World at War

World at War Revision History

This is a raw dump of the most recent revision log in the WaW main program itself. It's interesting as a history of sorts on the options and features as the program grew over the years.

/*
** This is the main World at War code. First thing to check is if browser is hitting us for the first time.
** If it is, there should be no variables set. The $session variable is the first that should be set
** so check it here to see if it's set. If not, consider this a first-time hit. Ask them for username
** and password or link to create a new username and password.
**
** Version 1.0 Final basic working version with Unlimited Fortifications option.
** Version 1.1 Chatter Implemented - requires change to logs table in database. Addition of Chatter field.
** Version 1.2 ToTheDeath button added. Reduced log output. Commented out many logs.
** Version 1.3 Bank Implemented - requires addition of Bank field in games table.
** Version 1.4 Chatter bug fixed involving apostrophe's sneaking in.
** Version 1.41 Still chasing chatter bug and bank not working.
** Version 1.5 Chatter fixed, bank fixed.
** Version 1.6 Different color for out of game players. Modded players dbase with gamesplayed gameswon and implemented.
** Version 1.7 Implemented Banners, added player name in appropriate color to logs (hopefully). Buttonized global map.
** allowed non-players to view game.
** Version 1.8 Removed Banners and recoded database connection now that it's running at Prowler-Pro.com
** Version 1.9 Adding F.I.R.E. based ranking system to Players table. Also removed Game Name from game list & reordered
** Version 1.10 Added debug code. Looks like DEC2HEX function still is screwing up rarely. Debug code writes to log file
** if DEC2HEX returns less than 2 characters. Also changed "Maximum Players" to "Number of Players"
** Version 1.11 Split deploy armies into 6 separate fields p1eploy, p2deploy etc. Also modified daily check when new user
** is created to JUST BEFORE player database is updated. Player list ordered by Ranking but no display of 1200
** Version 1.12 Added DAILY option to force 1 turn per day. Daily maintenance STILL is sometimes running twice! To fix it
** once-and-for-all I will update the Player 1 record every time Daily maintenance runs so at LEAST that record
** shows the new date and it should not be possible for it to run more than once per day.
** Version 1.13 Added IRCx Chat feature.
** Version 1.14 Adding LOCKs to games. Disabled if UNLOCKED feature is on. Added timestamp to new Chatter. Color coded game state.
** Displays game options on line 18 now.
** Version 1.15 Daily maint. check now ran with EVERY call. New table DAILY with 1 entry is checked against current date. If
** day is different, daily table is updated and runs routine.
** Version 1.16 Fixed maint bug. BAD maint bug. Implemented Advanced option. Added counter to Ranking list.
** Version 1.17 Added javascript help links on game options.
** Version 1.18 Added $MAAC variable and checkbox. (Move All Armies on Conquest) If checked, no move after attack needed.
** Version 1.19 I now reseed random number generator with a call to srand((time())) just before EVERY call to rand()
** Version 1.20 Reuse player slots with name = EMPTY. Also OVER games show winner name in purple.
** Version 1.21 New players cannot create new games until they have won at least 1 game.
** Version 1.22 New players CAN create up to 5 new games - counting only Created games.
** Version 1.23 No longer use array of arrays in daily routine to hold gameinfo. Now use mysql_data_seek to pull gameinfo.
** Version 1.24 Removing gameinfo[] array apparently didn't help. Revising daily maintenance again.
** Version 1.25 Created AANR option. Removed daily maint. call as cron will run it now hopefully via manualdaily.php3
** Version 1.26 $session variable is now 8 random characters PLUS playernum. $presession is just the 8 characters. Should prevent
** duplicate sessionIDs from causing confusion.
** Version 1.27 Bonus armies shown on maps for continents.
** Version 1.28 Improved "Viewing" Status to allow viewing logs and chatter. Added experimental HTML chat.
** Version 1.29 Removed Javachat and incorporated my own HTML chat. Fixed Netscape dropdown box problem.
** Version 1.30 Alphabetized drop-down lists. Big task!
** Version 1.31 Removed ALL viewing mode changes except if link is hit. Redisplay mode only changes the mode.
** Version 1.32 Yanked a line that was still calling IRCx javascript and gumming up the works!
** Version 1.33 Fixed bug caused by dummy player 0 when that dummy player is eliminated from the game. Logout goes to PP Web Portal.
** Version 1.34 Removed EMPTY players from Ranking lists.
** Version 1.35 Display mode was not being set for player due to erroneous if playernumingame < 6 instead of < 7
** Version 1.36 Added Time Delay option for new games. Also when joining a new game, timestamp entered is 24 hours less than real time
** so as to avoid not being able to play right away due to the Time Delay option.
** Version 1.37 Created warconfig.txt configuration file so links, database name, password etc. is no longer hard-coded in the program.
** also edited chat.php3, chatdump.php3 and chatenter.php3 to use it too.
** Version 1.38 War Fog Variant finally added!
** Version 1.39 WAWFAQ link added.
** Version 1.40 Added turnstaken field to games table, IncrementTurn function. This will allow tracking of how many turns are actively taken
** by each player, so as to disallow points being awarded from deadbeat players.
** Version 1.41 Bug fix. Allowed moving all armies leaving 0 armies behind after attack! (How did THAT happen?!)
** Version 1.42 Fixed turnstaken subroutine. (a - b * c is not the same as (a - b) * c dummy!)
** Version 1.43 War Fogged the log for bonus armies - otherwise players can see when a player owns all of a continent.
** Version 1.44 Dice logged to diceroll.txt. Implemented EndTurnCheck to prevent delay tactic.
** Version 1.45 No points for deadbeats mod added.
** Version 1.46 Print bug in deadbeats mod fixed. If Create New Game checkbox is not checked, error msg suggests it.

** (again! Lost a rev somewhere!)
** Version 1.53 Implemented Paranoia! option
** Version 1.54 VERY slight mod to the display of game options. Added one
. Also only displays Target after state is Running.
** Version 1.55 Added numbanks field to games table and supporting routines to incr. from 0 to 9 max for limited banking option later.
** Also stopped diceroll.txt again.
** Version 1.56 Added log entry anytime NextTurn is invoked saying Next Round initializing...
** Version 1.57 Implemented Limited Banking option for 2 or 5 days. Added comment field to players database.
** Version 1.58 Added links to dispplayer.php3 in Rankings, MRankings.
** Version 1.59 Database Change! Added Varchar 42 field cards for use in tracking bonus cards.
** Version 1.60 Added timestamp update when status changes from R to D to prevent possible forced logout condition.
** Version 1.61 More database change. Added varchar 6 field for card flag indicating player should get a card at end of turn.
** Version 1.62 Added logging of ranking score changes for normal and cutthroat games.
** Version 2.0 Bonus Cards FINALLY added. Probably will be a lot of tweaking but initial testing looks good.
** Version 2.02 (somehow skipped 2.01! Hope it wasn't important!) Bonus card fix in givecard function. Also modified blacklist IP
** so it can blacklist a range of IPs (any match will blacklist). Fixed Type1 cards so bonus can go higher than 12.
** Version 2.03 Modified maxbank to accomodate cards by adding a parameter to Banking function to tell if it should increment numbanks (1)
** or not (0). Not all additions to the bank indicate a new turn anymore.
** Version 2.04 minor correction of card colors in a couple routines. $card%3 should be 1-green 2-red 0-blue
** Version 2.05 Added icons to Playerlist, MPlayerlist and map display. >2000 icon1, >1500 icon2, >1200 icon3 etc... Also only link to
** dispplayer.php3 if player has a jpg graphic file on record.
** Version 2.05 Increased logging of card-related activity to find why $cards getting corrupted.
** Version 2.06 Revised Banking routine again. Now Card bonus should not be affected by Limited Banking.
** Version 2.07 Removed p1_lastlogon update if state is R. Caused a problem with card players hitting View Log and getting
** TurnDelayed because of the update. Seems to not hurt anything else.
** Version 2.08 Fixed cards corruption bug! Hurrah!
** Version 2.09 Added ALT string to icon graphics. New games check when they start to make sure no one player owns an entire continent.
** Version 2.10 Added FORFEIT option. Click your name on top line of map display to forfeit.
** Version 2.11 Revamped font color showing players state in games. Black indicates out of game now.
** Version 2.12 Had an error in New User function that prevented creating new entries in Players table. (Thanks james!)
** Version 2.13 Massive efficiency changes. May be bugs related. Calling database queries fewer and less redundant. If there are no
** major bugs, then another version should be done removing all commented-out queries.
** Version 2.14 Deleted commented-out code from the 2.13 upgrade. Removed some logging of cards since other players should not be able
** to know which cards a player has, and the card bugs seem to be fixed.
** Version 2.15 Added Cards Type 4 (Random bonus between 3 and 10 armies)
** Version 2.16 Minor bug fix. Forced turn over code was not incrementing turncount resulting in inaccurate deadbeat designation.
** Also some formatting changes. Moved "End Phase" button to the far right. Rearranged bottom links.
** Version 2.17 Brought the End Phase button back a bit.

** Version 4.46 05/16/02 - Currently you can only forfeit if your status is R or V (turn is ready or over, not mid-turn). State that in error.

** Also added a log entry when a sequential player's turn is skipped due to next player in after 24 hrs.
** Version 4.48 06/15/02 - Fixed chatenter.php3 so you can't spoof a message. Also added to text after taking a country to display

** Version 4.91 03/22/03 - When a deadbeat in a seq game has had > 24 hours and the next player joins, his turn
** is skipped as it should be. However, it was NOT incrementing ADE counter. Now it does.
** Version 4.92 04/17/03 - Allowed re-ordering of Monthly ranking screen via links on header.
** Version 4.93 06/26/03 - Implemented a Search for Player function in List All Games routine
** Version 4.94 10/10/03 - Revised WOT to WOTII map. Removed option to pick old WOT map.
** Version 4.95 01/14/03 - Due to some bug with BLANDOOMs account (possibly others) I'm now allowing points
** to be given to deadbeat winning players because he keeps getting marked as a deadbeat
** 0 in TurnTaken even when he obviously HAS taken turns. This is a workaround, the real
** fix is to find out why his turnstaken is 0 when it shouldnt be.
** Version 4.96 01/14/03 - Name and Colorized more log entries.
** Version 5.00 01/14/03 - Created SCORELESS option. No points awarded or subtracted. I hope.

** Bug was introduced in V 4.96 update.
** Version 5.04 03/03/04 - Fix of the Fix. Dummy Player 0 fix above was checked AFTER war fog check, thereby revealing
** info it shouldnt have revealed. Relocated to just above war fog check.

** Version 5.06 03/08/04 - Turned off dice logging again.
** Version 5.07 03/15/04 - Revised ranking icons to include sergent and upped requirements.
** Version 5.08 03/22/04 - TotalGameCount variable added to count games player is involved in - at bottom of game list.
** Version 5.09 04/27/04 - Player BLANDOOM (see 4.95 comments) was not getting his turns incremented by IncrementTurn
** function. That function takes only the gameinfo structure and playernumingame variables so
** his name and account number do not play any role - function looks good. So likely the function
** simply wasnt being called. In most games, the function is called when the fortify phase is ended
** so maybe he was never ending his fortification? Revised location of call to IncrementTurn to
** increment when Deploy Armies form is sent. Much more likely to always be hit at beginning of
** turn rather than end of turn. This may be the fix.
** Version 6.00 05/11/04 - This deserves a whole new version number. Finally found a method to use CSS to fix the longstanding
** map/font size discrepancy issue. Now a STYLE for the td selector is used to set the font size and
** line height in the header. Tested and seems to work.
** Version 6.01 05/11/04 - Apparently War Fog games still were revealing owner of a country when cards turned in and extra 2
** bonus was added to those countries. Fogged now.
** Version 6.02 05/13/04 - Using div now to set font properties. font-size:16px works in Windows, not Linux or Macs. Now
** checking HTTP_USER_AGENT. If "Mac" or "Linux" found, use font-size:15px instead of 16px. Displays
** HTTP_USER_AGENT at the bottom of every page so more adjustments can be made as needed.
** Version 6.10 06/09/04 - Added optional Capital Bonus of 1 for owning any Capital country (Currently only Venetia uses
** Capital countries.) Defined with "cap" in color field of country (unused previously)
** Version 6.11 06/14/04 - Added Welcome Text feature. When you create a game, you may create a Welcome Text message to say
** anything you want to potential players before they join your game.
** Version 6.12 06/22/04 - Cheat was allowing capital bonus multiple times. Temporarily disabled till fix can be implemented.

** Version 6.42 12/07/04 - Bug when eliminating Dummy 0 player from game did not allow fortification. Should be fixed now.
** Version 6.43 12/14/04 - Added AIRLIFT option. Allows fortifying from any owned country to any other regardless of borders.
** Version 6.44 12/16/04 - Reduced size of $gameoptions on map. Changed "Unlimited Fortifications" to "UF" in game creation area.
** Version 6.45 12/20/04 - Premium users now get warning if < 5 days till premium expiration and freebies now can only choose
** Blue Dragon to send private message to.
** Version 6.46 12/21/04 - Using newb.bmp instead of beanie now to represent players at 1200 exactly.
** Version 6.50 01/06/05 - First stab at playbyplay feature where players can post their thoughts at each point and the posts
** will be viewable after the game ends. May add autopost info at some point too. In fact, it may
** eventually replace the logs completely. All we do in here is add a link to playbyplay.php with the
** appropriate parameters.
