I've been away for the weekend and only had little time to visit the forums.
I guess I fixed the Space and number keys bug. You don't have to reinstall the extension, the fix should be pulled automatically. Please try it.
Also to cross post and answer a few questions from the 8.0 Thread:
I included an 8 bladed wheel for testing purposes. I can probably make it so you can switch it, but most probably only one type of wheel will be available at a time.
Currently saves are not stored on a server, they are not even send to a server of mine. All of the saves are stored locally on your computer. What additional features do you want for the saves? Obviously a delete button, but what about sorting them? Or sorting by alphabet? I don't want to waste to much time into this feature unless someone needs it. I think only few people used the SR Save extensions with more then a few saves, so its easy to keep track of them...
Speaking of safes: I didn't start research on implementing a new save system. The problem is, the uncompressed internal data structures are bigger then 300kb. That means its unfeasable to: 1) Use a get/set system like youre used to, 2) use (extension) cookies to store them (or more then a few at least), 3) store them server side because of storage reasons.
Also I think its kind of clunky to use a file based system and I don't even know if its possible for security restrictions (java puts on me). So unless I find a good way to compress them to a few 10kbs, I'm not sure what to do with it.
The very first step is also still missing: I need to exactly identify what internal variables I need to save...
