Gender Questions

[draugluin]

How can I make an item that switches the adoptable's gender?

its a very interesting question. I've tried a item, which makes an adoptable male, but

PHP Code:

function items_male($item, $adopt){
  // Update the gender info.
  $GLOBALS['adopts']->update("owned_adoptables", array("gender" => 'm'), "aid ='{$adopt->aid}' and owner='{$item->owner}'");    
  $note = "Its male now<br>";
  //Update item quantity...
  $delitem = $item->removeitem(1, $item->owner);  
  return $note;
} 


does'nt work. I've copied it from "breed1" which changes the "lastbred to 0" modified to "gender = m"

where is the fault???

I'll look into it a little when I get to school, have to leave in 20 minutes and need to get Math done I was suppose to last night ^^'

Unless of course you figure it out first :)

Edit: I have been messing with the code a bit and I can't seem to get it to work :( Sorry

okay, I fixed it

this is the code for useful gender-swap

PHP Code:

function items_alts1($item, $adopt){
  // First lets check if alternative image exists for an adoptable at this level.
  $lev = $GLOBALS['adopts']->select("levels", array(), "adoptiename='{$adopt->type}' and thisislevel ='{$adopt->currentlevel}'")->fetchObject();
  if($lev->alternateimage == ""){
      // The alternate image does not exist, cannot convert adoptable into its alternate form
    $note = "It appears that your adoptable could not swap its gender...<br>";
  }
  else{
      // The alternate image exists, conversion between primary and alternate image is possible.
    switch($adopt->usealternates){
      case "yes": 
        $GLOBALS['adopts']->update("owned_adoptables", array("usealternates" => 'no', "gender" => 'm'), "aid ='{$adopt->aid}' and owner='{$item->owner}'");        
        $note = "{$adopt->name} is male.";
        break;
      default:
        $GLOBALS['adopts']->update("owned_adoptables", array("usealternates" => 'yes', "gender" => 'f'), "aid ='{$adopt->aid}' and owner='{$item->owner}'");       
        $note = "  {$adopt->name} is female";
    }
      //Update item quantity...
      $delitem = $item->removeitem(1, $item->owner);    
  }
  return $note;    
} 


You only have to modify your text and have alternate images female.
I've the primary image for male and alternates for female.

much fun - I will have fun too - or better : my user

That actually gives me an idea (more work for the artist I find to do art for the site also XD)
basically male and female versions of my adoptables, and certain adoptables that have normal alt images I can just add a check in that code so that if used on certain characters it doesn't allow you to gender swap xD. (for characters that must be female, and/or characters that have alternate forms, like one of my adoptables will have an alt form of a chimera. )

Anyways, thanks for the code! I probably never would have been able to write that xD (well I probably would if I knew more PHP xD)
