[request] Hope it's possible!

[Serginov]

A guy on my server came up with a great idea!

Two things you should know before:
I use:
1.5x lootrate
and
Stages:

# [1-50] 80x
# [50-80] 65x
# [80-100] 45x
# [100-140] 30x
# [140-180] 15x
# [180-200] 9x
# [200+] 7x

So here comes my request:
Every friday I want it to be 2.5x lootrate
and
Every sunday I want it to be 50% more experience!
So if you have 80x exp it should be highered to 120x!
and if you have 65x exp it should be highered to 97.5x!

I hope you understand what I mean and I hope it's possible

Thanks in advance!


I use TFS 0.3.4pl2

For the "%" you can use this:

local config = {
	prozent = 50 -- %
	exp = getConfigValue('rateExperience')
	newExp = config.exp / 100 * config.prozent
	}
	setPlayerExtraExpRate(cid, config.exp+config.newExp)

You can make this on a Login Script and you have 50% more exp.
Example:

function onLogin(cid)
local config = {
	prozent = 50 -- %
	exp = getConfigValue('rateExperience')
	newExp = config.exp / 100 * config.prozent
	}
	--
	setPlayerExtraExpRate(cid, config.exp+config.newExp)
	return TRUE
end

I hope that help you :thumbup:.

Thank you(almost knew this xD)
the hardest part for me is: How to make it so this happens every friday and sunday? :S

EDIT;
Do you think this will work?:

  function onLogin(cid)
local config = {
        prozent = 50 -- %
        exp = getConfigValue('rateExperience')
        newExp = config.exp / 100 * config.prozent
        }
        --
     if os.date('%A') == "Friday" then
            setPlayerExtraExpRate(cid, config.exp+config.newExp)
     end
     return TRUE
end

? can't test it now because I'm not home

EDIT2;
If I use Config.exp and in config.lua it's stages = yes will it go after the stage exp then?

 

[Shawak]

@Edit 1: I don't know, I'm not so good in os.date functions.
@Edit 2: No.

But with this one, it change back to the old stages :thumbup:.

function onLogin(cid)
local config = {
        prozent = 50 -- %
        exp = getConfigValue('rateExperience')
        newExp = config.exp / 100 * config.prozent
        }
        --
     if os.date('%A') == "Friday" then
            setPlayerExtraExpRate(cid, config.exp+config.newExp)
     else
            setPlayerExtraExpRate(cid, 1)
     end
     return TRUE
end

I hope I helped you^_^.

ull just have to keep changing every friday/sunday xd

 

[Serginov]

@up
What you mean?

EDIT;
@Shawak
But then I need to use Global Server save to make everyone logout, right? else you can just stay online 24/7 and your experience will not change back. am I right? xD

 

[Shawak]

I think he mean this..

     if os.date('%A') == "Friday" then

What's wrong on it?

@Slaktaren

You testet it yet?

[krille09]

should make a automatic throught source instead, thought i dont know anything about source or "c++"

 

[Serginov]

@Shawak
Will test it soon


EDIT: I get this error:

[03/06/2009 20:34:03] [Warning - Event::loadScript] Cannot load script (data/creaturescripts/scripts/ExtraExpFriday.lua)
[03/06/2009 20:34:03] data/creaturescripts/scripts/ExtraExpFriday.lua:4: '}' expected (to close '{' at line 2) near 'exp'

Can't I use like

exp = getExperienceStage(level)

instead of

exp = getConfigValue('rateExperience')

wouldn't that check the exp rate for the level of the player and then set it +50% ? xD

@Edit

You can use a Global Sevrer save, or you make it so,

Goto data/globalevents/scripts/save.lua

Change..

function onThink(interval, lastExecution)
	doSaveServer()
	return TRUE
end

to..

function onThink(interval, lastExecution)
	doSaveServer()
	if os.date('%A') ~= "Friday" then
		for(getOnlinePayer()) do
			setPlayerExtraExpRate(cid,1)
		end
	end
	return TRUE
end

Script:

local config = {
        prozent = 50, -- %
        exp = getExperienceStage(getPlayerLevel(cid)),
        newExp = config.exp / 100 * config.prozent
        }
        --
     if os.date('%A') == "Friday" then
            setPlayerExtraExpRate(cid, config.exp+config.newExp)
     else
            setPlayerExtraExpRate(cid, 1)
     end
     return TRUE
end

[Serginov]

Gonna test it now.

btw, ain't it easier to just make everything a globalevent?
Like in your globalevent script it will check if the day is friday and then set the exp to 50% more, else setPlayerExtraExpRate(cid, 1) xd

EDIT; It's not working

Someone said the new TFS was STABLE! NO it isn't! everytime I remove a creaturescript and reload it the server fucking crashes

 

[Shawak]

Any error?
