Mochibot tracking?
One of my sponsors is requesting mochibot tracking. This appears to be different than the analytics, and I didn't see it in the advanced mochi ads extension. Is there an extension to handle this?
If not, can someone make one?
Here's the info:
Required MochiBot.as class file: http://www.mochibot.com/as3/MochiBot.zip
Add the MochiBot code into your FLA with the following steps:
1. Create a new layer and give it a layer name of "MochiBot". Make sure that this new layer is in your main scene and not the preloader.
2. Select the first frame of the new MochiBot layer and paste the MochiBot code into the Actions editor
// MochiBot.com -- Version 8
// Tested with Flash 9-10, ActionScript 3
MochiBot.track(this, "Your Tracking ID");
I can't spare much at the moment, but I can paypal $5 to someone to make an extension for this if necessary

I have also been requested by a sponsor earlier to use this old tracking tool. I was, however, able to convince him that MochiAnalytics is better, and this is also Mochi's stand on this because all their analytics related development goes nowadays towards the Analytics module instead of the old Mochibot. You can now also share Analytics reports with sponsors easily, so you can have the game configured in your Mochi Dashboard and just share the report url.
Of course it would be good to have a Mochibot extension as well, but if you don't find anyone to implement it, maybe you can try to 'advertise' MochiAnalytics for the sponsor a little more as an alternative?
Currently, though, the Analytics module is still suffering from the database issues Mochi has had since end of Dec last year. So most of recent analytics data is still unavailable (which is quite ridiculous, to be honest). Not sure if this is the case also for Mochibot, probably yes.
