Need help with a script

Every time I run the lsleditor debugger for the above code, it messes up.

Sometimes it'll reset, sometimes it won't; but it never does it on time :\

I also need to be able to set the panels up so that the username or uuid of the renters is saved somewhere. If they touch a panel and click "Like", I need it to change the panel they rented to add one more to the "ilike" variable. And finally, if the user clicks "like" on a panel, and the person who rented that panel clicks "like" on the other user's panel, I need it to send a message to both users saying the other user is a potential match.

Thanks

I got the timer working! I was stupid -_-* I just used the set timer event and it worked ^^

I still need help with the above question, though :\

Thanks

Sorry about the amount of posts. I just wanted to clarify some things:

I need the script below to somehow remember people who have rented the panels. If a man rents a panel, let's call him A, and clicks on a woman's (B) panel and selects "like", A's panel should add one to the "ilike" variable, and B's panel should add one to the "likedby" variable. If B clicks on A's panel and selects "like", I want the same to occur, but now I want a message sent to both A and B saying that a match has been made and giving them the other's username.

If possible, I would like to be able to set the script up so only a man can like a woman and a woman can only like a man. By like, I mean select the like option from the dialog.

Here's my script so far:

integer PRICE = 50; //Minimum price to rent the panel
integer CHANNEL = 7; //Channel to operate dialog boxes on
integer ilike = 0; //Number of people the renter likes
integer likedby = 0; //Number of people who like the renter
integer weeks = 0; //Number of weeks panel is being rented
list MENU_MAIN = ["OK"]; //Main dialog box
list MENU_PAID = ["Card", "Like"]; //Paid dialog box
list MENU_RENTER = ["Card", "Terminate"]; //Renter dialog box
list MENU_SURE = ["Yes", "No"]; //Sure? dialog box
string avatar_name; //Name of renter
string notecard; //Name of notecard
string texture; //Name of texture
key renter_id; //Renter UUID
key toucher; //Toucher UUID

text(string name, integer ilike2, integer likedby2)
{
	llSetText("Name: " + avatar_name + "\nI like: " + ilike + "\nLiked By: "+ likedby, <1,1,0>, 1.0); //Change floating text on panel
}

default
{
	state_entry()
	{
		llSetStatus(STATUS_BLOCK_GRAB, TRUE); //Prevent grabbing to prevent object drift
		llSetPayPrice(PRICE, [PRICE, PRICE + PRICE, PRICE + (PRICE * 2), PRICE + (PRICE * 3)]); //Set the price to rent this panel
	}
	touch_start(integer total_number)
	{
		llSay(0, "Please right click and select pay.  Each week costs 50L$");
	}
	money(key id, integer amount)
	{
		renter_id = id;
		if(amount < PRICE & amount > 20) //If less than the minimum price is paid, but more than 20L is paid
			llGiveMoney(renter_id, amount); //Then give the money back
		else if(amount % PRICE != 0 & amount % PRICE > 20) //If the amount paid is higher than the minimum price and the mod of the two is greater than 20L
		{
			llGiveMoney(renter_id, amount % PRICE); //Then give the extra money back
			weeks = amount / PRICE; //Set the number of weeks to the amount divided by price
			state pay; //and enter state pay
		}
		else if(amount % PRICE != 0 & amount % PRICE <= 20) //if the amount paid is higher than the minimum price and the mod of the two is less than or equal to 20L
		{
			weeks = amount / PRICE; //set number of weeks to amount divided by price
			state pay;//and enter state pay
		if(amount % PRICE == 0) //if the amount paid is a multiple of the minimum price
		{
			weeks = amount / PRICE; //then set number of weeks to amount divided by price

		llSetTimerEvent(604800 * weeks); //Seconds in one week * number of weeks
	}
	changed(integer mask)//Try to detect if a notecard AND texture have been added to prevent mishaps*****
	{
		if(mask & (CHANGED_ALLOWED_DROP | CHANGED_INVENTORY)) //If the panel's inventory is changed

My original code was intended to NOT use a timer hehe. The idea is that
llSetTimerEvent() suffers from time dilation which can be enough of a
difference over a week's time to be noticable but not detrimental in your
specific case. Being a professional programmer and thus very anal lol,
I avoid such squirrely aspects of timers. If, however, a timer works for
you in this situation, by all means use it hehe

In order to track who likes who and whether or not they like each other, you'll need to store this information in a list. You will quickly run out of memory I would imagine though. Most people store this type of historical data on an external webserver in a database. My advice would be maybe to store the last 5 or 10 people they've indicated they liked and not everyone, though this might not work for your application.

Now as far as males and females... players have a gender, avatars do not. You would have to ask the person using your object to select their gender with a menu and save that information in order to compare genders.

Another thing to consider about timers is this... I'm guessing this application is a "dating board" showing everyone's picture on a panel? If so you're going to have a bunch of these panels all at once. Do you really want every single panel running a timer? While it sounds easier (and it is hehe), using a timer will likely result in very high script load on the sim you put this application in. Just a thought

OK, but how do I get it working without a timer? I tried the script on the first page, but it didn't work right. Also, how can I save to an external database?

Please feel free to contact me in game via IM.

Once we solve it we can come back and post the solution here
