General Information

About

This application can play the Trivia game on the Galaxy website. With this app it is possible to get in the daily top-list and recieve the reward. It works only on PC. There are no any plans to create it for mobile phones.

Trivia game

It's a kind of quiz. You choose the topic and then answer on 5 questions. Each question has four answers, your target is to choose the correct one. I found the video of gameplay somewhere on youtube.

Troubleshooting

• message ERROR: NO USER KEY DATA
  • Ask me about demo user key. The app works using connection with the external server for getting correct answer. The user key is needed for getting response from the server.
• status "BLACK"
  • No connection with the external server. Check your internet connection.
• status "RED"
  • The external server didn't find user key in the database. Contact me.
• status "YELLOW"
  • Demo period is expired, the app will continue to work, but will choose random answers in the Trivia game.

Known bugs

• when headless mode is off it doesn't work if menu sidebar is hidden (this happens on small screen resolutions)
• soft stop button doesn't work correct in some cases
