Prediction - Guessing Item
« on: March 24, 2007, 02:52:10 pm »
Basically a user picks what they think they will roll with a six sided dice (giving them a 1 in 6 chance so i'd keep the price low but your choice) and if they are correct they receive a random amount of credits (which you can set when you do item setup) below is the code just save it as Prediction.php


New dice roll animations

Example:

Code: [Select]
<?php


class item_Prediction extends itemTemplate {

    function 
getItemDetails() {
        
$this->authorName 'Inkstains';
        
$this->authorWeb '';
        
$this->authorEmail 'inkstains@nurcharecords.com';
        
        
$this->name "Prediction";
        
$this->desc "Predict what you will roll with the dice";
        
$this->price 10;

        
$this->require_input true;
        
$this->can_use_item true;
        
$this->addInput_editable true;
    }

    function 
getAddInput()
{
global $item_info$db_prefix;
return '<br><b>You must assign a value</b><br>
                        Minimum amount of credits to give: <input type="text" name="info1" value="' 
$item_info[1] . '" /><br />
                        Maximum amount of credits to give: <input type="text" name="info2" value="' 
$item_info[2] . '" /><br />';
                }

    function 
getUseInput() {

        return 
'Select which number you think you will roll: <select name="dieside_" size="1" id="number">
        <option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
        <option value="3">3</option>
<option value="4">4</option>
<option value="5">5</option>
<option value="6">6</option>
  </select>'
;

    }



function 
onUse() {
global $db_prefix$ID_MEMBER$item_info$boardurl;

$failedTextArray = array(
"You rolled a %s <br/><br/>The force is weak in this one",
"You rolled a %s <br/><br/>I don't think you'll be opening a psychic hotline any time soon :p");

srand(time());
$value rand(16);

if($value == $_REQUEST["dieside_"]){
$value1 rand($item_info[1], $item_info[2]);
db_query("UPDATE {$db_prefix}members SET money = money + {$value1} WHERE ID_MEMBER = {$ID_MEMBER}"__FILE____LINE__);
return "<img src='".$boardurl."/Sources/shop/item_images/Roll".$value.".gif' align='texttop'/><br><br>Congratulations your prediction was right you rolled a ".$value." and got ".formatMoney($value1)."";
}else
return sprintf($failedTextArray[array_rand($failedTextArray)], $value);
}



}



?>


enjoy

hi inkstains

I just installed this to play with it, and it works but where do the dice animations show up - the ones in the zip that are numbered 1-6.  I didnt see any when I used my item.  Am I supposed to put them elsewhere?

I put them in the item images folder

 Sadly I've found a bug...I suspect it's to do with php 5.2.1...

8: Undefined variable: rollIs
File: /home/****/smf_clean_install/Sources/shop/items/Prediction.php
Line: 106

 This is one example but each instance of rollIs generates the same problem (Undefined variable: rollIs)...i.e. whenever the user guesses correctly the dice roll number.

I hope you can help.

Thanks.

The item works, but no animations show up when your roll?

Actually when you get it right it shows the animation, but otherwise no.

Hmm.. I've done everything it says to, and I haven't edited anything and it says this when I try to add the item: ERROR: Could not create instance of 'Predictions' item!

help?

i'd say it's because the item file isn't named properly. it should be

Prediction.php

so check the file name and let me know.

Cool item! :D
However, I had a similar problem to David:

"http://www.********/forum/index.php?action=shop;do=inv3;id=454 
8: Undefined variable: rollIs
File: /************/htdocs/forum/Sources/shop/items/prediction.php
Line: 61"

Nothing appeared to go wrong but it logged an error :S
It happened after guessing correctly :P (In this case a "1")

Just wondering if you have any ideas on what caused it and how to fix it? :)

Thanks for the great item! =D
