[Request] Redemption Command with a random modifier.

[XpcTV]

Hey!


First of all if this is the wrong place, feel free to move my post.



The points system is great, and I have had a lot of success with it, but over time some of the very hardcore viewers I have accumulate more than they will ever need.

I thought of a few ways to get some of it out of the system, one is the redemption command which is already explained here on the forums, another is a lottery, which works sort of in the same way, it's just at random, with a high chance of getting nothing.


I'd like the initial command to be something like !lottery, which then takes an amount of currency from the person using it and randoms between 1-1000


Each number then represents a prize or a loss, something like:

If you roll:

1 you win 10.000 coins
2-5 you get mod for a day
6-10 Vip Bronze
11-20 Vip Silver
21-30 Vip Gold
31-40 Itunes gift card
41-50 Custom join sound
51-1000 bad luck

These are just examples.

If someone rolls bad luck, the bot should say so, and then each prize should have it's own win message.

Similar to redemption it would be nice with a note of unfulfilled prize winners.


Is this possible at all?


P.S I talked to IanChandler1990, he said

well in your case for random gift this will be used @if@[data||matchWith||matchedResult||FailResult]

I would like to customize it. I really want to know how it can be done.

great you for the perfect information you have published here.

Yes that is very possible to do with DeepBot custom commands and the custom logs folder.

1.) Someone enters the command !lottery (or whatever you want  to call it), first the game will need to check that the user has  the correct amount of points. This could be done with the  command "cost" settings or you can create your own more elaborate criteria (such as allowing for discounts during certain times of the day, etc)

2.) Then the game will need to check the cooldown, this could be before or after step one. This can be done with the command cooldown option but I personally almost never user that because a lot of my command cooldowns are per person. So say you want anyone to use the !lottery command but the same person can't use it twice within 30 minutes, you would capture the timestamp of the person saving it to a file with their name in a folder called Cooldowns and then check whether or not the amount of time has passed.

3.) Next you need to roll a random number for the user between 1 and 1000.

4.) Next you will need to check the random number against your odds/criteria which you have already laid out. You can do this through various if/then commands checking whether the number is greater than X and if so, check if it is less than Y, this is reward #1. If neither of those criteria are met, you can check if it is greater than Z and less than M, etc. DeepBot really doesn't have a nice clean way of doing this so I made an API that all are free to use.

@if@[@customapi@[http://api.thatgirlslays.com?between=@target@~MIN~MAX]||false||The number is not between||the number is between]

Then you stack that API call for how every many ranges you need to check. Eventually the number will be a match

5.) When the number is a match you need to call the appropriate command. The command can read out a message to the user and do other things you have specified like upgrade their VIP level. You can also have this command write to a text file  in the Unfulfilled folder which  you can monitor and do with what you wish if there are actions you need to take in order to fullfill their prize.


Those are basically the logical steps for how to make the game work.
