Forums Scripts & Popups Twitch Bot, Points system with a mulitplier

I have a bot set to award 1 point for every hour someone is in my Twitch channel. What I would like to add is for specific people to earn 1.5 tickets every hour, but the code isn't responding correctly. Here's what I added:

on !*:join:#:{
$+(.timerpoints.,#,.,$nick) 0 3600 add.pts $+(#,.,$nick)
add.pts $+(#,.,$nick)
if ($readini(P.ini,$nick) $calc($readini(Points.ini,%topic,Points) + $.5)

I'd like the bot to read if a name is on the ini file P.ini but it doesn't seem to read from there. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I can add the entire point script if necessary.

Please provide us the hole point system code because the problem is not from this code that you have posted.

alias -l addPoints {
if ($1 !isnum) { echo 2 -st $1 is not a number. It needs to be a number. | halt }
var %topic $+($chan,.,$nick)
var %points $calc($readini(Points.ini,%topic,Points) + $1)
writeini -n Points.ini %topic Points %points
return %points
}

alias -l lookUpPoints {
var %topic $+($chan,.,$nick)
var %points $readini(Points.ini,%topic,Points)
return %points
}
alias doaddpoints {
if ($3 !isnum) { echo 2 -st $3 is not a number. It needs to be a number. | halt }
var %topic $+($1,.,$2)
var %points $calc($readini(Points.ini,%topic,Points) + $3)
writeini -n Points.ini %topic Points %points
echo -a Added points for %topic
}

alias dorempoints {
var %topic $+($1,.,$2)
remini -n Points.ini %topic Points
echo -a Removed points for %topic
}

on *:text:!tickets:#:{
if ((%floodpoints) || ($($+(%,floodpoints.,$nick),2))) { return }
set -u10 %floodpoints On
set -u30 %floodpoints. $+ $nick On
msg # $nick has $readini(Points.ini,$+(#,.,$nick),Points) tickets.
}

on $*:text:/!tickets (add|remove)/Si:#:{
if ($nick isop #) {
if ($0 < 3) { msg # Insufficient parameters: Use !points <add|remove> <user> [number] | return }
writeini -n Points.ini $+(#,.,$3) Points $calc($readini(Points.ini,$+(#,.,$3),Points) $iif($2 == add,+,-) $iif($4 isnum,$4,1))
{ msg $chan $3 now has $readini(Points.ini,$+(#,.,$3),Points) tickets. }
}
else { msg $chan This command is only available to moderators. }
}
on !*:join:#:{
$+(.timerpoints.,#,.,$nick) 0 3600 add.pts $+(#,.,$nick) add.pts $+(#,.,$nick)
if ($readini(P.ini,$nick) $calc($readini(Points.ini,%topic,Points) + $.5)
}
on !*:part:#:$+(.timerpoints.,#,.,$nick) off
alias -l add.pts {
writeini -n Points.ini $1 Points $calc($readini(Points.ini,$1,Points) + 1)
}

First of all - check your mIRC reads right (//echo -a $readini(p.ini,blabla).

And actually after checking your on-text event... well, your idea looks wrong - you call alias to add point and then you try to add point again (your x1.5 bonus) - why not to make a standart bonus = 1, and a special bonus = 1.5 and include it in add.pts formula? (Didnt check if add.pts looks fine)

I'm BRAND NEW to scripting, but I think I'm understanding what you mean that it should look like this:

alias -l addPoints {
if ($1 !isnum) { echo 2 -st $1 is not a number. It needs to be a number. | halt }
var %topic $+($chan,.,$nick)
var %points $calc($readini(Points.ini,%topic,Points) + $1)
var %points %calc($readini(P.ini,%topic,Points) + $.5)
writeini -n Points.ini %topic Points %points
return %points
}

$.5 looks wrong, and not having part of your .ini makes it harder to check if your huge variables work fine.

I'd like the multiplier to add half a point every hour, does irc not register values like that? And what else would you need to see? I copied my name from the "Points.ini" to the "P.ini", but it looks like this:

From Points.ini:
[#vip3r22.vip3r22]
Points=39

From P.ini:
[#vip3r22.vip3r22]

Try //echo -ag $calc(1 + 0.5)
And your $calc(1 + $.5) - $ means some identifier of function, not a number to calculate.

alias -l addPoints {
if ($1 !isnum) { echo 2 -st $1 is not a number. It needs to be a number. | halt }
var %topic $+($chan,.,$nick)
var %points $calc($readini(Points.ini,%topic,Points) + $1)
var %points $calc($readini(P.ini,%topic,Points)//echo -ag $calc(1 + 0.5)
writeini -n Points.ini %topic Points %points
return %points
}

Isn't working either

First of all - check your mIRC reads right (//echo -a $readini(p.ini,blabla).

I never had that in my original script...where does it need to be added?

I meant type //echo -ag blabla - so you can check something before modify your scripts. With double "/".
In your editbox, NOT in remotes!

Ahh sorry I've been making the changes in the scripts. Again I'm very new to using this and am trying to learn as I go along.
