Automated Stuff

[AkuTenshi]

What does everyone remember?

-Hide PL area
-Ability to spar
-Gravitron/weighted clothes able to be taken on/off. This could be done by allowing each person to have a box that they could put the amount of % they would like to use. This could be regulated by only allowing the person to put a number up to the amount they have (if i have pants and shirt, then i could put a number up to 7%), this doesnt fully work cause then you cant have the shirt halfway on... but an idea) Maybe a "yes/no" box for each piece of clothing, or a check box.
-chat box in member page that emails the ref and member whatever is posted

Anything else?

I like the idea of being able to take Weighted Clothing on/off. Do you think Uchiha would be able to figure that out pretty easily? Also, has he given you any updates on his progress?

[TheRAGER]

I'm glad some1 read my post. ^_^
I posed the clothes on and off in the beginning of that thread but no1 ever said anything on it.

Another thing you could do is an auto shop. You can even limit the shop to basic items
Some1 with a base could rent a gravitron and train with it w/o going through the ref

Eh, apparently there's still some bugs in the current automated code... I tried using a sensu bean and it tells me "NO CHEATING."

Yeah, it has to do with the formatting. I've only gone through those members pages that I've received email for. The code itself is working, its just your page is formatted wrong.

[Mado]

It's working now, Epyon.

Thanks, Mado. :-D

I do think auto-buying from a shop would be cool, but it's just not PM's style.
It only makes sence that you would have to actually be at a shop to buy something, and that particular shop has to sell the item you are wanting to buy.
I suppose when you are at a shop the ref could turn on an option that allows you to auto-buy...but really what's the point? Seems like a lot of busy work. Might as well just have the ref add it.
Also, with all the glitches that have been found, I can just imagine someone figuring out how to buy stuff for free or buy even when the ref turns off the option.

What you could do if you want to do an auto shop, is making it more expensive then the regular shop due to a delivery charge.

Now that's an interesting idea, snakes!

Interesting indeed...

Ok so one of my thoughts was making the entire joining process almost totally automated. Basically you could write it to where as soon as someone trys to join, an email is sent to someone. That person clicks a link either allowing or disallowing the character. Then the page is automatically created.

The easiest way I can think of to do this is to have the players pages be completely database driven. In other words instead of having pages for each player, there is only one "Stats Page" but the values in the page would be pulled from the database depending on the user. Doing it this way will also allow you to get the usernames/passwords out of the url, which is vulnerable to a dictionary attack.

I like that idea too :D Uchiha is going over the php code right now...I'm not sure what he's doing exactly though. I think optimizing it and a few other things. Are you able to do any of those things, Snakes?

PHP isn't one of the languages I am good at, however I could help lead ya in the right direction.

Hey, I think that Meditate needs to be allowed to refresh every 24 hours, instead of 3x starting at the last time you meditated, it should be coded that you can meditate 3x at any time during each day, restarting at 12am. (i know this was already stated, just putting it up so that i remember)

Second, i think that, although you can auto train every 6 hours, the counter should be set to every 5 hours and 45 minutes. This way if a person ever misses his update, he can atleast get back to his original update time as long as he hits the button.

This is an idea off of mafia wars :), where energy comes every 23 hours a day, instead of 24 hours, allowing people to push back the energy time to when they usually push the button.

I think it'd be better to make it like training, but 3x a day. So every 8 hours, instead of 3x once a day.

I really like this idea and think it should be implemented also with changes in meditate.

[AkuTenshi]

I think you are nerfing nameks enough and need to give it a rest. I will meditate whenever I please, cause meditating is my god given right!

*plays the america theme song*

America, FUCK YAH!

[Mado]

I already planned on changing meditate to once every eight hours, although I do like your idea, Aku, about giving a 15 minute window so that you don't have to hit it on the dot to get all of your trains/meditates in.
