Extension Description:
The Ultimate Points is an addition to your phpBB3 forum, where people can gain points and also are able to spend points, of course.
- Add get_top_balances() to the stable third-party API.
- Migrated the entire extension from the legacy $this->user->lang['KEY'] pattern to the standard \phpbb\language\language service.
- Refactored the UCP controller (ucp/ucp_ultimatepoints_module.php) to controller/ucp_controller.php.
Duel/Wager
Challenge another member to a 1v1 wager. Both stakes are held in escrow the moment the challenge is accepted, so the pot is always there for the winner. Choose how the outcome is decided:
- Coin-flip — resolved instantly and automatically, server-side
- Moderator decision — a mod/admin with the new permission picks the winner from a dedicated queue
New permissions:
- u_use_duel — use the Duel module (granted to Registered by default)
- m_resolve_duel — resolve admin-decided duels (not auto-granted; assign explicitly). A mod/admin can never resolve a duel they're a party to.
New ACP settings: min/max wager, accept time limit, max open challenges per user, default resolution mode, mChat announcements — under Points → Duels.
Other:
- Full duel history in UCP
- Expired pending challenges auto-refund
- New dispatcher events: duel_challenged_after, duel_accepted_after, duel_resolved_after
Bounty Board Post a task with a reward attached — the reward is escrowed the moment you post it, so it's guaranteed to be there once the work is done.
Another member claims an open bounty and submits their work
- Optional poster approval step (ACP toggle) before payout, or instant payout if approval isn't required
- Poster can cancel an unclaimed bounty (refunded); claims that sit unsubmitted past a configurable time limit are auto-released back to the pool
- New permission: u_use_bounty
- New ACP settings: min/max reward, claim time limit, require-approval toggle, mChat announcements
- Full bounty history in UCP
- New dispatcher events: bounty_posted_after, bounty_claimed_after, bounty_paid_out, bounty_cancelled_after
