a problem: Some of my forum members bought an itemshop, but their items dont have any use because of the buff. (its 0)

how will I sort it out?


thanks

Like kaotic said, personal itemshop items can't have a buff value because I couldn't figure out an easy way to moderate the items.

I want to use the Store Hack von Lesanne
Must i do anything with the RPG Hack?

[Moreliator]

Bitsy, where is the code located that makes the person challenged go first? My members really want me to base it on speed so that its more fair...or at least randomize it.
Thanks.

If you want to use Store Points in the RPG Itemshop, then you will have to go to the Itemshop Options menu and change the first option. Other than that, the two should work just fine.

In battlefight.php, find:
If($confirmation == "Yes") {
$curtime = time();
$DB_site->query("UPDATE battle SET battlestate='1',lastactive='$curtime' WHERE battlenumber='$battlenumber'");
$action = "enterbattle";
}

Somewhere in there you will need to change the 'turnid' for the battle to the ID of the person with the highest speed, or whatever you want. To do this, you could do something like:

If($confirmation == "Yes") {
$curtime = time();
$DB_site->query("UPDATE battle SET battlestate='1',lastactive='$curtime',turnid='$bat tle[ownerid]' WHERE battlenumber='$battlenumber'");
$action = "enterbattle";
}

The above example will make it the owner's turn first, instead of the opponent.

[kaotic]

Where is the text used in battles located? I need to adjust the spells text (Spreading his arms in a fit of rage...) since I have mercenaries set as spells. For example, here is the battle text when one attacks with a mercenary:

"Spreading his arms in a fit of rage, someone casts Archer on someone and deals X points of damage. Archer cost 0 MA to cast."

See what I'm saying? :p

All of those lines should be spread throughout battleupdate.php

I just have to show off my site... www.zalastri.com The defualt template might show if your not logged in though :( Its really maxed out. It has the RPG hack as pretty much the second main feature in the boards. Its a RP Community and this helped tremendousley :D!!!1!1!Eleventy11!!

[PixelFx]

I've been working on custom 3d art for the battle system, should be interesting when done, I don't have them installed in my sites battle system yet, as I'm still bug testing but I've got so far 250 items/weapons/armor/spells/jewels/potions etc etc :)hope people will check it out later :)

[Spark]

uhm thx but i mean, give it any problems with the Store hack and the RPG Hack? Bugs?

DAAAAAAMMMMMNNNN that was a really, really, really long hack!!! but it was well worth it!!! Amazing, installed first time no problems and I didnt have trouble finding anything at all. thanks :)

[Xelation]

question, how are people making items like Magic Tag that Cures Zombie status? Because what does zombie status do, is there even zombie status in this hack? Becuase I want to create a spell that causes poison and will take away 3% of a persons health away each turn until its cured but I have no clue how I can do this.

Bitsy is it possible for me to lock Race and Element once the user picks? People tend to go with the strongest instead of using this as an rpg extenstion of their persona and some of my members wish for me to lock this feature. They suggested in order to change it you'd have to pay money or reach a certain level.

That would be really cool if that could be done.

I agree, I would really like that to :)

[Mijae]

Bytsis, I found yet another money abuse bug. When you enter wager, you can enter a negative number (lets say -50,000). And when the battle is over it will clear both fighter's money to 0.

[Zalastri]

Is there any way that I can prevent a user from gaining EXP from posting in a certain forum?

[kaotic]

(IMO) Disabling the post count might work.

Btw, do you guys know any good sites that I could gather sprites from?

[Zalastri]

I dont think it has anything to do with post count.

[Zalastri]

in a SPECIFIC forum I want people not to get EXP when posting. Not to disable in all forums

[PixelFx]

Hey Bitsys,

I got some of the custom art I showed you earlier up on the site, and got more of a overall layout starting to come togher as well...

I am Still working on layout, rpg names for items etc, need to change gil to another currency but so far its all good, thanks for your hard work..

http://www.orbsydia.com

Above is what you would see if you had a membership account on my forum, to save people time of registering I put a screenshot together... I need to get a few beta testers as well, to help find bugs etc... so we can send to bitsys :P

http://www.orbsydia.com

I haven't made custom 3d battle scenes YET, but they are on the to list :)

:) Possible bug: some items not showing up in normal store, but do show up in the generic section ... not sure how to change that. The catigories are not set to personal....

One thing some of my members pointed out is that at the end of a battle when the one users accepts that he won the battle sometimes the other person is slow to accept that they lost or just doesn't for some unknown reason.

I forget if you're given the money regardless if the loser accepts defeat or not, but it's just something I thought I'd bring to your attention. My user suggested instead of each user accepting the outcome to just have it automatically do it.


The money should be given as soon as the battle result can be determined, i.e. before both players accept the results. Let me know if this is not the case.

There are no status modifiers at this time.

At the moment there are no status effects.

I have looked into doing this before and I found that it would cause more problems than solutions code-wise. Maybe someone could make an add-on.

You can disable negative wagers. Search this thread, as it has been discussed quite a bit.

That would require a custom hack, since your forum IDs are different from everyone else's.

Images look awesome :)

To fix the items not showing up problem, go in to your database with phpmyadmin. Find the rpg_type table. Change the ID of Generic from 1 to 0. That should fix it.

[PixelFx]

Gotta love phpmyadmin, Yup that did it :) I'm still new to editing mysql but I'm guessing for anyone else that had this problem you could run the query below.



UPDATE `rpg_type` SET `id` = '0' WHERE `id` = '1' LIMIT 1 ;

[Mijae]

Bytsis, you should implement the Clan Hack into your RPG battle hack, it would be a nice addition :P

[legendarysk8er]

Yes it would, my forum has clans, excpet they arent like a hack. A lot of times we have clan wars and what would be cool if like two weak people could fight a strong person a thte same time. Like somehow admins could arrange hadnicap matches or something. Just a thought...

[PixelFx]

Currently working on a chat system intergation system for the battle system... so far it's working good :P just a few more templates to edit and update :)

the system is linked to an irc server using custum hacked variation of the jirc intergrated hack. I've got it setup so that I can use the origional hack, as well as a second one, which I've linked for just battles... I'm working on setting up my own ircd for it as well.

Oh, sounds great. Is it possible to use it without a game server, just a seperate chat? :smoke:

[Moreliator]

Bitsy,
It woudl be REALLY great if you could allow the admin to provide certain members with unique rpg characters. If you can't, could you at least say how I could go about doing it?

Do you mean allow certain members the ability to use special classes or races?

What exactly do you mean by unique?

[Hostc]

I've installed this on my forums and when adding the code into the postbit area it really makes the postbit longer and it looks wierd.

:lick:

[kaotic]

Well maybe you should edit it so it doesn't include all of the information, making it smaller. :p

Alright, sorry for not clarifying better. You know how in the ADMIN panel, the admin can ad classes and then select whether he wants only Admin and Mods to use that class? Well it would be reallly helpful if we could do that for specific members. So lets say "bob" wants a certain class that no one else can get, I would go and do it via the CPANEL.

Thanks.

In the postbit template, you could put something like:

<a href="rpgcp.php?userid=$post[userid]">RPG info</a>

That code will take them to the RPGCP of the poster.

[Moreliator]

Bitsy, when users edit their character and stuff in their User CP ----> Edit Options sometimes things do not change in real time. For example, earlier today I was testing it out and when I switched my class the Type would also switch right then and there to match the Class. Tonight, however, I have to select a new class, then hit update, then go back to Edit Info to see the new type... I'm not sure why this is. How can I get it to go back to how it was before?

[Darkwaltz4]

okay! REALLY long time no see :-p after breaking the battle arena like 6 months ago, i finally downloaded the newest version, disregarded all installation directions, and installed the hack over ^_^ so, in 2 days time, i redid the hack (my custom version anyway) lol, including the fabled summons, pp everything, and like a million little tweaks here and there to patch up little bugs which im not sure have been mentioned before or nt (i REFUSE to read through 130 pages of this thread >.<) anyway, as for the summons, theres still some TINY bugs in it (it doesnt appear for some users for some reason (like me???)) lmao, but does for 99.99% of the users of my enormous forums... my itemshop is still got 350 items, aaaaand i came up with a new version of the donation queue, if anyone been using it (i doubt it -_-) although summons might be more liked :-p anyways, IF you decided to be different and installed the donation queue, to upgrade just replace the code from the install instructions in moderate.php and itemshop.php (and yes it has been updated for the most current vrsion) oh and drop toname and origname from the table, theyre bad now ;) lol. new features include spiffy new interface, and now ip is displaying in a handy way (no long-around looking up of ips)

like i said ive fixed a million little bugs -_- but if i come accross asked questions ive fixed in this thread, ill post them (and ill keep ya posted on summons...maybe) lol

I just went to check out your forums. I like what you've done with the RPG, very nice. I hope to hear (see?) more from you about the "summons" in the future. :)

I have an issue where the USER CP area lists the special fields of "race", class, etc 2 times. Once in the required area and again at the bottom. It only updates if you change the one on the bottom. Very confusing. I looked all over in the code and the data and couldn't figure it out. I could get them both to go away but not just one. Anyone have this problem? Suggestions to fix it? It's a new installation on 2.3.0. I'm testing it here:

Yeah, it's not there. I assume that the RACE and CLASS and all that are getting into BOTH of these variables:

$customfields_required

$customfields

Where I think it should only be in the later of the two. So it shows up twice but only the last one in the form is effective. So somehow the members.php file is messed up. Yet I didn't do any manual editing.

This is what's loaded into the first variable:

$profilefields=$DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM profilefield WHERE editable = 1 ORDER BY displayorder");

Here is what I think is loaded into the later:

$profilefields=$DB_site->query("SELECT profilefieldid,required,title FROM profilefield WHERE hidden=0 ORDER BY displayorder");

Ideas?

Ack, never mind. It was in there twice. How it got there I'm not sure as it was a new install. I've removed it. Thanks!

[Darkwaltz4]

*cracks knuckles* okays, i guess i might read through pages 80-120 cause thats how long its been since i was here :-p and im going to try to list some of the bizzarre things ive put this hack through, and if i put an asterisk (*) by it, please dont ask me how to do it yet, its probably too complicated to explain here, or its still volatile, lol....also, ill probably forget like alot, mainly because a bunch i did before i broke the hack on my boards, like 3 months ago...

Summon-type items *
Summon Battle sequences *
PP Potions
PP Healing Center bit
Donation Queue
Registration points
Bank interest thing moved to global.php
Redid rpg stats to ~1000 x level=hp ~100 x level=ma/pp (really simple)
Added a mess of custom messages based on rpg type
Links to 'correct' itemshop based on type
Itemshop FAQ, link to it from itemshop
Target link to profile rpg section, so that i could link people to member.php?action=editprofile#rpg when they keep asking me where all the rpg stuff was >.< and 'edit ur profile' wasnt helping them...
Fixing blank password bug...
Changing all password fields to type='password' (looks nicer ;))
Random playing of battle midis on battlefight.php
Rewrote some of the stupid battle messages :-p like whos gunna meditate in a cave??? lmao (no offense ;))
Removed/replaced a bunch of links, like the 'update stats' checkbox with a link to the healing center...

there prolly more :-p and i guess im here to help *sigh* those strange problems everyone keeps having with the hack :-p

[TheRaven57]

Is there a way to make it so that people who own personal shops cannot create their own items? I would like it if they could just sell the items pre-made by the administration.

[kaotic]

@ Darkwaltz4: Could you explain how I can install..... everything that doesn't have an asterisk by it? :D

[Mijae]

Yes, you should release an addon :P

[Darkwaltz4]

TheRaven57: i just removed the link to buy personal itemshops :-D (oops, forgot to mention that >.<)

kaotic: pick one at a time and i might *stares at the ceiling*

v0id: id have to be really bored :-D

[kaotic]

Actually... how about this one:

Random playing of battle midis on battlefight.php
Right now I'm using a simple script with a list of songs to choose from, but I can't find a way to play midis randomly! :(

[Moreliator]

Bitsy,
I am quite stumped over the whole Turn ID thing. Is it possible you could show me how I would make who goes first randomized?

Also, my members keep bugging me to ask if you can change the healing center to take from money in the pocket, not the bank.

[Darkwaltz4]

random midis are easy enough, first find ur midis' paths...

then at the bottom of battlefight.php, find

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate('battle_arena')."\");");

and then decide how many midis that you want.... and replace ### with it in this bunch of code: (place this ABOVE that ^^)

$randnum = rand(1, ##);
if($randnum == 1) {
$chosenmidi = "http://path.to.midi/midi.mid";
} elseif($randnum == 2) {
$chosenmidi = "http://path.to.midi/midi2.mid";
} elseif($randnum == 3) {
$chosenmidi = "http://path.to.midi/midi3.mid";

...

} elseif($randnum == ##) {
$chosenmidi = "http://path.to.midi/midi#.mid";
}

get the point? then in template battle_arena, find

<title>$bbtitle - Battle</title>
$headinclude
</head>

and replace with:

<title>$bbtitle - Battle</title>
<bgsound src="$chosenmidi" loop="-1">
$headinclude
</head>

yay. for a small fee ill do it for you *big grin*

[kaotic]

Thanks. :D I shall install this little addon right now.

[Moreliator]

Bitsy, I looked more into my probel and I h ave discovered that there is a JAvascript error on the User CP ---> Edit Profile page. It says expected "}" ....

[PixelFx]

you guys the midi idea is hella cool :P

Darkwaltz4, someone needs to make a PvM system :P or player vs monster :P I could draw some custom monsters or put together art for that if wanted.

I'm working on an art addon, that adds 250 custom 3d/2d images, of armor, weapons, potions, magic items, and spells for the battle system currently.

Hey Bitsy, works great now! Thanks!

[Mijae]

That midi addon looks pretty good! Anyone got a list of midis I can download that go pretty good with the battle arena theme?

[kaotic]

I suggest getting on Kazaa and downloading Final Fantasy battle theme music.

[TheVoidz]

I tried this hack long ago back when it first came out and I remeber exp(strength) being calculated on the ammout of posts the person had, same with money. This caused people to spam the ++++ out of my boards to be the best and it pretty much destroyed the server, will this happen again? Or is there a new way of dealing with money and exp?

[DarkDraco07]

about this midi idea, wouldnt the song restart everytime the page refreshes?

[Mijae]

Yes it would, but midis are usually under 50kb, so even a modem user wouldnt suffer that much.

[SM Tengu]

If you add frames in the battle arena, you could make it so that the tune doesn't restart.

Although personally I think music on sites are one of the worst things you can have ;) I always listen to my own music when surfing, and when a midi start I close that window down faster than ever ;P


Waltz, could you explain what the PP things do for you, the potion and healing center I mean. And if possible, tell us how it could be implented.

[vdinh]

Hi Bitsys,
I am still currently at version 0.61. Would you please let me know the right way to get to version 0.67 ? Thanks :).

[Darkwaltz4]

midis -> to STOP a midi while playing, just click the stop button on your browser when the page is finished loading.

to have it NOT loop, change the html code from loop="-1" to like 3 or 2 or 1, see?

and yes midis are small...

as for a monster arena....maybe ;) i could *probably* od something which feeds monster data through the battlefight.php hing, and i dont think ill need pics, lmao, just some game sprites ^_^ lol....

pp? well, i had to add some stuff into the healing center which wasnt queried for automatically, and basically copy the magic part and slap it onto the bottom for pp, lol, and rename everything :-p and add something to the template, but pp potions O.o i had to rewrite a couple database things like the stuff in the 'extra' col (bitsys would know what im talking about) and...well, i had to update it _everywhere_ and i had trouble tracking the stupid thing o.o as for summon damage, well lets just say summons do full damage when you just run out of pp ^_^ lol

oh, and if you just want one midi to play, screw the code in battlefight.php, and place the direct url where '$chosenmidi' is in the html

[RPGHost]

What about the hack to make the user jump to the ITEM SHOP of his class? I'd like to see/hear how that's done. I'm new to hacking this but a good programmer. Already leanred a lot ... a push in the right direction is all I need.

you can turn this item off under the Battle Options in the Admin CP. If you turn it off, the only way to gain exp then would be through winning battles and through battle turns.

For money, try waltz addon that gievs a set amount of gil, then turn off the "gil per post" in options of the admin cp.

Couldn't hurt to try, right? :D Here are a couple of pages with a great deal of sprites:

http://rpgicons.com/ff6enemies.html
http://rpgicons.com/ff6bosses.html

Something else you might consider (as long as you're doing so well :p) is a new column in the memberlist which displays the member's current level. This will make it easier for members to find opponents of similiar statistics.

[Moreliator]

Alright Bitsy, I'm really close to finishing this thing out. I have ALL my items input now, but when I tested it out as admin, some of the items were appearing in the Type they were not assigned to.

Anyway, should I run the DB fix? I have 16 item categories. It turns out that for every category there seems to be another ID listed in it that shouldn't be. Theres about 8 items per category, so it ends up being about 16 items showing in one category when only 8 should show.

The only other thing I can think of that may have caused the problem is that I originally had the default category named "Normal" ... if I'm correct, any RPG Type can buy moves from this default category which I called "Normal". When I realized this, I renamed it to "All" and made a new Item Category called Normal. I'm wondering if maybe this COULD have caused a glitch? I did rename the Normal category before creating a new one though, so I really don't think that is the problem, but I thought I'd list it anyway just in case.


So should I run the DB fix? Maybe I could do some stuff in PHP My Admin to see if its really deselecting?

Thanks.

***EDIT*** Alright, further investigation shows that it is a similar problem to what happened before, with the whole "mimicing" thing. Although this time it doesn't show in the check boxes, in PHP My Admin, I checked IDs and the Item Categories seem to be getting confused. For example, the items specifically for Category/RPG Type ID 4 could be found in 14 along with the ones in 14, and vice versa. It appears this way for all items. This is almost the exact problem I had before back in the v .61 days...only way back then the checkboxes would show the error too. Oh, and is my Default ID supposed to be 1 or 0?

Another example: My default RPG type is currently ID 0. In the Itemshop, all my ID 10 type items are being treated as if they were default. I'm sure if I moved the default ID to 1, all the items for Type ID 11 would appear as default ites for any types use. I'm almost 100% sure now that the ID miz up is the problem now. Hopefully there is an easy fix as this is the last thing before i can launch the rpg for general use =/

BTW Bitsy, just another quick question. Do the "+ to def" and "+ to attack" options work? I tried them out and the opponents move never hit when I had a "+ to def" item equipped... the move either reflected and said it damaged the oppoenent, which it didn't, or the wordlet said "Opponent dealt points of damage" without a number, dealing me no harm. I'm searching the thread but I can't seem to find if you had said these two categories don't work. If not, does the armor category work? Thanks.

I just tested a battle and it seemed to go through great... My question/problem is - how do I get the battle output to post into a forum. I saw on someone elses site there was a forum that had battle results that anyone could visit/view. But now that my battle is done it doesn't show up anywhere except when you go to the battle area and view the specific battle.

Is there some setting I'm missing? A hack that was done?

Yes, under battle options there is an option to select "yes" and pick which forum you want it posted in.

In itemshop.php, find:
$pos = strpos($row[type], $itemtype);
if($pos === false)
and REPLACE it with

Let me know if that fixes the problem. This is definately a bug.

Hmm I'm having the same problem too, my members are complaining their hp is going down. I'm not sure why, I never notice these things. It frustrates me because I think my forum members take this battle too seriously instead of just having fun with it :(

EDIT: Also on my forum battle arena I have a midi playing and yes it does reload everytime the page reloads. You can remedy this by creating a link to a popup window where the user can choose a battle midi should they want one. (My members requested this)

[PixelFx]

I was thinking for the battle scene having it setup a pop up window, and or linking it to flash file, or converting the mini to mp3, then putting it in a flash file that you can turn on and off :P this would make some really small files, and also stream the sound to those in dialup even faster..

also if you refresh the page it won't stop the music :P

for those of you that play ultima online, we have about 500 midi songs on the game disc, including battle music ;)

I'm working on two addons, 1) a graphics addon for weapons, armor, spells, and potions etc. and some 3d / fantasy battle scenes..

2) a intergrated chat system, which for the most part I have working, just reworking the code for how the plugin installs. Links to irc server as well.

I'd love to see an addon for PvM, the art for the sprites above for FF looks good. I was going to toy with making custom art but it's all good if we can have permission to use the art with the battle system.

to bitsys and others, great job with working out bugs and making the system, looks awesome so far. :)

[kaotic]

Indeed... a working PvM add-on would really complete this hack. Also, do you plan to release new battle scenes if you can come up with any? :)

[Mijae]

Yes, a PvM will make users happy, and me too ;)

[Darkwaltz4]

sorry for the short post, but i just wanted to say that i am currently working on a monster arena, although i dunno how free ill make it >.< its quite complicated, ill reveal features later, i have to get offline, lol

also, i was going to show you my custom stats equations :-p which work very nicely and better than the weird version of the standard one O.o but ill save it for tomarrow~

[PixelFx]

kaotic -- do you plan to release new battle scenes if you can come up with any?


I plan to release some new battle scenes, prob not all but we'll see how it goes. I'm setting up some themed battle scenes as well. I'll post some of my meshes later for those interested in seening work in progress...

bitsys should i start a addon thread or post here?

Update:

What would it take to add a Timer to the battles, aka making it so players can only do so many battles a day, with the play member, and other other members, aka two toggles.

say, member A and B, can only fight each other 5 times a day, where as member A can find other members C D E F etc up to 25 different members in one day or what ever you choose?

This would stop members from trying to spam rpg points by dualing them selves or others massively to get gils/other points ?

[Moreliator]

Bitsy, some of my members suggested you have a new battle activate the "New PM" Popup window... the users report that they get the PM that they have been challenged, but they don't get a popup for the new battle PMs like they would any other pm. I don't know how hard this would be, but it would be a decent addon.

Also, some of my links in the itemshop do not work. The links are like this: "http://itemshop.php?action=whatever" instead of putting my domain in front. I checked the template, and it used PHPSELF bust I guess it wasn't working. Any quick fix?

Also, can you explain the section of the code that determines if a move hits or not, it seems very confusing, and right now the moves are missing too much.

ALSO, people with a ' in there user name can't be challenged by someone else, rather, they have to challenge in order for it to work. The ' doesn't mess up teh script anymore, but it does still prevent the users from being challengable.

THANK YOU SO MUCH BITSY!!! That solved the problem right away!

Now, just another quick question :). Do the "+ to def" and "+ to attack" options work? I tried them out and the opponents move never hit when I had a "+ to def" item equipped... the move either reflected and said it damaged the oppoenent, which it didn't, or the wordlet said "Opponent dealt points of damage" without a number, dealing me no harm. I'm searching the thread but I can't seem to find if you had said these two categories don't work. If not, does the armor category work? Thanks.

They should be working. If the + to Def item added defense that was greater than the opponents attack, then the opponent won't be able to do any damage. That may be what happened. How much have you tested this?

The armor category should work like regular defense.

Can you verify that they are actually losing HP. Sometimes your maxhp goes up and it makes it look liek you are losing HP, when actually all that is happening is your HP is staying the same and your machp is going up. I am pretty sure this is related to the update stats code.

Update:

What would it take to add a Timer to the battles, aka making it so players can only do so many battles a day, with the play member, and other other members, aka two toggles.

say, member A and B, can only fight each other 5 times a day, where as member A can find other members C D E F etc up to 25 different members in one day or what ever you choose?

This would stop members from trying to spam rpg points by dualing them selves or others massively to get gils/other points ?

That kind of system would involve an infinately large mask system. You would have to keep track of who fought who for 24 hours in a temporary table and check that every time a battle is made. Sounds a little messy.

What if users could only fight a certain number of battles per day?

Bitsy, some of my members suggested you have a new battle activate the "New PM" Popup window... the users report that they get the PM that they have been challenged, but they don't get a popup for the new battle PMs like they would any other pm. I don't know how hard this would be, but it would be a decent addon.

Thanks to Darkwaltz, this will be fixed in the next version.

For now, you can replace $PHP_SELF with itemshop.php throughout the whole file. I remember having a problem similar to this a long time ago, but I have not seen it since. I also can't remember if there is a php setting to fix this or not. Hmm, I will look in to it.

Also, can you explain the section of the code that determines if a move hits or not, it seems very confusing, and right now the moves are missing too much.

Your chance to hit should never be below 40%, and never be above 90%. The equation for calculating your chance to hit is
0.6 + log10($uspeed / $oevade);
This means that you start with a 60% chance to hit, and this value goes up or down based on your speed relative to your opponents evade.

I think I might have just found a bug with anger.

If you think there is something wrong, first try turning on the battle debug messages. To do this, open battleupdate.php. At the top, you should see:
$battledebug = 0;
Change it to:
$battledebug = 1;

I don't have the auto update mod installed.

I wonder is there any punishment for loosing a battle? One person on my board seems to think when he lost a battle his hp went down a bit.

Are you sure their maxhp is just going up, with their HP staying the same? This makes it look like their HP went down, when it actually stayed the same. Also, if their posts per day drops, then their HP will drop as well.

Thanks, added it to first post.

[Moreliator]

My first addon! I hope you like it, as this is my first addon I've ever done to a hack :)! It randomizes who goes first upon the initial start of the battle. The following code gives the challenger a 33% chance to start the battle and the challenged person a 66% chance. Works quite well. I also included instructions on how to display "Determining..." on the battle.php browse page, that way people won't decline a challenge if they see they aren't going first. Here it goes...

**********************************
// Randomized First Turn Addon
// Edits: battlefight.php and battle.php
// By Moreliator
**********************************

in battlefight.php find
If($confirmation == "Yes") {
$curtime = time();
$DB_site->query("UPDATE battle SET battlestate='1',lastactive='$curtime' WHERE battlenumber='$battlenumber'");
$action = "enterbattle";

and REPLACE with
If($confirmation == "Yes") {
$curtime = time();
$rn = rand(1,3);
if ($rn == 1) {
// ###### QUERY FOR CHALLENGER TO GO FIRST ######
$DB_site->query("UPDATE battle SET battlestate='1',lastactive='$curtime',turnid='$bat tle[ownerid]' WHERE battlenumber='$battlenumber'");
$action = "enterbattle";
} else {
// ###### QUERY FOR CHELLENGED USER TO GO FIRST #######
$DB_site->query("UPDATE battle SET battlestate='1',lastactive='$curtime' WHERE battlenumber='$battlenumber'");
$action = "enterbattle";
}

You can change "$rn" to equal something else if you want. For example, if you wanted it to be totally random (50% chance either user could go first) you would change
$rn=rand(1,3); to $rn=rand(1,2);

now, in battle.php find
if($row[ownerid] == $row[turnid]) {
$turn = $row[owner];
} else {
$turn = $row[opponent];
}
and REPLACE with
if ($row[battlestate] == 0) {
$turn = "Determining...";
} elseif ($row[ownerid] == $row[turnid]) {
$turn = $row[owner];
} else {
$turn = $row[opponent];
}

Enjoy! I know my members got tired of the challenged user always going first, and this little addon really spiced things up!

[Moreliator]

Alright bitsy, the donation thing has been fixed.

My other problem is with user records. We have so many people on the boards since the RPG opened up that our database goes down for about 5 minutes at various times during the day. Now if the timing is just right, and a user is finishing the battle just as the databse is going down, their record can get messed up. For example, one guy had listed games played: 1 but then 8 wins.... it appears to happen only when the databse has been down, but I dunno if it can be fixed. Also, when I have to prune battles, the user's record does not update, because as soon as a user enters a battle, it adds one to their "battles fought" category. If I have to prune it before it is finished, the "battles fought" stays the same, making their records off.

Does anybody know how the anger system works?Whenever they get angry on my site, they pull off way too much damage. Is there any way that I could lower the attack increase some?

[Moreliator]

Well, a guy from my boards named Kirby King and I worked out a new addon. This addon allows you to lock all users' RPG options in their USER CP when they reach a certain level. The following code locks the stats at level 5, but you can change this number to whatever you want. I would recommend giving the users at least a couple levels' time where they can test different characters. This addon stops a lot of the cheap strategies some users have, such as a user switching his element to be strong against the opponent just before he challenges.

************************************************** ******
// Lock RPG Options at a Specified Level
// Edits: member.php and an optional "modifyprofile" template edit
// By Moreliator
************************************************** ******

in member.php find
$user = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT rpgclass, rpggender, rpgrace, alignment, element, inbattle FROM user WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
$classarrays = "var gd0 = new Array('Unknown','0');\n";

if (!ismoderator()) {
$specclasses = "WHERE visible=1";
}
and REPLACE with $user = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT rpgclass, rpggender, rpgrace, rpgtype, alignment, element, inbattle FROM user WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
$classarrays = "var gd0 = new Array('Unknown','0');\n";
$userstats = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT hp, maxhp, element, ma, maxma, pp, maxpp, ap, posts, xp FROM user WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
$battleopt = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM battle_options");
$level = getlevel($userstats[xp], $battleopt[exprate], 1);
$warning = "you may not change your RPG information once you reach level 5";
$showlevel = floor($level + 1);

if (!ismoderator()) {
$specclasses = "WHERE visible=1";
}

//################## Locked Stats Addon by Moreliator and Kirby King at smashboards.com ##################
if ($level > 4) {
$alignmentoptions = "<option value=\"al$user[alignment]\" DISABLED>Your Alignment is locked (Level 5+)</option>";
$classoptions = "<option value=\"$user[rpgclass]\" DISABLED>Your Class is locked (Level 5+)</option>";
$raceoptions = "<option value=\"$user[rpgrace]\" DISABLED>Your Race is locked (Level 5+)</option>";
$elementoptions = "<option value=\"$user[element]\" DISABLED>Your Element is locked (Level 5+)</option>";
$genderoptions = "<option value=\"gd$user[rpggender]\" DISABLED>Your Gender is locked (Level 5+)</option>";
$rpgtypename = "Predetermined";
$rpgtypeid = $user[rpgtype];

} ELSE {

next (near the end of the rpg code section in member.php) find $rpgtypeid = $user[rpgtype];
}
and REPLACE with
$rpgtypeid = $user[rpgtype];
}
}

Now, if you want to edit your template to let users know why their RPG options are locked, continue to follow the instructions for the modifyprofile template edit. If you have edited your modifyprofile template before, it may look different than what you find below. Finally, ff you do not wish to edit your template, you are done :)

in the MODIFYPROFILE template, find
$customfields
and AFTER it add <tr>
<td bgcolor="#1D6AA0" colspan="2">
<normalfont color="#EEEEFF" class="thtcolor"><b>RPG Options -</normalfont></b>
<i><smallfont color="#EEEEFF" class="thtcolor"> $warning</smallfont></i>

update: i think IM gunna set MYSELF to it, lol, i have no desire to battle....:-p also, you can set the 'default' to 1(on) 0 (off) based on what you would like the most. i set it to on default...

@ Darkwaltz4: That attachment is the add-on for the option to not accept challenges? If so... excellent! :D Also, I noticed you updated your signature. The Monster Arena part caught my eye pretty quickly. How much do you think it will cost? PM me if you wish to. Later.

Moreliator and Darkwaltz4... THANK YOU!!! Great job :D Alot of people are going to be happy to have those add-ons

Sonic3d you may want to check your classes and race stats, you may have their strength too high.

thanks, and BTW, I just added something to my addon post a few minutes ago...if you tried to install it before, it should have all worked, except the $rpgtypeid returned nothing... all you have to do is add 'rpgtype' to the initial $user query... if you haven't installed it yet, and you are reading this message, than don't worry about it because it has been fixed in my original post with the addon :)

This addon works 100% for me now. I just had overlooked the $rpgtypeid thing... sorry about that.

Can you verify that they are actually losing HP. Sometimes your maxhp goes up and it makes it look liek you are losing HP, when actually all that is happening is your HP is staying the same and your machp is going up. I am pretty sure this is related to the update stats code.

I think I know what it is. One more thing though, does this happen to everyone every single time, or only some people and not every single time?

Alright bitsy, the donation thing has been fixed.

My other problem is with user records. We have so many people on the boards since the RPG opened up that our database goes down for about 5 minutes at various times during the day. Now if the timing is just right, and a user is finishing the battle just as the databse is going down, their record can get messed up. For example, one guy had listed games played: 1 but then 8 wins.... it appears to happen only when the databse has been down, but I dunno if it can be fixed. Also, when I have to prune battles, the user's record does not update, because as soon as a user enters a battle, it adds one to their "battles fought" category. If I have to prune it before it is finished, the "battles fought" stays the same, making their records off.

I don't really know what to say about the database thing. However, I will look in to the problem with pruning battles.

Does anybody know how the anger system works?Whenever they get angry on my site, they pull off way too much damage. Is there any way that I could lower the attack increase some?



in battleupdate.php, find:
if($user[ap] >= 100) {
If($userlevel < 11) {
$anger = 1.1;
} else {
$anger = $userlevel * .1;
}
$battleaction .= "Uh-oh, looks like someone got mad. ";
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET ap=0 WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
} elseif($mad == 1) {
If($userlevel < 11) {
$anger = 1.1;
} else {
$anger = $userlevel * .1 * ($user[ap] / 100);
if($anger > 1.1)
$anger = 1.1;
}
$battleaction .= "Uh-oh, looks like someone got mad. ";
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET ap=0 WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");

the $anger variable controls how much the user's damage is multiplied by. So, if $anger = 1, then the user's damage will stay the same. If $anger = 1.1, then the user will do 10% extra damage. If $anger = 2, then the user will do 200% extra damage, etc... You can adjust the above setting to your liking. If you want, you can just multiply $anger by .5 when it is above a certain number (like 2.2, since 2.2 * .5 = 1.1 or 10% extra damage).

In the Auto-Update Stats add-on (newthread.php, newpost.php), and member.php, find:

$maxhpupdate = ( $level * $extrastats[hpmodifier] * $hpmulti) + $hpmodifier;

and REPLACE it with:
$maxhpupdate = ( $level * $extrastats[hpmodifier]) + $hpmodifier;

Please note that this will reduce some users' HP, but it should remain constant after that initial decrease. If you want to do the same for MA and PP, then let me know.

Thank you for the update Moreliator ^^

I had to move my files to a new server over the weekend. I took all my files moved them to new servers then filled my new database with the dump file I made from mysql.

Things work fine but the only thing is the items in the itemshop don't show. The items users have show fine but the items in the itemshop don't. Does anyone know why this is? I've checked the database and the table is full of the items. I am just at a loss as of what to do :/


You will probably need to go in to phpmyadmin and change the IDs of several rows in your tables. The tables are rpg_element, rpg_race, rpg_classf, rpg_classm, and rpg_type. You should be looking for the row whose name is "Generic" or "Default". Change the ID of this row to 0 (it should be at 1).

I found a little bug, I set certain items to be exclusive to certain classes. For example I'm a priestess which is categorized under holy type. I also have paladin which is classified as Paladin.

Whenever I go into the item shop, instead of taking me to the holy class only weapons I am instead taken to the Paladins weapons, I can even purchase them.

It doesn't seem to recognize I'm not a paladin unless I go and click on some other category like Mage or something.

Thanks, will be fixed in the next version, I think. Quick fix:

In itemshop.php, find:

$pos = strpos($selitem[type], $itemtype);
if($pos !== false || $catcheck[type] == 1) {
And REPLACE with:
if(in_array($itemtype, explode(' ', $selitem['type'])) || $catcheck[type] == 1) {

Let me know if that works. If not, then I need to do something else :)

Actually I got it for it to do it right after the battle.

It's a crappy code but it works and no problems so far. I'm sure there is a easier way to do the code but oh well.

In battleupdate.php find:
function endbattle($winnerid, $loserid) {
global $DB_site, $bbuserinfo, $battle, $username, $opponentname, $battleaction;
$itemopt = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT lesanestore FROM items_options");
if(!$itemopt[0]) {
$newmoney = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT bankval FROM items_user WHERE userid='$winnerid'");
$newmoney = $newmoney[bankval] + $battle[wager] * 2;
$DB_site->query("UPDATE items_user SET bankval='$newmoney' WHERE userid='$winnerid'");
} else {
$newmoney = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT storep FROM user WHERE userid='$winnerid'");
$newmoney = $newmoney[0] + $battle[wager] * 2;
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET storep='$newmoney' WHERE userid='$winnerid'");
}
$DB_site->query("UPDATE battle_stats SET wins=wins+1 WHERE userid='$winnerid'");
$DB_site->query("UPDATE battle_stats SET losses=losses+1 WHERE userid='$loserid'");
$totalwager = $battle[wager] * 2;
if($winnerid == $bbuserinfo[userid]) {
$battleaction .= "$username was awarded $$totalwager for winning the battle.";
} else {
$battleaction .= "$opponentname was awarded $$totalwager for winning the battle.";
}

Add after:
$healuser = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM user WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
$level = getlevel($healuser['xp'], $healuser['exprate'], 1);
$ep = floor (100 * ($level - floor ($level)));
$showlevel = floor ($level + 1);
if($showlevel == 1){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}
if($showlevel == 2){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}
if($showlevel == 3){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}
if($showlevel == 4){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}
if($showlevel == 5){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}
if($showlevel == 6){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}
if($showlevel == 7){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}
if($showlevel == 8){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}
if($showlevel == 9){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}
if($showlevel == 10){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}

I'm gonna redo it like the other one looks in the battle update file

[Darkwaltz4]

why not just


if($showlevel >=1 and $showlevel <= 10){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}

[kaotic]

So...


$healuser = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM user WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
$level = getlevel($healuser['xp'], $healuser['exprate'], 1);
$ep = floor (100 * ($level - floor ($level)));
$showlevel = floor ($level + 1);
if($showlevel >=1 and $showlevel <= 10){
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET hp=maxhp WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
}


...would automatically heal users that are level 10 (and under) after a battle ends?

The winner should be able to join another battle as long as they have confirmed the end of the last one, regardless of the confirmation of the other combatants.

If he tries to join another battle after completing a previous one and gets the "You are already in battle." message, then that is not supposed to happen. However, the invalid battle message is displayed when a battle has not started or already ended. So, I am not sure what to make of it.

At the top of battleupdate.php, you will see:
// formula for calculating the amount of damage done by fists
function cal_fists($level) {
return floor(log10($level) * 30 + rand(-(int)($level * .15), (int)($level * .15))) + 1;
}

You can change that formula to adjust the amount of damage done by fists.

There is a 50% chance that you will hurt yourself if the opponent is wearing armor.

Not sure if this has been asked already but figured id give it a shot. Is it possible to add more stats or change the current ones? also is it possible to add a unique character or a person lets say a admin has one and another admin has a diffrent one etc. and normal players cant choose it if this was posted already sorry ><.

[Darkwaltz4]

umm...well i posted an attempted fix which i never tried, but supposedly it didnt work, as for the 'default' view in the itemshop, you can do two things:

first, set all links to the itemshop as itemshop.php?itemtype=$bbuserinfo[rpgtype]

and then first find the TYPE ID of your generic items that you have, and then find in itemshop.php (i dont have the file but i know it is in there)

something like $itemtype = 0;

it should be in the code which checks if itemtype is set...change the 0 to the generic type id.

i myself did a added a new rpg type to which NO classes were applied to, and called it 'Certain Type'

then i applied all the items to show up in this type....so basically, i now had an itemshop which had all the items in it to view, a combination itemshop, for everyone to see :-p and then it would say in the purchase area, 'You must be a Certain Type to purchase' catch my drift? well that type happened to have an id of 5, which i applied to itemshop.php, and now....even if you are not registered, you will see my combination itemshop :-p check it out::

I dont get the formula can someone explain >_<"

Wow... so what exactly did you do to put up the 'specific type' warning when purchasing an item? Or is that private information? :p

[Mijae]

HUGE Money bug:

Alright, after thorough testing with ****** you'll notice our bank accounts are extremely high? why? We/I found the bug. I wouldn't have been on the right track if it weren't for him.

Basically when you challenge a person for a battle you can bet all the money you have.

Then you go back and cancel the battle. At this point the BANK account will add the account money on hand for some reason. This happens to both players. Doubling the amount on hand for the original battler. And adding the equiv to the opponent. And there ya go.

Anyone want to release a quick fix? My members are having way too much fun with this :P

i just said what i did :-p i created a type to which i put no classes on, and called it 'Certain Type' mainly so that i could create a nice illusion. if ur in a 'wrong' itemshop, it would normally give you this (say you were a magician type and was in the warrior itemshop): You need to be a Warrior Type to purchase

see? so if i wanted a combo intemshop, then i needed something which nobody could *be*, and i could have it display for EVERYONE that a certain type was needed :-p i cant think of a better way to explain it...

lol, you alone shoul dbe able to experience my tinkering firsthand :-p

[kaotic]

Ohh, my bad. I didn't understand it at first, I suppose. I'll work with it now. :)

hm here is a bad bug

I was challenged by a user
I was in trouble so i cancel the battle
The user , has lost his wager...and i win the wager...without a fight, only the challenge PM.

What´s that?

[Darkwaltz4]

lol, the variables arent defined in the index.php page :-p

[ff8_bomb]

Ive installed this hack and everything seems to be working correctly but Im having one small little error. In my profile, where people are supposed to set their stats, the race, gender, biography, ect. forms appear once at the top, and once at the bottom. The only one that works though is the one at the bottom. How do I get rid of the one on the top?

[PixelFx]

ff8_bomb

its a cosmetic hack for your profile, you have to go into the template for your profile, having brain fart, as to which one, and edit it. there are two sections you delete in the top one that removes the top rpg name, and some double code that has the rpg info at the top of the profile.

I'm going to reinstall it again soon, when I do I'll post a link for the changed code... in the mean time I have a weapons and armor art upgrade I'm working on..

Bitsys,

how stable ya think the next release of the battle system will be?

any new addons or just lots of bug fixes? :)

[Brandon]

For some reason, my users' stats arent showing up at all. It keeps saying their at 0 HP and everything else, but mine works fine. Why is that?

[DSP-The Don]

I have a problem with the Battle.php. Whenever I try to create a battle, it won't remember the battle password I specified. For an example, my private message I get is:

The Wolf has challenged you in a battle. It is battle number 8 and is called donvswolf. There is 0 gil at stake in this battle. Your battle password is . To go to your battle click here

the battle was a test battle. I tried the $key to $key1 and in the battle_newbattle: key to key1 but it's still not working. I know this is password related because you need a password to get on the battle (which I too wonder why you even need a password). Please help!

I'm running vB 2.3.0
The hack is installed on a production board because I'm part psycho. :confused:

[Darkwaltz4]

eh, sorry...but just what exactly were you looking to put up on index.php? the latest battle? i myself am getting sick of editing my index.php, there are 118 queries on it ^_^

[Kurayami]

*Raises hand*
I would be very interested in adding this to my front page as well... sort of a news ticker type-thing that displays the last five battles--with the appropriate character images for each character, names, battle name, and a link to the battle.
T'would be very spiffy indeed. :)

This will fix the dual fields problem in your edit profile. Please read the attached text file.

Let me know if you have any other problems. You should have a full install of the battle system on your forum before adding this.

If you have other changes to your "modifyprofile" make sure you make note of it.

-Would a Item Trading or PvM feature be possible to create?
-What is the query used to purchase an item?

Help would be appreciated. :)

Edit:
Another question. :) Item categories (with exception of the top one) are automatically collapsed if you are "Generic Type". If you are another RPG type, the rows are automatically expanded. How would I go about having them collapsed to begin with, rather than expanded?

[TRStealth]

Anyone know / think this hack is stable enough for a production environment?

Also, does this come with a clan system?

[kaotic]

Several large message boards already utilize this hack. I would say it's good enough for a production board.

And there is somewhat of a clan system. They're called "Alignments" in this case. I believe the default alignments are "Good" and "Evil" but you can set the clan name as an option. If you have a clan called "RPGers" add a new alignment called "RPGers" and anyone will be able to choose to be Good, Evil, or RPGers. :)

[PixelFx]

I'm personally waiting to see how stable the next update is and to help with any bugs, but I think it's getting close to production server level.

Depends on how well you know php/mysql/html editing your self, to fix anything that still might be buggy.

Alright, thanks for the help guys. So these alignments can only be created by admins? Might work... I take it there's also a money system.

[DSP-The Don]

I got the password problem solved by doing that key to key1 variable change. I did install it on a production board because my friends thought the hack kicked ass. After testing out the battle system (which went with no problem!), my friends all want to battle each other (I had to ban one of my friends for spamming the forums though. I even gave him a second chance to repent).

Great work on a great hack :D

[TRStealth]

Alright, I've installed it on my boards and everything seems to be running smoothly. Had a small problem with the battle though, it said I didn't have a weapon....

[kaotic]

You have to go to "Edit Item Type" (or something simliar) via your Admin CP, and check each item to fit your type. The default type = Generic.

[TRStealth]

They are all checked, and still can't use weapons or items, still says I don't have them.

[Darkwaltz4]

lol, yes i would say its okay enough for a large active forum^_^ ffgon is pretty huge, and its been working fine...although ive had to tweak some thigs here and there, and im not sure what good any updates would do me unless there were official addons applied or something, lol. it is finally stable on mine :-p

[Moreliator]

Been working fine for a month on my boards... 10,000+ members and over 1500 battles so far.

Sure, there are SOME glitches, but we've been able to work through them all, and nothing has been serious enough to jeopardize the boards.

[Jagang]

I have a little problem with the hack--nothing major, but a weird occurance.

Several of my older members, the mods, have less hitpoints than members of quite a lower level. Our site is, so far, still in the beta testing phase, and fairly new, so noone is very high level yet, but it appears to be a trend that will continue and get far, far worse as the levels do go up. Our main programmers are not available for a good period of time because of IRL issues to go into the codes and find out, so I came here to ask the source.

After the stats are updated, it looks like this for certain users, names will not be used. Most of the mods are about the same level and HP count, and from extrapolating with other mods and members who have been around since the begginning as opposed to new members, it appears that the trend carries through. The mods are all using superior classes, and the race, elements, weaponry, etc of the two example users are all the same.

Level 44 Mod
1582 HP

Level 35 Member
1880 HP

[Darkwaltz4]

its based on posts per day and how long youve been registered O.o which in my opinion, screws up amounts far too much, so i rewrote it to be more linear

Not sure if this has been asked already but figured id give it a shot. Is it possible to add more stats or change the current ones? also is it possible to add a unique character or a person lets say a admin has one and another admin has a diffrent one etc. and normal players cant choose it if this was posted already sorry ><.


What do you mean by unique character? A unique class? Or a unique race? Or what?

You can add more stats, but only through code edits and database changes. There is no way to add stats through the admin cp.

I dont get the formula can someone explain >_<"

The formula:

function cal_fists($level) {
return floor(log10($level) * 30 + rand(-(int)($level * .15), (int)($level * .15))) + 1;
}

floor() is a function that rounds the result down to the nearest whole number.

log10() is a function that does log base 10 to the passed variable.

rand() is a function that generates a random number between the two passed variables.

* is the multiplication symbol

So, here is how it works with a level of 15:

$damage = log10(15) * 30 + rand(-15 * .15, 15 * .15) + 1

$damage = 1.176 * 30 + rand(-2.25, 2.25) + 1

(Assume the rand() function returns 1.8)

$damage = 35.2827 + 1.8 + 1

$damage = 28.0827

(round down to the nearest whole number)

$damage = 28

However when I place the code in the forum index template nothing shows. This is what I tried:

$row[owner]

That would require a custom hack.

From the first post:
In order to assign which weapon categories do what kind of damage in battle, you must go to the "Edit Category" link located in the "Edit Items" menu of the admin cp. Select a Battle type for the category and save changes.

I have a little problem with the hack--nothing major, but a weird occurance.

Several of my older members, the mods, have less hitpoints than members of quite a lower level. Our site is, so far, still in the beta testing phase, and fairly new, so noone is very high level yet, but it appears to be a trend that will continue and get far, far worse as the levels do go up. Our main programmers are not available for a good period of time because of IRL issues to go into the codes and find out, so I came here to ask the source.

After the stats are updated, it looks like this for certain users, names will not be used. Most of the mods are about the same level and HP count, and from extrapolating with other mods and members who have been around since the begginning as opposed to new members, it appears that the trend carries through. The mods are all using superior classes, and the race, elements, weaponry, etc of the two example users are all the same.

Level 44 Mod
1582 HP

Level 35 Member
1880 HP

You can try to do the following:

In the Auto-Update Stats add-on (newthread.php, newpost.php), and member.php, find:

$maxhpupdate = ( $level * $extrastats[hpmodifier] * $hpmulti) + $hpmodifier;

and REPLACE it with:
$maxhpupdate = ( $level * $extrastats[hpmodifier]) + $hpmodifier;

Please note that this will reduce some users' HP, but it should remain constant after that initial decrease. If you want to do the same for MA and PP, then let me know.

What do you mean by unique character? A unique class? Or a unique race? Or what?

You can add more stats, but only through code edits and database changes. There is no way to add stats through the admin cp.


A unique class, and as for the stats thing *sorry to bother but im really sorta learning php still* can you like tell me what files are necesarry to edit to make it happen?

Thnx for the answer and wb :)

I keep getting this emailed to me - I think it is due to using spells or potions -

A unique class can be given to any mod or admin by setting its visibility to 0 in the Edit Classes Menu. Unfortunately, you can't give a single class to a single person.

In order to add a new stat, you would have to change quite a few files. Off the top of my head, they would be member.php, rpgcp.php, battlefight.php, battleupdate.php, newthread.php, newpost.php, heal.php. Some of those are optional though, depending on what you want the stat to do. You would also have to change all the templates where the stats are displayed.

Adding an additional stat is not an easy feat.

At any time did you switch an item category from personal to public or vice versa? Do you recall any changes you made to the item categories before this happened? An easy solution would be to add those columns back to the items_user table, but I would rather figure out why this happened.

I don't think I switched categories. The only new categories were shops created by users.

I changed the battle type - I have narrowed it down - it is the Spells that don't work. I changed the items to Potions and it worked fine, but whenever I select Spells, everything just dies.

This thing is also bugging me - battles are working fine apart from the spells thing as per last post, I've updated stats repeatedly, but postbit info shows up as -

What file is that database error coming from? Also, do you have a link to your forums so that I can see the IDs of the item categories?

What happens when you change the spell category to something other than spells? Does the error still occur?

Wait, before answering those questions, try the following:

In battlefight.php, find:
$itemcats = $DB_site->query("SELECT id, battletype FROM items_cats ORDER BY battletype");
and REPLACE it with:
$itemcats = $DB_site->query("SELECT id, battletype FROM items_cats WHERE type = 0 ORDER BY battletype");

Let me know if that doesn't work.

Hmm, I am not too sure. Try the following:

In admin/function.php, find:
if($post[$xc]!="No Item") {
and CHANGE it to
if($post[$xc]!="No Item" AND $nr == XX) {

Change XX to the ID of the pet category. You should be able to find the ID in the admin cp.

Go to vbhacker. Select my hack and at the bottom select "Generate a text file". Then click the "Proceed with this hack" button. Scroll down until you find the templates and template edits.

Another way you could do this, once you get your other templates working again, is to go through the auto-install process of vbhacker, but instead of doing everything, just select to do the new templates and template edits.

Not right now. I may find a way to do it later though. The reason why they aren't automatically expanded is because it uses a lot of queries. Since the default itemshop page has the most queries, I decided to contract all of the categories so that people who didn't care about looking at all the items wouldn't eat up a bunch of queries.

What are the order values for each category?

This hack is compatible with lesane's store hack. All you need to do is go into the Itemshop Options menu and select "yes" for "I have Lesane's Store Hack installed and I want to use Lesane's Store's points system rather than the RPG Integration Hack's point system."

Note that when using Lesane's Store points the bank will not work.

EDIT: I just realized this also is affecting some of the other profile fields, Location, Biograhpy, Intrests and Occupation.

Can anyone please tell me how to fix this I really enjoy this hack.

Bitsys, I'd just like to let you know that my forums have now hit over 2,000 battles. I still do not have any major glitches. We had a few monetary problems in the past, but with the rewritten money part for wagering and stuff that you released in the past week I have had no problem since.

I just wanted to let you know this, because my users are using this hack extensively and it is holding up very nicely. I have multiple addons made for this RPG, and still no problems.

Rewriting the script to take money from pocket and not bank would, however, be beneficial IMO.

The only problem we have now is battle records. Is there anyway you could write a script that goes through and corrects battle records? Some of our members have like 90 battles played, but only 5 wins and 2 losses... it works the other way too, sometimes a member will have 30 games played but like 90 wins. I've narrowed it down to two things:
1) Battle Records mess up when our Database goes down in the middle of a battle ending report

2) There have been instances where a user repeatedly presses the "Acknowledge Results" button, causing record errors.


Its not really a glitch though, just a small problem :P

Good Work, and thanks. Looking forward to that final version :)

The bad part about that is that they can do something like create a post, deposit the money, and delete the post. They'd be able to keep the money with no problem. I have it set up like that (was forced to because I use the store hack), and the members found out how it worked. :(

[Moreliator]

hmm, good point kaotic. Well then I would just leave it alone, because the only downside of it is that it stops the interest process... but if they really wanted to save they will just have to not do any transactions.

ahh yep ^_^ i believe the latest battle id is 3012 on my forums, and ive gotten all the glicthes out of my version. in fact i dont think ill be updating any more unless there is something being added on which i havent already :-p although there was just a nagging problem with interest not working on time on my forums, but i rewrote it myself. did that ever happen to anyone? i honestly never checked or bothered to report it cause i fixed it :-p

also, if your users cant help but hit the submit button a zillion times....i suggest you put up a javascript submit-disabler script. we currently use one on a different hack, and that solves all the problems of hitting submit too much :-p

[TheVoidz]

Bitsys, I am having some problems with the rpg variables in memeber.php and showthread.php can I send you the code and can you check it for me, becasue I am lost..

Hello~! ^_^! I have a little problem.. I can't seem to Donate any points to my members nor can any of my members donate to others. Donating, i meant through the postbit ( http://puccafan.com/lounge/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1449 ) I think the code is right b/c I copy and pasted it from the Manual. I'm not sure what's going on? The Battle is OFF for now and I'm not using Leasane's Store. I'm using VB 2.3.0.

Help would be much appreciated, thank you for your time!

Is this hack still under development?

I can see lack of updates for a while...

Is there any gallery of working RPG hack sites somewhere?

That would be cool.

I also just got::


just to let ya know people sometimes get robbed by the store

Ahh i wish i could go to the previous version, it didnt have so many bugs.


Ok, I just finished re-writing the money code in battleupdate.php. While I was at it, I re-formatted the code in battleupdate.php as well.

How are they getting robbed? the money is taken away but they aren't getting the item?

i have been asking this addon many times
i think it is not hard thing
CAN ANY 1 make IT ?
user add a new battle without challenged person
then in browse battles page .. in the challenged person field .. make a link (enter) and fight the challenger ..

too esey .. right :) ?

so, can any 1 make it ?

THX


Unfortunately, the battle structure doe not easily permit persistent challengers like you are thinking of. When a battle is created, neither user can be in battle nor can the battle start until the opponent accepts the battle. A new field in the user table and a new usercp option would have to be added to allow what you are thinking of.

In the admin cp, go to Modify Profile Fields. Make sure everything looks fine there (no duplicates, etc...). After that, send me your member.php so that I can make sure the file edits were correctly done by the installer.

Well, the battle script is supposed to automatically detect hitting the submit button too many times - it is called an illegal move in battleupdate.php. However, you can try to do what darkwaltz said and use javascript to disable the submit button after it is pressed. I can't do much about the databse going down unless it is a problem with the RPG Hack that is causing itt to go down.

There isn't a really good way of fixing the battle records since the battle posts and battles themselves are deleted after the battle is over. THe onyl thing I can tell you to do is edit each user's battle record manually in the RPG-> Edit Users Menu of the admin cp.

Thanks for letting me know the new money code is working. It will definately be going in the next version.

That would be a problem no matter where the money goes (bank or pocket). Since there is no transaction record for what money is obtained through which posts, there isn't a reasonable solution to the deleting posts problem.

So far things have been going good on my forums battle mod.

Only a few minor things I wanted to report to you.

Some of my members complain about not getting interest from the bank. Some do and some say they don't and some others say they are getting too much interest (like 21%). Also I'm not sure if this is correct or not but they say that any bank activity will reset the 24 hour interest waiting period.

If they only go to the itemshop once a week, then they will get the normal interest (10%) compounded over a 7 day period, which can make it look like it is 21%.

Yes, any bank activity within the 24 hours resets the 24 hour mark.

Also to save space and make it look nicer I removed the code in battle template so that it doesn't show the items a user has. Does this interfer with anything, because now for some reason I can't use shield no matter how many times I buy and resell and then re buy it >.< (also some people complain about not being able to use magic spells) I even updated my rpg info and checked the item category and still no luck.
If you just changed a template, then there shouldn't be any problem.

Shields don't work (unless you have Darkwaltz's addon installed) anyhow.

For spells, if the user doesn't have any MA, then they can't use the spell. Are the user's sure they had enough MA to use the spell?

Also the change where you can make only one item worked perfectly but is there any way to list them all seperatly? I used this code that you provided:

Hmm, I am not too sure. Try the following:

In admin/function.php, find:

PHP:

if($post[$xc]!="No Item") {


and CHANGE it to

PHP:

if($post[$xc]!="No Item" AND $nr == XX) {


Change XX to the ID of the pet category. You should be able to find the ID in the admin cp.

That worked great but no other items show, I was wondering if there is a way to show them all seperate. I really don't want the pet to show up on the battle screen XD


Well, if you know the category ID, then you can keep adding "AND $nr == XX" to the if statement and it will only include items that are in that category. If you want to exclude a category, just put "AND $nr != XX".

I installed the VB Arcade not long ago and it seems to be bugging things out on my forum I wonder if the VB Arcade and the battle mod are compatible with each other? I really should uninstall the arcade but my members will miss it >.> I wonder if anyone else here has any problems with the battle mod and arcade mod both installed?

Sorry for such a long post, I've been busy this week and meanwhile my members have come up with a long list of things they want me to do XD

Hmm, I have no idea if this hack works with vb Arcade. I have never installed it.

Hey all.
I have found another error when installing the hack on my new forum.
I had an extra profile feild named Favourite Game.
When I installed the hack and set up the postbit where the cash is meant to come up the favourite game appeared instead.
How can I set it up so the money appears?

[Areku]

Thanks so much Bitsys! Keep up the good work!

Just installed on a fresh clean 2.3.0 and it went smooth.

We'll see how hard is to translate to spanish.

I might send you the files if you're interested in a multilingual version but I guess u're busy enough ;)


Ah! btw! Installing any of the add-ons will make future updates of the RPG hack harder to apply? Impossible? Possible?


Thanks!

Please do the following:

1. Go to your admin panel
2. Go to modify user profile fields
3. Find the Pointfield profile field
4. Right click over the edit link and go to copy shortcut
6. Copy it in your browser
7. Near the end there will be a number. Remember that number
8. Go to edit the itemshop options
9. In the pointfield option put in field# and replace number with the number you recorded in step 7.

It is certainly possible to do. Some people are satisfied with the current version and don't feel like they will update in the future. Others will probably update and re-apply the add-ons, since they are relatively easy to do. It all depends on your confidence with doing an upgrade to a hack that has been hacked ;)
