how to make an in app purchase remove iads?

reginald.bernardin · July 2013

hello is there a rule that when purchases an in app, it removes all iads in the game. is this possible for gamesalad?

The_Gamesalad_Guru · July 2013

Just put you ads behaviors in a rule with a Boolean change it to true to turn off ads

reginald.bernardin · July 2013

i think i did and it did not work

reginald.bernardin · July 2013

there's not actor called turn offs ads though
and make it an attribute is a little difficult for the game to relate is to iads

bjandthekatz · July 2013

Create a Boolean attribute, call it "No Ads"
Create an actor for your ads

Create a rule inside that actor, If Attribute No Ads is False
Display Ads
Otherwise: Do Nothing or Destroy Actor

Hope this helps

@bjandthekatz oh ok but what rule do i put in the in app actor to trigger it when they purchase it?

bjandthekatz · July 2013

Just put the default iAp purchase, and change attribute NoAds.

create a game.ads atribbute then make a non-consumable inApp change the game.ads atribbute value. just it. your GS account is Pro? this behavior is pro only

I'm sorry maybe i'm not explaining right i think. I iads display in each scene. But i also have an inapp called bonus content. when you purchase bonus content it gives you an extra stage and i want the i ads to be turned off. the rules you gave me i put them it and it doesn't really work

iamcartez · July 2013

Do you want the ads turned off altogether or just on that extra stage?

reginald.bernardin · July 2013

@iamcartez I want the extra stage to be unlocked and turn off ads.

I want iads turned off completely for each scene when they purchase the bonus content. it's like they get an extra stage and no iads appear in each scene.

Sorry thanks for everyone's help, i just could not understand...lol

i see three good solutions for this problem, did you have trouble implementing them?

tenrdrmer · July 2013

Yeah I think you are simply not implementing it right. First make sure you only have one iAd behavior in the entire scene. Then put that behavior in a rule that says

When game.noads = false
--show iAd

Then you need to make an IAP behavior that is non consumable and sets game.noads to true.

reginald.bernardin · July 2013

ok i will try

reginald.bernardin · July 2013

i need to make an in app behavior inside the iads actor or the bonus content actor?

hhhmm - lets bend this in neon.

Start by deleting all related rules so we make sure you dont have any bad rules messing it all up.
--------------------------------------------------

1. Create a new game.attribute integer called "No ads" by default it is set to 0. leave it like that.

--------------------------------------------------

2. Go to your "iads display actor"
Create a new rule
If game.no ads = 0

Now put in your iads behavior here
And make sure to put the actor in the scene.

The logic is that as long as "game.no ads = 0 it will always show your iads.
meaning, if you change it to 1 it wil NOT show ads.

---------------------------------------------------

3. Go to your in-app button.
When touch is pressed
Then you have 3 options
Pick success - under succes you put in a "change attribute" behavior saying

Change.attribute.game.no ads = 1

---------------------------------------------------

After going over this you should be able to make it work.
I dont think it can be explained in more detail then this.

If you still have trouble, then I would recommend you going through the cookbook and brush up on some generel knowledge
