Does User Rules work with "Auto Mode By External PAC"?

[mihail-jdanov]

I added a rule and it's working in "Auto Mode By PAC" mode (but only after turning client Off and back On) but not working in "Auto Mode By External PAC" mode. Is it OK and User Rules should work only in "Auto Mode By PAC"?

v1.10.2

Generally, "Auto Mode By PAC" utilizes a PAC file generated from GFW list, which typically is located at ~/.ShadowsocksX-NG/gfwlist.js.

Here's a snippet of the default rules:

var rules = [
  "|http:\/\/85.17.73.31\/",
  "||afreecatv.com",
  ...
]

The custom rules you added via "Edit User Rules For PAC..." is added to the top of the list:

var rules = [
  "||2ip.io",
  "|http:\/\/85.17.73.31\/",
  "||afreecatv.com",
  ...
]

@mihail-jdanov However, when you switch to "Auto Mode By External PAC", you're using a different PAC file all-together, so it's only natural that your rules don't work, because they're not even present in the external PAC file.
