Showdex version (e.g., v1.0.6)
• Format (though it looks like gen81v1 based on your 3 Pokémon)

Lastly, does it ever stop loading? (Would be fair to say no if it's still loading after 30 seconds.)

Thanks!

This is so cool!

Hello, this is probably known, but wanted to point it out anyway.

Showdex simply seems to crash whenever a gen 9 battle starts:

 

[Kibo]

when can we expect this to get updated for gen 9?

 

[Dhrabb]

It seems to work (showing blanks sets) when spectating battles but not when battling yourself in gen 9

I know the extension works for other people, but when I try to use it I get the issue visible below.

Any ideas what the problem might be?

Is it possible to also add support for dl.psim.us ?

Awesome calculator but just wanted to mention a tiny issue, some stats for gen 1 mons show as 1 point too high! In gen 1 stat caps are 1 point lower because of how stat exp works (think it's the same in gen 2 as well). Here's an example with Snorlax, for some reason HP and SPC are correct and the others aren't.

Hey everyone! I'm back from vacay. Looks like calc.ps has been updated for Gen 9, I'll push out support for it ASAP, most likely sometime this week, alongside some other changes (like Randoms stats) I couldn't push out before I left.

Thanks for your patience!

Hmm damn, everything seems pretty standard.

Last thing, could you go into your Chrome extensions page (type in chrome://extensions into your URL bar), click on Details for Showdex, then verify that https://pkmn.github.io/* is enabled under Site access (or Automatically allow access on the following sites is enabled like in the screenshot below)?

Thanks! :o

Good catch! Might be a rounding error on my end since I know legacy gens use some weird rounding technique. I'll double check. Thanks!! :)

[Skooma]

is this actually allowed to use in tours? asking just in case

Whoops, forgot to reply to your message but ya sure!

I'll probably just allow all *.psim.us sites at this point tbh haha.

Could you let me know what gen and format this battle is in? Additionally, your OS (Windows/macOS/Linux/etc.) and Browser would be helpful info too!

Definitely strange that the row of Pokémon is missing (even if no Pokémon are loaded, there should be a pixel dot icon at the very least).

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... the rabbit hole continues... :o

When you're in a battle with the Calcdex open and it's doing the loading thingy, can you right-click anywhere on the page, click Inspect (or hit F12), go to the Console tab at the top, then anywhere in the logs, right-click, Save as..., then send me the resulting *.log file? (Don't think there's any personal identifiable information in there, but if you'd like, feel free to PM me as well.)

You may not see as many logs like you see in the screenshot above, but hopefully it'll help me narrow down the problem.

(Hoping that it pooped some error out onto the console since the Calcdex visually shows that it's still loading. Worse case, nothing's there, but we'll cross that bridge then.)

Thanks again lolol.

I get the problem for every gen and format but I believe the image shown is from gen 8 randbats.

why not? it's just an API to the usual calculator that imports your own sets automagically.

currently I get the error with the QR code on it so I don't even get the loading error

Gotcha, thanks! Seems to be a problem with initializing the Pokémon into the calc, hence why none show up.

Could you follow the steps outlined in this post so I can see what's going on? Or if you visually get some error, that might be helpful too.

Thanks!

Ooo ok, we're getting somewhere haha. Could you screenshot that error for me (with the QR code and all)?

im not an expert on this subject but i think this is simply failing because showdex has not been updated for gen 9 yet! i also get this error any time i load into a gen 9 game, and as Keith said it will be fixed soon..? (i could be wrong tho!!)
