Price

---

Before start working with program you have to set up prices.

You can do it from ADDITIONAL - PRICE EDITOR menu from server.

Format of price is:

[<tariff> <start hour>-<stop hour>]
<length in minutes> = <cost>
<length in minutes> = <cost>
:
<length in minutes> = <cost>

Example:

[game 8-20]
60=15
120=28

[game 20-23]
60=10

[internet 8-23]
60=40

With this price 30 minutes from 8-00 to 20-00 will cost 7.5, 1 hour will cost 15, and 3 hours will cost 43 (as 1 hour + 2 hours)

If 2 hours length session goes from 19-00 to 21-00, first hour will be calculated form as 60=15 and second hour will be calculated as 60=10, so this session will cost 25.

Price is defined for each day of week and for each group of computers.

Computers groups

You can define different prices for different computers.
Format of groups is:
[<group name>]
<from computer number> - <to computer number>
:
<from computer number> - <to computer number>

Example:
[default]
1-15
20-30

[VIP]
16-19

Group default contains computerf from 1st to 15th and from 20th to 30th
VIP group contain computers from 16th to 19th

Price editor

On the left there is tabs with days of week and special tab for groups. You have to define price for each day of week and groups. After editing those fields press SAVE GROUP button.

 Additional features

Exact time packets

If you want to define exact interval of time for defined money you can use EXACT

[<tariff> <start hour> - <stop hour> exact]
<time in minutes> = <money>

Example:
[game 10-12 exact]
120=20

EXACT does not defines tariff! So you have to use it only with tariff definitions, example:

[game 9-9]
60=15

[game 10-12 exact]
120=20

It means, that in all time one hour cost 15, but 2 hours exactly from 10-00 to 12-00 costs 20

Traffic

To turn on internet, use traffic definitions.
[<tariff> traffic <free traffic per hour in Kb>]
<extra traffic in Kb> - <cost for one Mb>

Example:

[internet traffic 1024]
0=5
5120=4
10240=3
It means, that tariff internet includes 1mb of free traffic per hour and traffic over this free 1mb costs 5, traffic over 5mb - cost 4 , over 10mb - cost 3

Minimal cost

You can set up minimal cost for each tariff.
Use MINCOST to do it
[Mincost]
<tariff> = <minimal cost>
<tariff> = <minimal cost>

Example:
[Mincost]
Internet=15

It means, that any session with internet tariff will cost equal or more then 15

Example of full price:

[game 9-12]
60=20
120=35

[game 12-20]
60=25

[game 20-23]
60=20
120=35

[game 23-9]
