[REVCMS] Simple little addon, random prize award script for client

[xHosts]

Hey

I see people wanting neat little addons for RevCMS
Works with Standard PHX / GTE database

I made a simple random little prize award script, great for using on your client to reward users, easy to expand on and edit

Currently setup to award a random prize of either credits, pixels, shells (vip points) or a furni

Hope its useful for some people

Simply copy and paste the code below at the top of your client.php file and edit prizes for your own hotel

<?php
$random = rand(95,358); // Random number range, closer the min and max more chance of winning
switch ($random){

case 98: // Credits
mysql_query("UPDATE users SET credits = credits+500 WHERE id = '".$_SESSION['user']['id']."'");
echo "<script>alert('Congratulations!, {username} You have won 500 credits');</script>";
break;

case 186: // Pixels
mysql_query("UPDATE users SET activity_points = activity_points+500 WHERE id = '".$_SESSION['user']['id']."'");
echo "<script>alert('Congratulations!, {username} You have won 500 pixels');</script>";
break;

case 356: // Points
mysql_query("UPDATE users SET vip_points = vip_points+50 WHERE id = '".$_SESSION['user']['id']."'");
echo "<script>alert('Congratulations!, {username} You have won 50 points');</script>";
break;

case 239: // furni // Furni ID 202 is throne in basic phx catalogue
mysql_query("INSERT INTO items (`user_id`, `base_item`) VALUES ('".$_SESSION['user']['id']."', 202);");
echo "<script>alert('Congratulations!, {username} You have won a rare throne');</script>";
break;
}

?>

Nice release Johno, keep up the good work!

 

[ToxRetros]

Great release!

 

[LeChris]

Thanks for this mate! It's always nice seeing something original every now and then

 

[MrSpooks]

Ahh cheers for this johno. Nice work

 

[Vaulient]

This can however be further developed , such as having the users to click on a button , lets say "Lucky draw of the day"

Would make thing more fun yeah?


However so , good release , this is something new. Good work

 

[Katrina2015]

Great Release Johno thanks for this will deffo come to good use on Yablow

 

[Brought]

This is awesome!

Idea for anyone who would like to go about doing it - make the hotelview_promos have the option for a random vault crack and when you click the button (once every 24 hrs) it runs this script

Great release! I will be adding this to my hotel for sure.

Is there any way you could make it so that the person receives furni instead of just coins/pixels/points?

 

[Vimsoration]

Thanks, this is really handy. One thing, now everyone is gonna refresh the whole time the client to get prizes.

Look at case 239.

case 239: // furni // Furni ID 202 is throne in basic phx catalogue
mysql_query("INSERT INTO items (`user_id`, `base_item`) VALUES ('".$_SESSION['user']['id']."', 202);");
echo "<script>alert('Congratulations!, {username} You have won a rare throne');</script>";
break;
}

?>

I missed that.. Scrolled through a little too fast I guess. Now I like this even more! This is absolutely genius and a very fun thing to have on a retro. This way that one person that always wins events doesn't get everything that is released to the users. Thank you very much for this! Can't wait to see your future releases, if there will be any of course. Good luck!

Is there any way of making the users win these less or more frequently?

Oh and do you know if this will work for AzureEMU?

Sorry about all the questions, but could you make it so that there is only 1 prize every 24 hours? That would reduce refresh spam and wouldn't hurt the ECO that much.

I highly doubt people are actually that sad to sit refreshing the client just to win a prize.

If you change the range of the random, the smaller the range the higher chance of winning, the bigger the range the less chance of winning, I am nearly done coding a page with a button that allows 1 try per account per day.

Alright thanks, will you be releasing the code for that button? If you are, please tag me on the thread. I'm glad to see that someone on here is still trying to keep this part of the forum alive.

Could you not make it check for your IP and only be able to send x to each IP in the users table as current one time?

It's 2015 and people are still using deprecated MySQL functions in PHP.

It's been 3 Ducking years since it the deprecation was announced.

The mysql_query function is used in rev as default, we have people who are new to the community so why confuse them by using other methods, surely keeping in with the basic's of the cms is far better than just adding any old code to the cms

Teaching new people bad habits is not doing them any favours.

Teaching new people bad habits is not doing them any favours.

Neither is confusing people by making it harder combining multiple types and methods of code into one system.

May i suggest using mt_rand() function instead of rand()? mt_rand is expected to be 4x faster than the rand function, as it uses the Mersene Twister algorithm.
Just a heads up, when everybody else is bitching about the use of mysql_query function >_>
