VIP/Premium System question

[BahamutxD]

Been around for some time and I still don't know what's that VIP system I see everywhere.

Is like being premium account in Tibia or?


I'm in the process of implementing some kind of premium account system to my server and this question popped to me. I would like that people is able to purchase this "premium" status that will only allow them to access premium areas, promotion and other stuff just like in Tibia and I want this to be purchased either ingame or if I ever want to moniterize the server, through the web with rl money.

Thanks in advance.

yea vip system is like premium
but because in most of servers they gave free pacc
they create vip area

and all system you can use by vip system u can make it with normal premmy days
just change the name of function

for example
if getPlayerPremiumDays(cid) >= 1
if getPlayerVipDays(cid) >= 1

and do staff

There is normal accounts, premium accounts and vip accounts , but everything depends on how you want to make it

Premium is like tibia rl (happy hour, more spells) but not the acces to unique areas. This is often obtainable ingame or even free from the start
And there is the Vip account (usually vthrought website with rl money) and that gives acces to unique areas and content.

But as I said this is like most ppl do it, but you can configure it however you want

kikos .. you can make vip account get happy hour to and etc..
as i said it's just function name

but u can use the same script system

yea i know, vip account is just a plus status to the premium one with every benefit from the others

and to use getPlayerVipDays first you need to "install" that function

So premium and vip is basically the same, up to you to make the different. I see no need of this VIP system for me then.

Just one more question, is there any storage value for premium/normal players? Or how does the server difference them?

the server stores the premium days when you buy them

if getPlayerPremiumDays(cid) > 0 then (if has 1 or more than 1 premium day will do something)
if isPremium(cid) (if is premium no matter how many days will do something)


and yeah if you add a VIP status it will be the same as the other types of account, unless you make something just for those VIP status

 

[EvilSkillz]

function isPremium(cid)
    return (isPlayer(cid) and (getPlayerPremiumDays(cid) > 0 or getBooleanFromString(getConfigValue('freePremium'))))
end

and server read them from database itself

but if u need to make a vip system u add storage
u can make it by database too
