LF "Guild lotto" addon

Gramexer · 06-23-11, 11:37 AM

Hi!

I'm running some "guild lottos" (I give gold away). The only thing that players have to do is whisper 1 number between 1-120. Then I will update that number to his/her officeer note.

Idk but is there any addon that can automate that updating process, like if someone whispers me "!lotto 22" it will update his number.

You can make this addon yourself if you like, first do this to create the addon itself:
1. Go to Wow\Interface\Addons
2. Create your addon folder for example "Lotto"
3. Inside this folder create "Lotto.toc" and put this in it:

Code:

## Interface: 401000
## Title: Lotto
## Notes: :3
thenameofthefile.lua

4. Create the file "thenameofthefile.lua" and in it put this:

Code:

local function InGuild(name)
  for i = 1, GetNumGuildMembers() do
    if name == GetGuildRosterInfo(i) then return i end
  end
end
local f = CreateFrame("Frame")
f:RegisterEvent("CHAT_MSG_WHISPER")
f:SetScript("OnEvent", function(f, event, msg, sender)
  if IsInGuild() and CanEditOfficerNote() then
    if event == "CHAT_MSG_WHISPER" then
      local index = InGuild(sender)
      if index then
        local prefix, value = (" "):split(msg, 2)
        if prefix and value and prefix:lower():match("%!lotto") and value:match("^%d$") then
          GuildRosterSetOfficerNote(value, index)
        end
      end
    end
  end
end)

Save these two files and the addon should show on the addon list, when you login those that whisper "!lotto [any number]" will have their note updated.

May or may not be what you want, but they finally allowed this to be uploaded to Curse.

Well, I was gonna give you the link but Curse is performing emergency maintenance. Anyways, check over there for the Guild Lottery addon. I snatched that sucker up the first day it was uploaded lol.

Thanks and sorry for answering lately.

* It wont work other numbers than 1-9
* It will save that number to random player, not to that who sent message, sometime whole guild gets same number when I whisper to myself
