[Official] Suggestion/Feature Request List

[mapleblade]

changing every adoptable image fetch to getcurrentimage();

[AlexC]

Both suggestions added - though mapleblade, I would say it may be a good idea to put that one in the admin overhaul thread.

Thats a good suggestion Mapleblade. The reason why we havent done this is that we will be rebuilding the adoptables system by creating a class called adoptables, it will be highly object-oriented. This way the function getcurrentimage() may be changed significantly, or even cease to exist.

crap, i use it for my gd images mod and gd sticker mods (in progress)

Well it is not set in stone yet, even after we create the adoptables class/object the getcurrentimage() function may as well exist. This is what I call uncertainty, and the reason why I havented used any existing functions in our function files massively.

Update:
The following features for Mys v1.3.1 have been proposed and scheduled:


-- Adaptation of Database Class:
I already made this transition easier by using PDO in the security release of Mys v1.3.0, but this is just the first step towards object-oriented database usage. I hope to fully incorporate database class in Mys v1.3.1.
-- Item System Improvement:
This is suggested by Gloometh. Id like to add the 'chance to succeed/fail', 'amount limit' and 'promo code' features for v1.3.1, more item functions will be incorporated too. The item and shop classes will be implemented too, so more OOP!
-- Pound System Improvement:
Admins can decide how much it costs to pound or adopt a pounded pet, also an adoptable's previous owner will be defined and stored in database.
-- Minor Glitch Fixes:
The css issues for profile tabs and pagination will need to be fixed, the banner of main theme, and any other glitches members point out.

All these things sound awesome, will the changes require another re-install, or just an upload of changed files and some db entries? Wondering if I should wait before adding pets and starting alpha testing with a few friends.

Well an upgrader from Mys v1.3.0 to Mys v1.3.1 will be readily available then. The mega-upgrader from Mys v1.2.4 to Mys v1.3.x however, will be released together with Mys v1.3.2.

Item suggestion:

Items that can only be eaten by certain adopts

Ex: Meat could only be eaten by tigers and bears, while grass could only be eaten by cows and sheep.

[Hall of Famer]

Well this feature is already available in Mys v1.3.0. You can set the 'target' for each each item, this defines which adoptables can use this item. The default value is 'all', which means item can be used by all adoptables. Otherwise, enter the id of the adoptables that can use this item. Here are a few examples:

PHP Code:

all => All adoptables can use
1 => Only adoptables with the id 1 can use
1, 3 => Both adoptables with id 1 and 3 can use
1, 3, 4 => Adoptables with id 1, 3 and 4 can use
no => No adoptables can use
