V3Arcade - So long 0 score posting

V3Arcade - So long 0 score posting

If you are like me, you have to hate those games that submit scores of zero - Apply this hack and if the game score is zero when the player hits submit, the player will be taken directly to the high score page for that game. No score or comment will be written!


File to mod: ARCADE.PHP (please backup file first)


FIND:

// This query gets all the information about the session, and the game which was played
	$game = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT gamesessions.*, games.* FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "gamesessions AS gamesessions
						LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "games AS games ON games.shortname=gamesessions.gamename
						WHERE sessionid=$id
						AND userid=$bbuserinfo[userid] LIMIT 1");

Directly below that add:

	if ($game[score] < 1) {
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV=\"REFRESH\" content=\"0; url=./arcade.php?do=scores&name=$game[shortname]\">";
$validatesession = 0;
exit;
	}

Simple as that! Please click install if you use.

how can i remove all 0 score games then...i assume this wont do that auto for me?

If you have existing scores that are Zero - you can remove them from your Arcade adminCP - score settings

Once this little mod is installed, zero scores will no longer be saved.

What about games that work with a negative score? There are a few.

From what I know, V3arcade does not handle scores under 0
