All-in-one Lotto Macro

With me back playing on ECC, I thought I'd properly share a lottery macro I had made over a year ago, with me finally managing to fix the few bugs it had.

This macro provides you with the pot amount, time till draw, last pot winner and last pot amount.

Spoiler: How it Looks

1. Navigate to the text editor and create 3 files

Spoiler

The first to create is "lotto.txt", it is important that you keep the exact names:

Code:

$${
IFMATCHES(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] Congratulations go to (.*) for winning \$[0-9]+ with [0-9]+ tickets\.);
    MATCH(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] Congratulations go to (.*) for winning \$([0-9]+) with ([0-9]+) tickets\.,{@&winner,@#lotwin,#wintix});
    @#pot=0;
    STOP(timer);
    @#seccount=0;
    @#mincount=15;
    EXEC(lottotimer.txt,timer);
    SETLABEL(lot,Last Winner: &5%@&winner%\n&fLast Pot: &2$%@#lotwin%\n&fPot: &a$%@#pot%\n&fDraw in: &b%@#mincount%min &b%@#seccount%sec,lot);
ENDIF;
IFMATCHES(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] Draw in: [0-9]+ seconds?);
    MATCH(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] Draw in: ([0-9]+) seconds?,{#countsec});
    @#mincount=0;
    @#seccount=#countsec;
ENDIF;
IFMATCHES(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] Draw in: [0-9]+ minutes?\, and [0-9]+ seconds?);
    MATCH(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] Draw in: ([0-9]+) minutes?\, and ([0-9]+) seconds?,{#countmin,#countsec});
    @#mincount=#countmin;
    @#seccount=#countsec;
ENDIF;
IFMATCHES(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] (.*) just bought [0-9]+ tickets?);
    MATCH(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] (.*) just bought ([0-9]+) tickets?,{&username,#tickets});
    #amount=#tickets*850;
    @#pot=@#pot+#amount;
    SETLABEL(lot,Last Winner: &5%@&winner%\n&fLast Pot: &2$%@#lotwin%\n&fPot: &a$%@#pot%\n&fDraw in: &b%@#mincount%min &b%@#seccount%sec,lot);
ENDIF;
IFMATCHES(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] (.*) just bought [0-9]+ tickets?! Draw in [0-9]+m [0-9]+s);
    MATCH(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] (.*) just bought [0-9]+ tickets?! Draw in ([0-9]+)m ([0-9]+)s,{&username,#countmin,#countsec});
    @#mincount=#countmin;
    @#seccount=#countsec;
    SETLABEL(lot,Last Winner: &5%@&winner%\n&fLast Pot: &2$%@#lotwin%\n&fPot: &a$%@#pot%\n&fDraw in: &b%@#mincount%min &b%@#seccount%sec,lot);
ENDIF;
IFMATCHES(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] (.*) just bought [0-9]+ tickets?! Draw in [0-9]+s);
    MATCH(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] (.*) just bought ([0-9]+) tickets?! Draw in ([0-9]+)s,{&username,#tickets,#countsec});
    @#mincount=0;
    @#seccount=#countsec;
    SETLABEL(lot,Last Winner: &5%@&winner%\n&fLast Pot: &2$%@#lotwin%\n&fPot: &a$%@#pot%\n&fDraw in: &b%@#mincount%min &b%@#seccount%sec,lot);
ENDIF;
IFMATCHES(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] Last winner: (.*) \$[0-9]+);
    MATCH(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] Last winner: (.*) \$([0-9]+),{@&winner,@#lotwin});
    SETLABEL(lotpot,Last Winner: &5%@&winner%\n&fLast Pot: &2$%@#lotwin%\n&fPot: &a$%@#pot%\n&fTime: %@#minutes%m %@#seconds%s ,lotpot);
ENDIF;
IFMATCHES(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] There is currently \$[0-9]+ in the pot\.);
    MATCH(%&chat%,^\[LOTTERY\] There is currently \$([0-9]+) in the pot\.,{@#pot});
    SETLABEL(lot,Last Winner: &5%@&winner%\n&fLast Pot: &2$%@#lotwin%\n&fPot: &a$%@#pot%\n&fDraw in: &b%@#mincount%min &b%@#seccount%sec,lot);
ENDIF;
}$$

Next create "lottoloop.txt":

Code:

$${
DO;
    SETLABEL(lot,Last Winner: &5%@&winner%\n&fLast Pot: &2$%@#lotwin%\n&fPot: &a$%@#pot%\n&fDraw in: &b%@#mincount%min &b%@#seccount%sec,lot);
    WAIT(10t)
LOOP;
}$$

And finally "lottotimer.txt":

Code:

$${
DO;
    WAIT(19t);
    IF(%@#seccount%=0);
        INC(@#seccount,60);
        DEC(@#mincount);
    ENDIF;
    DEC(@#seccount);
    IF(%@#mincount%=0);
        IF(%@#seccount%=0);
            STOP(timer);
        ENDIF;
    ENDIF;
    SETLABEL(lot,Last Winner: &5%@&winner%\n&fLast Pot: &2$%@#lotwin%\n&fPot: &a$%@#pot%\n&fDraw in: &b%@#mincount%min &b%@#seccount%sec,lot);
LOOP;
}$$

2. Navigate to the GUI editor for the ingame screen

Spoiler

3. Create a label with "lot" in the Control Name and Binding

Spoiler

4. Navigate to the "onChat" event and paste "$$<lotto.txt>" into the box at the bottom using a "|" to separate it from anything else you have

Spoiler

5. Navigate to the "onJoinGame" event and paste the code below into the box at the bottom, again using "|" to separate it from any code you have already

Code:

$${ECHO(/lot);EXEC(lottotimer.txt,timer);EXEC(lottoloop.txt,lottoloop)}$$

Spoiler

6. Disconnect and rejoin the server and you should be good to go!


I do plan on adding features such as it telling you how many tickets you have in the pot and your percentage chance at winning. If you have any issues or suggestions please post below!

Thanks to @Videowiz92 for his help all that time ago

 

Will edit the lottotimer.txt thing, thanks. In terms of the bugs you are experiencing I can't re-create them, so I'm not sure if you are doing something wrong?

 

Okay I'll look into it when I find the time
