My guess is

mysql_query[$updatepokemon];
///should be ///
mysql_query($updatepokemon);

///I don't know if you can use [] in place of ()

///other than that you need to close your php 
?>

I just went and did both of those, and all it did was move the error to line 44...

Thanks anyways, because due to my stupidness, I did forget that close PHP thing

.

EDIT: I went through the code, found a few errors in the coding, but now that I fixed some of it I get a new error

.

Code: Select all

<?php
include 'connet.php';

$playerinfo="SELECT * from players where name='player1'";
$playerinfo2=mysql_query($playerinfo) or die ("could not get player stats!");
$playerinfo3=mysql_fetch_arra($playerinfo2);

if (isset($_GET['pokemon']))
{
$pokemon=$_GET['pokemon'];
$pokemoninfo="SELECT * from pokemon where name = '$pokemon'";
$pokemoninfo2=mysql_query($pokemoninfo) or die("could not get the pokemon you were fighting!");
$pokemoninfo3=mysql_fetch_array($pokemoninfo2);

}
else
{
  echo "<a href='battle.php'>No Pokemon selected. Go Back!";
  exit;
}
$playerhp = $playerinfo3['hpoints'];
$playerattack = $playerinfo3['attack'];
$playerdefense = $playerinfo3['defense'];

$pokemonhp = $pokemoninfo3['hpoints'];
$pokemonattack = $pokemoninfo3['attack'];
$pokemondefense = $pokemoninfo3['defense'];
//Players Turn
echo "<u>" . $playerinfo3['name'] . "'s Attack </u>";
$playerattack = rand(1,15) * (2*$playerattack) - ($pokemondefence);
if ($playerattack < 0)
{
  $playerattack = 0;
}
if ($playerattack < 1)
{
  echo 'Your attack misses!';
}
$newpokemonhp = $pokemonhp - $playerattack
if ($newpokemonhp < 1) /////////////////////////////////////////////LINE 40

It's not that it moves an error most of the time. It's just found another error usually unless you blatantly make the possible problem go to a new line for testing.

$newpokemonhp = $pokemonhp - $playerattack

needs to be
$newpokemonhp = $pokemonhp - $playerattack;

needs a ; on the end. Usually if you miss a ";" it will just tell you you got an error on the next line down that it reads. if you had if statements that don't currently apply in between and the like it can be tricky to find. Just gotta look and work out how the code is working in your head as you go.

Then on line 46 you have an extra apostrophe sitting after hpoints that doesn't seem to have a mate
Your next problem might be on line 48 I think you have a "}" that doesn't go to any other "{" I think you can just take out the one above it and be fine.

That's all I saw in it. I have not tried to run it as I don't have a database set for it.

I guess your "creatures" table is called "creature" ?

Code: Select all

creature Browse Structure Search Insert Empty Drop 2 MyISAM latin1_swedish_ci 2.0 KiB -

You can change :

Code: Select all

$creatureinfo="SELECT * from creatures order by rand() limit 1";

to:

Code: Select all

 $creatureinfo="SELECT * from creature order by rand() limit 1";

Hope this works.

Will this turn into being a true online game? because thats what im hoping to learn how to do by the end of the tutorial.

Posted: **Tue Dec 14, 2010 3:12 am**

yes of course. It is already a true online game. Just got to put it online. I will make some videos to show you how.

Try to change in line 61 from this:

Code: Select all

$updatecreature = " delete from creatures when name = '$creature' limit 1";

to this:

Code: Select all

$updatecreature = " delete from creatures where name = '$creature' limit 1";

hope it works:D
