5 min cron alternative

[Kasabian]

hey,

i haven't posted in a while but I've started playing around with pog1 5 min cron alternative:

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `cron` WHERE `name` = '5min'");
$result = mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC);
$howLongAgo = time() - $result['last'];
if($howLongAgo > (300)) {

$n = floor($howLongAgo / 300);  // 300 = 5 mins
$user = mysql_fetch_array($db->query(sprintf("SELECT * FROM users WHERE userid = '%u'",abs(@intval($_SESSION['userid'])) )),MYSQL_ASSOC);
$v = ($set['validate_on']) ? "verified = '0', " : FALSE;
$e = ($user['donatordays'] > 0) ? 10 : 5;
$energy = ($user['energy']) + ($e * $n);
$energy = (int) ($energy > $user['maxenergy']) ? $user['maxenergy'] : $energy;
$brave = ($user['brave']) + (2 * $n);
$brave = (int) ($brave > $user['brave']) ? $user['maxbrave'] : $brave;
$hp = $user['hp'] + (($user['maxhp'] * .25) * $n);
$hp = (int) ($hp > $user['maxhp']) ? $user['maxhp'] : $newhp;
$will = ($user['will']) + (5 * $n);
$will = (int) ($will > $user['will']) ? $user['maxwill'] : $will;
$string = sprintf("UPDATE `users` SET %s `energy` = '%u', `brave` = '%u', `hp` = '%u', `will` = '%u'",
$v,$energy,$brave,$hp,$will);

mysql_query($string) or die('CRON ERROR');
$t = time();
$result = $db->query("UPDATE `cron` SET `last` = '%u' WHERE `name` = '5min'",$t);
$l = $t - (floor($t / 300) * 300);
if ($l > 0) {

	$newUpdate =  time() - $l;
	$result = $db->query(sprintf("UPDATE `cron` SET `last` = '%u' WHERE `name` = '5min'",$newUpdate));

}

}

 

but I'm having problems its refilling the energy, its refilling at about 41.5% without donator packs. this is a big problem for me as i would like it to be the normal 8% and 17% on donator.

can anyone help sort it out. The will and brave are also running super fast as well, I have checked the times and its running at the correct speed.

i just wanna put a key point right out there about me:

• Yes i am retarded at maths... thank you for point that out

 

any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks

Re: 5 min cron alternative

Correct me if i'm wrong...

user has 20% energy

20% (let's say 100 out of a max of 500 energy)

$energy = ($user['energy']) + ($e * $n);

$e = 301 / 300 = 1

$n = 10

$energy = 100 + 1 * 10

$energy = 110 = 22%

best would be

$e = ($user['donatordays'] > 0) ? 5 : 10;

$energy = $user['energy'] + ($user['maxenergy']/$e)

This way you are giving 20% energy to donators and 10% to non donators.

From here, you can play around with the values

Re: 5 min cron alternative

with the brave just try and break it down like lithium did with the energy..
