Hey everyone, I'm a total n00b to the fold but I have a couple of things that I was hoping someone could give me a little help with.

I've just installed lotgd 0.9.7 version and everything appears to be in order, so I'm considering adding a few minor modifications before opening the floodgates and letting people play it.

The first modification I'm interested in adding is one that I found on sourceforge to increase the cost of weapons after each DK... The code is here:

// in weapons.php and armors.php

Find (two times at both .php files):

$row = db_fetch_assoc($result);

Add after:
$row[value] = $row[value]+$row[value]*$session[user][dragonkills]/2;
if (is_double($row[value])) {
$row[value] = $row[value] - 0.5;
}

To go along with this I was hoping there would be some way to allow my players to keep the gold they've collected, rather than losing it when they kill the dragon. Even if they only got to keep gold that they'd put in the bank or something would make me a very happy farmboy.

So basically, err... Yeah. What do I edit to make my players keep their gold after a DK (even just the gold in the bank), is this even possible to do without major changes, and are the any forseeable problems that anyone can see with either the weapon cost modification or allowing players to keep their gold.

Sorry for rambling, I hope it all made sense. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks for your advice.

I will heed your words.
