would really love some programs made for a game


nothing i request cheats the game i want stuff made for, i promise. I want a few programs made for kings of chaos.

I would like a program that records all the attack and spy things people do. The program needs a few things:

1) needs to work (kind of obvious, but want to emphasize it)

2) hopefully can work on linux, mac, and windows computers

3) record the info for each person and use the most updated logs for its info

4) average the amount of gold stolen so you know how much the person has on them at times.

5) logicaly combine bits of logs to get a full list of weapons a person has.

6) figure how much gold a person has on hand (within a certain range) and how often that number occurs

7) be searchable by user name

8) be able to show specific parts like just the gold, or the weapons

9) get the users statistics

10) add user notes about the person

11) add protected names or IDs from the database

i think thats all, i might add more later. If you can make this, or make any part of it and the programs can be combined that would be awesome. I dont believe i can offer money, but if you give me the info for any adds that make you money or a website you have i can post it and get you some revenue after that.

If you have questions feel free to ask. I really would like this done and would appricaite it VERY much.

I'm not even familiar with Kings of Chaos. Have you considered developing these yourself and releasing them as open source?

I really have no idea what you are talking about. I read it twice and did not get it. The first time I read, looked like you want somebody to make a game for you. For Free? Do you have any idea how much work it is to make a game? I've been trying to create something playable for the past 5 years... I got a spaceship and two pong-like games done and you are asking for a massive RPG with database support and everything ^_^.

However, the second time I read your post, looked like advertising. That's not allowed in this site:

www.linuxquestions.org/rules.php

please, clarify what you really are after, because I'm so confused that I don't know if I should report this to a moderator or not :S

I was a bit confused about what exactly you want too. I did a search on Kings of chaos and found this site.

It sounds like a web based game so I'm not quite sure how you expect to get the info you are requesting without violating these couple of rules of the game.

Quote:
The following are prohibited:
...

# Using any process that automatically gets information from the website
# Attempting in any way to circumvent the mechanisms set up to keep Kings of Chaos fair
Perhaps you could clarify a bit. Tell us a bit more about how the game works and how you expect a program to get the info you need...

It's much more fun for everyone to play by the rules.
