Yes, I would. I would want to make sure that I have that certain % of the share of the profit. Let's say you decided all hosts would be first payed by the income, and then the final income is like 1000 $. I would want to be sure I get at least 10 % or something, depending on the team size and work I do.   You say that now, when the PROFIT goes big, it is a whole different matter. As a team leader you could say, i take the profit myself. Sorry i cant go in to details but im school on a lesson :p

The post was actually quite interesting, but you lost me and probably tons of others by ending with this c-rap. Share / gain of the partners: No numbers yet, if the project kicks-off, everything will be discussed at that stage...or earlier. I'm quite sure everyone wants to be able to KNOW what PROFIT the gain by doing this, but the game itself obviously.

Yes, that would make sense to integrate. It's something similiar like Drupal, right? However, I believe it would be a efficient and easy approach and if well integrated could be a really great feature.

What kind of features would a TCG engine hold?

Make sure you have the GD library enabled on your host. However If I were you I would just change and use reCaptcha instead.

The picture (?) of the diagram doesn't display.

First of all, your example class sucks. Don't reinvent the wheel, there is an already great DateTime class, http://se2.php.net/manual/en/class.datetime.php   You should consider using object-oriented code when you need it, not because you want to use it.

I'm sure there was more than one game produced from ezRPG! ;)

Bloody hell! Great job, dude! As I've been saying to myself all the time, this engine has loads of potential due to it's modularsystem, it's functionality is great and you just proved it. Keep up the work.

The first steps is to make sure the engine is secure from the point where we take off, I believe like Spudinski probably agreed with me that security measures is all of importance, there is no reason taking further steps, if the engine is inreliable. :)   Great job Spudinski!

It may be a thread, there may not, I am on my way to the kitchen, I don't have time to bother, so right on topic. What's your nightly eating? What you currently sit and enjoy in the evening/night? I am about to get le cookies.

I believe this is ezRPG?

I'm not really sure where to place the thread, but here goes. I am planning to soon create a game map (A map structured by 32x32 tiles, x, y coordinates) But I'm not really sure where to begin. It's going to be a dynamic map with User content, so I'll save data in a database. I also need to make it some what of interactive (We would not want to update the whole page to move one tile (coordinate forward)), So I guess JavaScript/Ajax is the way to go here. But further than that I'm not. Anyone who have any experience around building some sort of alike map who dare to share your experience? Suggestions, tips...

I used to run a RuneScape Private server once. It was fun. I had too deal with Spam Bots - But I had no idea how to program Java so I was kinda lost. Good times. So, What service did you use, did you say?

Reasons for adding a new template engine?

It should be locked with one or two alternative solutions as people may reference to this topic to learn about the case.

Yes, anyone who would like to contribute, be sure to make so! We want to develop and improve the ezRPG due to the potential it actually has! If you're not sure in what way you can help out, just ask!

The only correct way to secure sql statements in php is to use prepared statements in my opinion. It's the best approach.

Good job... Looking forward to up coming updates, hopefully with some more needed features :) When you done updating, I'll take the core and rewrite it to suit my needs.

You could Force the user to change password , tell its an essential update I believe there is no big, so it should be ok to update. Google Acl.

Agreed, set a variable in the Hook and then put a check on the different modules it would be unaccountable for a "Dead" user. You could add a function like IsDead() RedirectIfDead() or something similar and send the user to a certain destination.

- You could update Smarty to it's latest version - Proper password hashing (use a library such as http://www.openwall.com/phpass/) - User roles (groups) guest, standard user, member, moderator, etcetera instead of the "rank" 1-10. Finally, when can we expect this update?

I am going to begin some with the code today, I'd start off setting up the core files and libraries such as config, init, index, autoloaders, smarty, error handling, etcetera.

True :) I'd better off looking If I can find anything. Thanks for the headsup     I intended to write another answer to you, but I forgot about it, I'd just thank you for your post and suggestion, I'd think over it!

  That's why I am thinking off using PDO and just build a wrapper upon it, as PDO already has many drivers available, I would just let the user specify which dsn (driver) he would like to work with, the query and statements are still the same in PDO, then I would basically lay on the functionality I need to make everything easier, such as making the insert() query pass in the data array and then it's done.
