[Suggestion] Cancel Deletion

[M4GO]

hello you can add support to cancel deletion of characters in account page

[Leesneaks]

This is something I had started working on in my bootstrap theme but due to health I stopped on all of my projects. I'm slowly coming back now so will look at updating this into the Dev version when I get some more time.

I planned on shrinking it down and tidying it up more

@Leesneaks, do you still plan to continue this?

[Leesneaks]

Yes mate. But I've just had a baby so ATM I'm not working on any projects. As soon as things settle I plan on getting back onto my work.

Players often delete character to unlock it's name. So 'delete' action should change name of character and 'undelete' should change it back.

// code from other AAC

Delete player code - allows anyone to delete character:

                $i = 0;
                $nameCheckPlayer = new Player();
                $nameCheckPlayer->find($player->generateDeletedName($i));
                while ($nameCheckPlayer->isLoaded()) {
                    $i++;
                    $nameCheckPlayer->find($player->generateDeletedName($i));
                }

                $player->setName($player->generateDeletedName($i));

Undelete code - allows undelete only if no one else is using character name already:

    $undeletePlayerName = $player->generateUndeletedName();

    $testUndeletePlayerName = new Player($undeletePlayerName, Player::LOADTYPE_NAME);
    if ($testUndeletePlayerName->isLoaded()) {
        echo Website::messageError('Cannot undelete <b>' . htmlspecialchars($player->getName()) . '</b>!<br />' .
            'Player with name <b>' . htmlspecialchars($undeletePlayerName) . '</b> already exists.<br />' .
            'It must be renamed or deleted before you can undelete this character.');
        return;
    }

player.php class code to generate delete/undelete names: allows players to delete character with name X -> create new character with name X -> delete new character X -> create another character with name X and so on (expects real delete from database to take 7+ days, but allows to use player name just after deletion; also expects no [ in normal character names):

    public function generateDeletedName($i)
    {
        if (substr($this->getName(), 0, 3) === '[D]')
            throw new RuntimeException('Cannot generate delete name for deleted character.');
        return '[D][' . $i . ']' . $this->getName();
    }

    public function generateUndeletedName()
    {
        if (substr($this->getName(), 0, 3) !== '[D]' || stripos($this->getName(), ']', 3) === false)
            throw new RuntimeException('Cannot generate undelete name for not deleted character.');

        return substr($this->getName(), stripos($this->getName(), ']', 3) + 1);
    }
