With the hack as is, you will just be out of credits, and thats the end of it until you do whatever is required by the admin, to get more credits. Your access level will not change.

HOWEVER - Just for you my friend, I have created the following addon which which allow you to do just that!

Updated: 01-25-2005 - The following is an 'Add On' mod which will allow you to define a default usergroup that the user will be placed into, once he has used up all of his game plays. This will remove the user from his/her 'premium' access level and place them into a 'normal' access level that you define in your usergroup manager. Further, it will reset his credit level (IE: totalplays) back to 0. In doing so, it makes it much easier for that user to resubscribe, and regain instant access via subscription.

This 'Add-On' assumes you have already installed the hack, as is, above.

Run the following Query to set the field in your SQL DB - Dont forget to add your prefix if needed:

ALTER TABLE usergroup ADD COLUMN expiretousergroupid smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL default '0';

IN FILE: admin/undergroup.php FIND:

'pmquota' => 0, 'playquota' => 0, 'pmsendmax' => 5, 'attachlimit' => 1000000,

REPLACE IT WITH THE FOLLOWING:

'pmquota' => 0, 'playquota' => 0, 'expiretousergroupid' => 0, 'pmsendmax' => 5, 'attachlimit' => 1000000,

FIND:

print_input_row("How many Games can they Play ? <dfn>You can restrict them to how many games they can play in the arcade</dfn>", 'usergroup[playquota]', $usergroup['playquota'], 1, 20);

DIRECTLY BELOW IT ADD:

print_chooser_row("What usergroup is assigned when all plays are used ? <dfn>This will become their new DEFAULT usergroup.</dfn>" , 'usergroup[expiretousergroupid]', 'usergroup', $usergroup['expiretousergroupid']);
	if (!empty($user['membergroupids']))
	{
		$usergroupids = $user['usergroupid'] . (!empty($user['membergroupids']) ? ',' . $user['membergroupids'] : '');
		print_chooser_row($vbphrase['display_usergroup'], 'user[displaygroupid]', 'usergroup', iif($user['displaygroupid'] == 0, -1, $user['displaygroupid']), $vbphrase['default'], 0, "WHERE usergroupid IN ($usergroupids)");
	}
	$tempgroup = $user['usergroupid'];
	$user['usergroupid'] = 0;

Save the File, Upload it and move onto the next step.

IN FILE: arcade.php FIND:

if ($bbuserinfo['totalplays'] > $permissions['playquota'] OR ($bbuserinfo['totalplays'] == $permissions['playquota']))
{

DIRECTLY BELOW THIS ADD:

$expirestogroup = $permissions['expiretousergroupid'];
$DB_site->query("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user SET usergroupid='$expirestogroup', totalplays=0 WHERE userid = $bbuserinfo[userid]");

Save the File, Upload it. All modifications are now complete!

Make sure you now also define the default access level the user will be placed in once his game plays are complete.

I updated the usergroupmanager.gif thumbnail as well, in this post.

Enjoy!
