Hi,
There is a problem with jump command on level 10 and 11 in codelab (https://santatracker.google.com/codelab.html)
Santa jumps up and returns to start position.
Tried in Firefox 83 and Chrome 87.0.4280.88 64-bit.
I'm not the only person having this issue.

Thanks! We'll look at this on Monday.

Any updates? Jump in both levels isn’t working on latest public Chrome on macOS. Santa just jumps in place or back to the starting position

So you can skip to the specific level to try out the issue by appending "?level=11" to the HTML, like this: https://santatracker.google.com/codelab.html?level=11

I actually can't reproduce this issue on my machine (macOS, Chrome 87.0.4280.88)—it works fine. I believe it doesn't work though, I've seen folks upload images or gifs.

If there's any more information or anything interesting in the console I'd appreciate that.

Thanks for the workaround.
Here I can reproduce it on any Windows 10 machine in the current Firefox or Edge. No ad-blockers or anything activated. Very curious!

Merry Christmas!!

There is a possibility that the bug is caused by the language.

If I load the page using the english version then jumping works. Checking the console, there is a call to api.moveJump('block_id_7', 1, 'north');.

On the other hand, when using the page on a different language, instead of 'north', the direction string passed is translated to the new language and the jumping mechanic fails in all of them, ie:

  • Opening in dutch the call is api.moveJump('block_id_7', 1, 'noorden');
  • Opening in german the call is api.moveJump('block_id_7', 1, 'Norden');
  • Opening in italian the call is api.moveJump('block_id_7', 1, 'nord');

I have reproduced this bug/behaviour using Windows 10 with Google Chrome Version 87.0.4280.88 and with Ubuntu 20.04 with Google Chrome Version 87.0.4280.88 as well

That's it! If changed to English, it also works just fine. Good thinking!

Thank you for finding the problem! I'll try to fix this in the next couple of days, we are understandably taking a break from work for a bit.
