Where is the asterisk for a pogo stick on candy box 2

Dude I've been searching for hours. I've went through the savegame code file and nothing. I've searched that for "house" for "key" and for "false" and checked every single one and nothing was a match to it.

My only conclusion SO FAR is that there is no way to open this door.

I'm gonna run through the source code now to see if there is anything about that or the hidden commands that the computer tells us about and I'll edit this later.

EDIT

Found in the code:

Village.prototype.goToFirstHouse = function () {
    alert("yay");
};

While the other houses call for a function named setPlace

this.getGame().setPlace(new SecondHouse(this.getGame()));

The first house only does an alert. Which means there is nothing there and even if we managed to 'enter' the first house we'd only get an alert saying "yay", nothing else. So there is nothing in the first house 8D

This sounds like an issue with a proxy, because candybox 2 does not use SSL at all (try searching for https in the source-code).

If your friend does not use a proxy, there's a small chance it could be due to browser plugins / anti-virus program / a virus / a national firewall / any number of other things. Have your friend post his issue to superuser.com (with many more details than you gave us here), since this is not a good place for troubleshooting connectivity issues.
