Version 9.50 is now available! 🎉
This update focuses on improving the Chest Log and fixing the Winners! panel cleanup, while keeping the working helper panel and the new custom audio features.
🆕 What's New in v9.50
🏆 Improved Winners! Panel Closing
The Winners! panel handling has been significantly improved.
The helper now:
- Detects the actual Winners! panel more reliably
- Locates the panel's Close control
- Supports different types of Close elements
- Uses multiple click methods to ensure YouNow receives the interaction
- Verifies that the Winners! panel actually disappears
- Retries closing when necessary
- Uses Escape as an additional fallback
This should prevent the automation from getting stuck after opening a chest.
📜 Chest History / Log Improvements
The persistent Chest Log has also been improved.
The log now:
- Records completed chest openings
- Keeps the newest chest entries first
- Persists between page reloads
- Updates after a successful chest cycle
- Continues tracking the actual likes reached and configured threshold
- Includes the existing RESET LOG option
The log is tied to the completed chest-opening sequence so incomplete or failed cycles aren't incorrectly recorded as successful openings.
🔊 Custom Chest Opening Sound
The custom audio feature from the previous update remains included.
You can now:
- Select your own audio file
- Store the sound for future sessions
- Enable/disable the sound
- Adjust the volume
- Test the sound
- Remove the saved sound
The sound plays immediately before the chest is opened.
🖥️ Helper Panel
The helper panel continues to use the working panel display method from the previous version.
All existing panel functionality remains available, including:
- Draggable panel
- Minimize/maximize
- Saved position
- Saved settings
- Live chest status
- Chest likes
- Threshold
- Recheck timer
- Opening delay
- Auto Chest Information
- Opening chat announcement
- Chest history
🔧 Version
YouNow Treasure Chest Auto Opener v9.50
This release focuses on making the post-opening portion of the automation more reliable while preserving the panel behavior that was working correctly in the previous version.

* Added protection against overlapping asynchronous checks.
* Prevents multiple chest operations from running at the same time.
* Helps prevent the chest panel from repeatedly opening and closing.

* Records likes that triggered the opening.
* Records the configured threshold.
* Records the opening delay.
* Newest entries appear first.
* History survives page reloads.
* **RESET LOG** clears the history without changing your automation settings.

🛠️ V9.26 — Stability & Own-Broadcast Protection
This update focuses on improving reliability and preventing the automation from running when you're simply watching another broadcaster.
🛡️ Improved Own-Broadcast Protection
The script now uses YouNow's broadcaster End control as the primary signal that you're on your own live broadcast.
The automation is designed to:
✅ Run while you're on your own broadcast
🛑 Stop when the broadcaster End control disappears
🛑 Prevent automation from starting when your broadcaster controls aren't detected
🔄 Re-check the broadcast controls while running
🔒 Help prevent timed chat messages from being posted in another broadcaster's chat
🔧 Fixed Automation Startup Issues
V9.26 also fixes an issue that could leave the helper stuck at:
WAITING_FOR_CHEST
even when a Treasure Chest was available.
The chest state machine and open-delay timer handling have been corrected so the automation can continue through its normal sequence.
⏳ Configurable Chest Open Delay
The configurable opening delay remains available.
When the target is reached:
Chest → Likes checked → Likes locked → Optional announcement → Delay → Open
The locked like count is preserved during the delay so changing likes do not affect the current chest cycle.
💬 Custom Chat Messages
You can continue editing both your chest announcement and timed chat message.
Supported variables include:
{likes} — Likes that triggered the chest
{threshold} — Configured target
{cycle} — Current chest cycle
{delay} — Configured opening delay
{delay_seconds} — Delay in seconds
{open_delay} — Alias for {delay}
{open_delay_seconds} — Alias for {delay_seconds}
{delay_remaining} — Current remaining delay
{delay_remaining_seconds} — Remaining delay in seconds
⏱️ Independent Timed Chat Posting
Timed chat posting remains independent from the chest cycle.
You can configure:
Posting interval
Custom message
Automatic recurring posts
Master automation control
🎁 Chest Automation
The existing Treasure Chest workflow remains:
Detect available chest
Open the chest panel
Check likes
Compare against your target
Lock the triggering likes
Optionally send your announcement
Wait for your configured delay
Open the chest
Make It Rain
Tell Them
Handle the Winners panel
Clean up and wait for the next chest
⚙️ Existing Features Preserved
V9.26 continues to include:
🎛️ Master automation switch
🎁 Automatic chest detection
❤️ Configurable target likes
⏱️ Recheck timer
🔒 Like locking
⏳ Open delay
💬 Custom chest announcements
📢 Timed chat posting
🏆 Winners panel handling
🧹 Automatic cleanup
🖥️ Draggable helper panel
➖ Minimize/maximize controls
💾 Saved settings
🛡️ Own-broadcast protection
📥 Update to V9.26
If you're currently using V9.25, update to V9.26 for the latest stability and broadcast-detection fixes.
Current version: 9.26
❤️ Happy broadcasting, and good luck with your Treasure Chests!
This update builds on the existing YouNow Treasure Chest Auto Opener and adds a fully user-configurable chest opening delay, new chat message variables, and version/setting cleanup while keeping the existing chest automation and timed chat features intact.
🆕 What's New
⏱️ User-Configurable Chest Open Delay
You can now choose exactly how long the Helper waits before opening a Treasure Chest after your target has been reached.
The setting is available directly in the Helper panel:
Chest Open Delay (seconds)
Examples:
The setting is saved with your other Helper settings.
- <span>0</span> seconds — Open immediately
- <span>10</span> seconds — Wait 10 seconds
- <span>30</span> seconds — Wait 30 seconds
- <span>60</span> seconds — Wait 1 minute
- <span>300</span> seconds — Wait 5 minutes
🔒 Likes Are Locked Before the Delay
When the chest reaches your configured target:
This means likes changing during the delay cannot interfere with the chest-opening decision.
- The Helper opens the Treasure Chest panel.
- It checks the current likes.
- Once the target is reached, the likes are locked for that chest cycle.
- The Helper closes the Treasure Chest panel.
- Your configured open delay begins.
- The Helper waits with the chest panel closed.
- When the countdown reaches zero, the chest panel is reopened.
- The Helper opens the chest using the already-locked likes value.
📊 Open Delay Countdown
The Helper panel now shows the remaining chest open delay.
For example:
Open Delay: 27s
The countdown continues until the delay expires, after which the Helper reopens the chest panel and continues the opening sequence.
💬 New Chat Delay Variables
The configurable chat messages can now use the chest open delay information.
Available variables include:
<span>{delay}</span>
Displays the configured delay in a readable format.
Example:
<span>30s</span>
or:
<span>1:30</span>
<span>{delay_seconds}</span>
Displays the configured delay as seconds.
Example:
<span>90</span>
<span>{open_delay}</span>
Alias for <span>{delay}</span>.
<span>{open_delay_seconds}</span>
Alias for <span>{delay_seconds}</span>.
<span>{delay_remaining}</span>
Displays the current remaining delay while the Helper is waiting.
Example:
<span>24s</span>
<span>{delay_remaining_seconds}</span>
Displays the current remaining delay as seconds.
Example:
<span>24</span>
💬 Example Chat Message
You can now create messages such as:
<span>Chest reached {likes} likes! Waiting {delay} before opening! 🎁</span>
Or:
<span>The chest reached {likes} likes! Opening in {delay_remaining}! ❤️</span>
You can also combine the new variables with the existing variables:
<span>Chest reached {likes}/{threshold} likes! Cycle #{cycle} — opening in {delay_remaining}! 🎁</span>
📋 Available Chat Variables
The existing variables are still supported:
New in V9.22:
- <span>{likes}</span> — Locked/current likes
- <span>{threshold}</span> — Your configured target
- <span>{cycle}</span> — Current chest cycle
These variables are available in both the regular chest chat message and the independent timed chat message.
- <span>{delay}</span>
- <span>{delay_seconds}</span>
- <span>{open_delay}</span>
- <span>{open_delay_seconds}</span>
- <span>{delay_remaining}</span>
- <span>{delay_remaining_seconds}</span>
💬 Independent Timed Chat Posting
The timed chat system introduced in V9.21 remains included in V9.22.
You can configure:
The timed chat system operates independently from the Treasure Chest automation.
- Custom posting interval
- Custom timed chat message
- Enable/disable timed posting independently
- <span>{likes}</span> variable
- <span>{threshold}</span> variable
- <span>{cycle}</span> variable
- Chest delay variables
For example:
<span>Thanks for watching! We're currently at {likes} likes! ❤️</span>
Or:
<span>Thanks for watching! 🎁 Next chest opening delay: {delay}!</span>
🛠️ Version Number & Settings Improvements
V9.22 also corrects the script's displayed version information.
The userscript metadata, Helper footer, and console version message now correctly identify the release as:
V9.22
Existing settings from previous versions are also preserved through the built-in settings migration, so upgrading does not require starting your configuration from scratch.
🔧 Existing Features Still Included
V9.22 keeps the existing Helper functionality, including:
- 🎁 Automatic Treasure Chest detection
- ❤️ Configurable likes threshold
- 🔄 Automatic rechecking
- ⏱️ Chest recheck timer

📌 Upgrading to V9.22

Recheck: <span>30</span> seconds
The Helper will:
Detect Chest → Open Panel → Check Likes → Lock Likes → Close Panel → Wait 30 Seconds → Reopen Panel → Open Chest
During the delay, the locked likes value remains unchanged.
