Evidence that the delete on close checkbox in Firefox does something other than what I'd expect.

  • open a window to snowman souls game
  • open a second window to preferences
  • set delete on close to CHECKED
  • refresh snowman window. Game will be at beginning
  • set delete on close to NOT checked
  • refresh snowman window. Game goes to position saved from previous session.

I can go back and forth and the refresh state of the game toggles with the delete on close checkbox, even though I never close the browser.

Dunno what this means, but it seems a halfway usable workaround for the game. Possibly I can uncheck the box to play, then check again afterwards.

I do have tcpdump and wireshark but dunno if I have the ambition required to track this.
