Trivia

By glucht23 on Mar 01, 2014

Trivia game this is the first script I'm posting I couldn't find a good trivia script so I made my own it's pretty basic but I hope everyone enjoys it!

Note: if you don't use either !addquestion and !addanswer or the menu option to add the trivia questions it won't work proper.

Edit: added top10 scores, fixed timer issue

on $*:text:/^[@!.](trivia)?triviatop10$/Si:#:{
  var %x, %i = $hget(triviascores,0).item, %o
  while (%i) {
    %x = $instok(%x,$hget(triviascores,$hget(triviascores,%i).item),0,32)
    dec %i
  }
  %x = $sorttok(%x,32,nr)
  %i = 1
  while (%i <= 10) {
    if (!$hget(triviascores,%i).item) break
    %o = $addtok(%o,$ord(%i) $+ : $hfind(triviascores,$gettok(%x,%i,32),$calc($findtok(%o,$gettok(%x,%i,32),0,32) +1)).data - $bytes($gettok(%x,%i,32),b) |,32)
    inc %i
  }
  $iif($left($1,1) == @,msg #,msg $chan triviastop10) $left(%o,-1)
}

The !answer isn't working for me properly.
When I give in the good answer it doesn't respond.

Also make it work without !answer N let players directly type in the answer and add timers, highscores, and when times up or question is answered correctly let it pick another random question.

Also adding an anti-cheat mechanism would be great.

I think your other trivia script is interfering with it or something my script doesn't notice you when the question is wrong it messages the channel

I added in a highscores and a timer thing thanks for the suggestion

how would I do a anti-cheat mechanism ? can't exactly block someone from using google lol

Vegito  -  Mar 03, 2014

No i dont have any other trivia script open.
and your highscore looks ripped from the Uno game XD

Anyways, it's beter now.

By anticheat I meant so people can't record the question and answers and make an auto answer bot.

might be xD friend gave it to me a while ago and I used it for a different script so I used it on this one too c; let me know if there's anything else i can do to upgrade it
