Rap Battle System -=RBS=-

Ladys and Gentlemen, i give you, The Rap Battle System -=RBS=-


Many people have been requesting this so here it is. Took along time so im hoping it becomes a popular hack :nervous:



Features

Hmmm there are a few. Select the forum which the battle hack works in via the admin cp
Can edit a users win/loss record via the admincp aswell.

When someone wins a battle it automatically adds it to their win count and the opposite if they lose

The thread does not auto close because in my many years of experience people like to post/argue on after a battle is won or lost.

Erm oh and you submit your favourite line from the battle and it will get added to a database, then lines are randomly shown on the forum homepage.

Check the installation.txt for the full list, Also there is loads more features to come. Hopefully some people will release some addons maybe

Screenshot time wohoo

Oh yeah, the install button is your friend

For those of you who are having problems with normal, everyday polls being closed whenever someone votes, I believe I have found the solution.

Open POLL.PHP and find

PHP Code:

        //RBS
        $battlesys = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "battlesys_battles WHERE pollid = '".$pollinfo['pollid']."'");
        $votestowin = $battlesys['votestowin'];
        $splitoptions = explode("|||", $pollinfo['options']);
        $maxvotes = 0;
        $leastvotes = 0;
        foreach ($splitvotes as $number => $vote)
        {
            global $maxvotes;
            global $leastvotes;
            global $splitoptions;
            if ( $vote > $maxvotes ) {
                $maxvotes = $vote;
                $winner = $splitoptions[$number];
                global $winner;
            }
            if ( $vote < $leastvotes or $vote == 0 ) {
                $leastvotes = $vote;
                $loser = $splitoptions[$number];
                global $loser;
            }
        }
        if ( $maxvotes >= $votestowin )
        {
            $DB_site->query_first("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "poll SET active = '0' WHERE pollid = '".$pollinfo['pollid']."'"); //close poll
            //$winnerinfo = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE username = '".$winner."'");
            $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET bs_wins = bs_wins + 1 WHERE username = '".$winner."'");
            $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET bs_loses = bs_loses + 1 WHERE username = '".$loser."'");
            
        }
        //RBS 


And replace with

PHP Code:

        //RBS
        $battlesys = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "battlesys_battles WHERE pollid = '".$pollinfo['pollid']."'");
        if($battlesys)
        {
            $votestowin = $battlesys['votestowin'];
            $splitoptions = explode("|||", $pollinfo['options']);
            $maxvotes = 0;
            $leastvotes = 0;
            foreach ($splitvotes as $number => $vote)
            {
                global $maxvotes;
                global $leastvotes;
                global $splitoptions;
                if ( $vote > $maxvotes ) {
                    $maxvotes = $vote;
                    $winner = $splitoptions[$number];
                    global $winner;
                }
                if ( $vote < $leastvotes or $vote == 0 ) {
                    $leastvotes = $vote;
                    $loser = $splitoptions[$number];
                    global $loser;
                }
            }
            if ( $maxvotes >= $votestowin )
            {
                $DB_site->query_first("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "poll SET active = '0' WHERE pollid = '".$pollinfo['pollid']."'"); //close poll
                //$winnerinfo = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE username = '".$winner."'");
                $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET bs_wins = bs_wins + 1 WHERE username = '".$winner."'");
                $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET bs_loses = bs_loses + 1 WHERE username = '".$loser."'");
                
            }
        }    
        //RBS

P.S.

I'll post updates soon... just give me some time to test them... a few days or so... i should have the LOSS and K.O. updates for you all - then if i get to start on a new CHALLENGE system - i'll have MindTrix post the new updates in a zip file...

[Pro]

hmmm... while testing this on my site the person i "battled" (just for test purposes) ended up recieving 1 win out of 6 battles - although now i have 6 losses LOL... so i gotta look into this again... something's not right.

i've started looking into the Challenge system as well...

Has anyone tried to use this for other competitions like graphics, poetry, etc...?

[Jmonto]

is there a post limit that a user must have before being able to vote? also does it show who voted?

[mopfool]

I need some help

1) When trying to add a line that contains an apostrophe (') as a favorite (when posting a reply to a battle), I get a database error. Otherwise, it works fine.

2) This is a pretty general question. You can't select your favorite line in the quick reply box, so is there any way to turn off the quick reply box for just the rap battle forum and leave it on for all others?

Thanks,
mopfool=]

Slashes don't get added on data submitted to the database (quotes (') don't get escaped), which is quite imortant :| !

[dndog]

I notice on the Rap Battle System, you added extra blanks to the postbit:

How could I just incorporate a few fields into my regular postbit?

That would be great!
