hold on, reading the docs, I'm not totally sure if we need to jump to a desktop program or any proxy. Since we're only modifying the game.min.js, and not dynamically editing requests, I don't see why we're not just able to migrate to mv3 normally with chrome.declarativeNetRequest

if ya wanna be nitty gritty about it, technically we don't actually modify the game files with the networkRequest API, it just runs another script that inserts the modified game files. The thing that's actually going to stop us from doing anything is how they're going to handle remote code

MV3 imposes new restrictions that limit an extension's ability to execute unreviewed JavaScript through a combination of platform changes and policy limitations.
Many extensions are unaffected by this change. However, if your MV2 extension executes remotely hosted scripts, injects code strings into pages, or evals strings at runtime, you'll need to update your code execution strategies when migrating to MV3.

If they just flat out reject our extension, we may just have to go back to manually loading the extension with the developer tools

I haven't read too much into the documentation, but we could try, but I'm not sure it'll actually work.

is there possibly a way to get code "approved" by google? if so, we can try that.

nope lmao

it might be possible to just completely move PNP into PHEx, since it seems like we can replace script.js directly, kinda. https://stackoverflow.com/a/35372809

I'm almost certain the "no remote code" requirement by google isn't enforced by mv3, but just by the chrome store. Unless they have some wild crazy new stuff...?

Not sure, we just gotta look at Mv3 and see what happens.

could we possibly trick MV3 into thinking it's loading something else but when it gets to the extension, it saves the file in cache, and then executes it?

Because we want people to easily get the hacks to make a point to prodigy, and sideloading the extension or using a desktop app isn't really accessible

Very aware that these alternative methods can and will be confusing for users. This is unfortunate.

I don't think this is possible to directly put P-NP into PHEx.
It would definitely keep hacks from being down more often, but the extension will still need to fetch from Prodigy's gamemin to modify it, and if you're fetching the regular gamemin, you might as well just fetch the modified one, it doesn't make a difference.

wait nvm I just read the stackoverflow

yeah it's possible

Little update on this, Arcerion tried getting it to work for 3 hours and apparently couldn't figure it out, but he's going to try to get someone else to do it.
