As for speed that one is much easier... simple ranged roll.

For the tossup questions it goes like this...

Fast: 1 to 5 seconds (actually 100 to 500 / 100)

Medium: 3 to 7 secs

Slow: 5 to 10 secs

Thanks... I used a php middle tier with a mysql back end. The client contains the ids for the computer players, but the logic is server side (as are the questions, etc). Construct 2 has worked very well for creating the front end. Although I am still not at the level of using its more advanced features... I am working towards that. I think writing the questions took longer than the programming LOL ;-)

As for the logic itself... the players all have 3 possible values for both speed and knowledge.

Knowledge Example:

Basically once the php script retrieves their knowledge value it then scans each possible answer... just like a real player would. Each time it looks at an answer it "rolls" to see if it can tell if its right or wrong. If it fails to roll low enough then it will randomly decide to click it or not (50/50 at that point). If not then it moves to the next answer and so on. There are 3 levels of knowledge.. smart is 80/100, medium is 50/50, and dumb is 20/100. If it does roll low enough then if the answer is correct it will select it, or pass it if it is wrong. It repeats this until it locks onto 5 answers.

Thanks to feed back I received I was able fixed a few glitches. I am not sure if this forum was the source of the emails I got, but thank you regardless! The Trivial Boot is now fully playable.

BTW - it works best with chrome.

Hello Everyone.

I have a new game that I created for a school project. It is called "The Trivial Boot". Basically it is structured somewhat like a game show. You face off with 4 contenders in an attempt to be the last player standing. If you are the last standing then you get to play the bonus round for a chance to win up to 1,000,000 points.

WARNING: this is not easy trivia!

Let me know what you think.

Thanks! <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Oh and also, thank you for color coding strings, etc... helps with very long AJAX calls.

I normally don't post stuff like this... but I feel I need to take a moment and say thank you for including auto-completes when having to type in variable names. No more having to hunt down what I named something. Thank you! You have made my life easier! <img src="smileys/smiley17.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

This just gave me some inspiration for creating things other than games with construct2. Thank you for sharing!

Nice job! <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Hello everyone -

I have been working on several mini-challenges that will be used in a much larger game. (all done in Construct 2 with a little bit of server side).

I have another one done. This one is a slot machine type of game (mixed with a little poker).

Again I was hoping to have a few plays to get an average score. I could then use that data to set the "Pass/Fail" marks for this mini-challenge.

It takes about 5 minutes to play (at the most).

It will save your score automatically.
