 Posted: Mon Dec 10, 2012 10:08 am Post subject: #27 - Bonus Exp Weekend (ACCEPTED-CLOSED) |
 |
|
files: process_turn.php
bandits only
After line 5534
| Code: | if( ($unitdata[$weapon->target_id]["is_bandit"] == "Y") && ( (date( "w", time())==0) || (date( "w", time())==6)) ) // 0 is sunday, 6 is saturday
$exp*=2;
|
or
everything
After line 5534
| Code: | if( (date( "w", time())==0) || (date( "w", time())==6) ) // 0 is sunday, 6 is saturday
$exp*=2;
|
Note: I am a bit worried about the date and time functions but i don't think they put much strain even if called a lot.
However a more effective way would be to call this once at beginning of script
Anywhere in beginning of script
| Code: | if( (date( "w", time())==0) || (date( "w", time())==6) )// 0 is sunday, 6 is saturday
$weekend=1;
else $weekend=0;
|
then later
After line 5534
| Code: | if($weekend)
$exp*=2;
|
much more practical

I like the weekend idea. I think I am going to respond to these directly in the forum rather then in the email chain that is getting really to long already.

I like this, so long as it is dependent on some sort of moving average of players being on. That is, double XP should be consummate with some extra amount of risk. If only 10 players have deployed in the past 24 hours, you're effectively getting 100% more XP with no additional risk.
This also incentivizes people to get others to play to trigger the XP bonus. |

I support this idea - just incentives to spark it back into mass deployment, or maybe EXP increase on certain planets for a weekend
EG:
Double FP payout on Zedus
Double beacons/payout on Hadeas
Double change of rare mod drop on konu
Increased amount of relics(?)
Double chance of merit

Worth trying if it will spur activity, probably will want to advertise it before implementing it.
Thanks SpaceGhost |

Double PvP-Exp Weekend!
by: Frizz on Saturday the 09th of April 2011 at 09:00am
This weekend all PvP experience is doubled! All experience points earned in player vs. player combat will earn twice the normal amount of experience. Note that kills against Bandits, Sha'Kahr and drones does not qualify for double experience.
This again, one week, then double exp on bandits, chance to merit etc
Support to say the least, lets start with double-EXP

This can be a small mini update that can be ran once every couple of weeks of the month to incentivice drops.
Perhapsan extra discount to deployment to a certain planet/ double beacon payments on hadaes or something?
