I was wondering if you might say that,

Anyway, edited my post, think I found the issue, listed above!

Thank you guys for looking into this so hard for me. I really appreciate it.
I'm working what Callan has said into it now. I had removed the exits soon after posting that code so was set there. I am looking at a way to get the updates to the bottom of the page now. I'm not sure exactly what is meant there but I have an idea so I'll go with it for the moment

It will be a short while before I can test much because I am incorporating weapons/armor and whatnot into the game right now and the code won't actually even run in the state it is in. Hopefully this will go easier on me lol

Thanks again for the help. I'll update with the result once I get it in there.

It's just a few changes so I'll give an example of what I meant by changing your code a bit

Code: Select all

ok cool. That's what I did. I haven't got to test it yet cause still putting in the stuff I mentioned earlier. Thanks again for the help!

Glad it helped! Good luck!

Rastan · Post by **Rastan** » Tue Jun 15, 2010 3:40 am

It is acting better now. It was still failing to write every once in a while. I put another set of updates after it and that hasn't failed yet even if it is not what I really wanted (seems sorta dirty lol ) . I dunno if it is something specifically in my setup or what. I been having some... odd occurrences lately(all characters turning to russian all "$"'s turning to little pairs of dots etc.... maybe I did something bad unintentionally or the kid decided to play with it) so I'll just see what it does in a different environment later because I feel like it should be working now. Thanks a ton for the help you guys.

Callan S. · Post by **Callan S.** » Thu Jun 24, 2010 10:16 pm

I think it's good to try and break new design into smaller steps that can be verified as working, one at a time, rather than write a big while statement, then write multiple if statements in it, then test the whole thing at once.

it is not what I really wanted (seems sorta dirty lol )

Could you describe what you wanted - I or someone might be able to give an outline for it?

Post by **Jackolantern** » Fri Jun 25, 2010 2:20 am

You could also check out Codelobster PHP/JS IDE. You can connect WAMP right into it and get Visual Studio style line-by-line debugging. That is very rare for PHP, and worth its weight in gold when trying to get complex scripts to work.

Rastan · Post by **Rastan** » Fri Jun 25, 2010 3:05 am

I just wanted it to update correctly as it is it seems like its just skipping that whole ordeal half the time with just a regular "UPDATE X WHERE Y" statement. Doing that statement 2 times back to back has failed 0 times now . Seems kinda dumb to me but that's how its working at the moment. It has me thinking it may just be the environment I have it running in. I have a hard time believing that it just.... didn't feel like it the first time and that's working properly. lol I may further refine it but atm i have it distributing loot and exp and sending an event message and that's all clockwork.

This has me more boggled then the time Jackolantern sent me an identical line to my code and i could copy paste it in and it would work but if i took my line and pasted it back in it wouldn't lol Even one right on top of the other they were identical. I sometimes suspect that somewhere int he language translation its adding some type of hidden characters.... that's my 1 and only guess lol

I have code lobster. this leads me back to the language thing in what I'm running. It will just up and jump into german.... whenever it wants lol. I do like it but I def don't have the knowledge to use its features to my advantage yet I did once have it change all my "$" to some odd symbol not used in english on several pages. It makes me think it may have installed wrong.

Also... my reguser type code from the tutorials... to log in after it md5 encrypts It swaps letters to numbers. like apple has to be typed in 4ppl3 on login.
For this... I really don't have any ideas.

In conclusion my computer speaks "1337-speak" and it "pwns" me lol. I'll just code it all out get it running kinda like I want and adjust once it's up and running on a host that isn't my confusing mess. Surprisingly I have 0 problems with my computer doing anything else odd. Maybe I need to save all my php files wipe the newer stuff for coding like wamp and text editors and start over fresh. Other alternatives are welcome

Callan S. · Post by **Callan S.** » Fri Jun 25, 2010 5:50 am

At about that point I start putting in echo"*Swear words*"; at various points, to show me where it's actually going and also echo the values that if statements are using, just before the if statement. Also I'd consider making up a new fresh php page and just put in a while statement to a certain value and inside increment that value, then run it at that point. Because atleast then I know that works - indeed I broke down to doing that today when working with a google advert, only to find the advert code had this weird need for a line break (not <BR>) in a certain spot.

You could post the code here again if you want me to have a look again?
