Update Free Rider Lite – New features!

Do not enable the "Filter duplicates" experiment. It breaks boost powerups.

 

The achievements display is going to look a little more natural in the next version of Free Rider Lite.

 

Version 0.0.34 has been scheduled for release. It will be published within the next few hours. This version includes various minor bug fixes, as well as a new feature.
New feature
You can now change the game's brightness from the extension popup menu under the themes tab in the experiments section.

 

I'm considering adding a feature to request ALL of your account's data (that is publicly available) for those of you who really want it. This would include tracks, ghosts, and their stats including leaderboard placements if applicable. There may be a way to generate the data quickly, but I'm not 100% sure it would be possible to do it that way. If not, the process will take anywhere between a few hours and a few days, and it will constantly run a script in the background gathering your data as long as your browser is open. If there is a high demand for this, I will have it implemented.

 

I just realized I could upload zip files here. That's shocking. Anyway, version 0.0.35 is on the horizon.

 

If it's only blocked on the chrome store, you can use that zip file to manually install it at chrome://extensions by turning on developer mode and clicking load unpacked, then selecting the folder you've extracted.

 

Sometimes you'll have to refresh the page. This occurs when the extension updates. It depends on what kind of tampermonkey script you're running.

 

Make sure you are on the latest version. You can check the version of your extension and update it here: chrome://extensions

 

Fixed an issue which caused the input display to disappear in version 0.0.36.

 

Chrome rejected this version despite having neglected the violation for the past 20 updates. That being said, I was forced to look into an alternative solution which most likely would require me to include the code to zip files in the actual extension. I found a simple way to do this while browsing the internet and manipulated it to my liking. If anyone else needs it — I am sure someone might find it useful — I created a gist on GitHub. Usage is simple:

Code:

let zip = new Zip('myzip');
zip.newFile('New Text Document.txt', 'Hello world!');
// await zip.fetchAndZip('https://example.com/data.json');
// zip.compress({ force: Boolean() });
zip.blob();

Anyway, I'm glad this happened becuase this solution works much much quicker.

 

The new version is currently under review and should be released within the next 24h.

 

Should be back now.
