help with hourly payday - mister_ic3 - 17.11.2009

cool. To do that, you need to have some sort of...uhm...clock...well...A function could do...

If you're using levels then you could do some sort of a new random..
Like level 1 gets a random between 200 and 800.
Level 2 gets a random between 800 and 2000.

But don't ask me how to do it I can't, but I know that this could be the way to do it.

If you want to do it like every hour, you can use "gettime", too. I guess that would be MUCH easier than creating a timer.

(btw: Do you know how to use "gettime"? It is made like this: gettime(hour, minute, second). hour, minute and second should be variables, where
the time gets stored.)

Just check, for example "hour" if its 0, 1, 2, .... etc... and it should work

Cheers.

i do use levels and my payday is for level one you get $500 then at level two you get $1000 IE:-

basepay is $500

so it's basepay multiplyed by player level

level 0 $0.00 an hour
level 1 $500.00 an hour
level 2 $1000.00 an hour
and so on

it was done this way to encorage players to get more EXP and to keep the game moving so to speak
