Azhdar:
Good. I see that you now properly set the priorities on your wishlist.
Unfortunately, you just missed MaGog's update, so it will appear there in 6-7 hours from now.

mrkgnao: Two things:
1) When did you do it? Remember, MaGog updates its database only once every six hours. Last time was about 5 hours ago. Next time in less than an hour.
2) Regardless, I just looked at your public wishlist (https://www.gog.com/u/Azhdar/wishlist) and I don't see any priority set. I suggest you set your priorities via Adalia Fundamentals and check that they display on your public wishlist. Then wait for the next MaGog update and it is sure to appear on MaGog too.
Should I enable that "sync your wishlist tags..." in Fundamentals settings? Is it necessary for priority feature?
It seems everything is OK. Thanks for the help. :)

Yes. You should. Without it, MaGog will not see them. But you obviously you did, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to see them.

I waited for 6-hour update and then I searched my wishlist. It works perfectly (priority wishlist). Like a charm. Good job mate. Cheers! :)

mrkgnao: - read and process a cart with all the GOG games in it to deduce bundle discounts (all games at once, but requires up to 40 attempts to get past GOG's server errors)
Does that mean MaGog virtually tries to buy the whole GOG catalog at once? Fun! :)

And thanks for explaining the whole procedure, very interesting.

Yes. Except that a couple of weeks ago, this scheme stopped working altogether (no matter how many attempts, GOG only returns server errors). I contacted a GOG staff member on Saturday, but got no reply. If I get no reply by this weekend, I am afraid I will have to remove the bundle discount information from MaGog, as it is already becoming outdated.

Uh oh.
But doesn't it work even with less items in the cart at a time?

Suppose I remove one item from the cart and that item is part of a bundle, then I wouldn't know the bundle price for all the items in the bundle, so I can't really reduce the number of items in cart.

Ok, but at least you would catch normal discounts and just lose some bundle info. Not worth it? :\
Or maybe you could test the max cart capacity (what is it now?) and then add some known multiple bundles.

I'm just trying to suggest something :'(

The bundle discount percentage is shown in the javascript for each product... I'm sure we've been over this before when you first implemented the bundle and there's probably a reason it's no use but..

angular.element(document.querySelectorAll('.module-header--bought-together')).scope().product.series.discountP ercentage

angular.element(document.querySelectorAll('.module-header--bought-together')).scope().product.series.discounte dPrice.amount

Those two links when run in the console will show the percentage and price for the product when bought as part of series..
They return an error / undefined if there is no series.

The full cart scheme is just for bundle discounts. Normal discounts are obtained directly from the catalogue. They will not be affected.

Two problems that I can see.
1) I don't have a console to run this through from MaGog. I cannot use angular. I need an HTTP/HTTPS URL to get the information from.
2) The commands you quote seem to work fine for regular bundle discounts (e.g. X-COM), but not for sale bundle discount (e.g. BGEE), which are of course the more interesting ones.

Yeah, I knew there was a reason it wasn't as easy as that.
Leave it with me and I'll see if I can come up with any thing that might help. Having the bundle discounts and series discounts on MaGoG is useful so it would be a shame to lose it.

Cheers. Much appreciated.

If possible, try to find some place that lists the price of an individual game in US$ (in US) if bundled, not as in the commands you quote:
- the bundle percent discount (which is notoriously incorrect on quite a few GOG pages)
- the total bundle price (for then it is unclear what the price of each game in the bundle is, if they are not equally priced, as is sometimes the case)

Got it, the information is there, so presumably it's coming from somewhere. I'll try and dig something out.
