255766 Travian Clone

The project consists in creating the codes (PHP and MySQL database, with javascript or ajax for fast things) of a Travian-like ([login to view URL]) clone. OS will be linux. Files should be structured in the root directory, but there should also be images/ folder, and lang/ folder, as well as any other additional folders (in order to keep the main folder clean from files not related to the code). Time to complete: an estimated 3 months or less. The project should be complete after you finish the codes it should be prepared to begin accepting members at that point. The images, will be provided at the very end. Details: + Game playability should be identical to Travian (some information can be found, as well as on the game page, on [login to view URL] ) Requirements: + Game codes should be clean and optimized. An execution time should be shown during debug phases, or when set by the admin (set debug=1 on admin panel) for each page load. Execution times should be fast and consume few resources. + Security is very important - there should be no holes in the program, which would allow users to cheat. Admin area should be .htaccess protected, as well as password protected. + PLUS system (like in Travian) is required too. This would mean an implementation of a free e-commerce script such as zen-script or oscommerce, or any other shopping system. Purchases should be validated (i.e.: check the PayPal transaction before adding the bonus features to the users' accounts). + Codes should be Logically Structured - everything should be in an order which can allow spotting everything quickly. They should be properly indented too. Admin area: + General statistics page, such as: Total players, active players in the last 24 hours/48 hours/7 days, failed logins in the last 24 hours/48 hours/7 days, most failed logins (username) + Change site general parameters: title, descriptions, etc. + All general game settings, including, but not limited to: total races number, tribe characteristics/buildings, building images (upload another .jpg) + There should be a button to extend all existing plus memberships for a certain amount of time + There should be a button to award all members a certain amount of time of plus membership + There should be a word filter page (add banned words/view list/edit, etc) + There should be a page to read / reply to support requests (from the game) + There should be a page to read / take action against reported members (i.e. swearing, etc): this includes temporary or indefinite bans, etc. + Editing users: any of the parameters in the database should be editable (except for purchases) + See plus user list + Check for multis (people with more than one account, see if their accounts are cheating with one another) + Send a global message + Add/remove/view junior admin rights to users + More necessary admin functions will be needed too - see users online, see failed logins, etc. Support admins: + They can only read and reply to support requests Users + Preferences: notify by mail on new private message (default 0), on building completed (default 0) + Send private messages / archive / view news / etc. These are some of the specific features the game should have: it should include all other travian features (they can be seen in the game) Graphics will be developed by someone else. Again, codes should be clean and well-structured. The script will belong to my company, which means it cannot be sold again. Payment: Payment will be made when the Job is succesfully done. Escrow is fine when I see some progress. This includes testing and bug-tracking.
