Lottery System access?

[Budget101]

I downloaded & Installed the pro version of the shop, but I don't see anywhere to alter the lottery settings...

Lotteries are items, same as usergroup permissions etc.

Oh, I see, thanks.

New Question, what are the odds, if I set this to Daily, will there be a winner regardless as long as someone plays the lotto, or is it entirely dependent on how high we set the numbers?


Also, any way to limit the # of lotto tickets a member purchases?

I suspect it's possible that there's no winner in the lottery, though I'm not sure, @Deceptor: made it.

I don't think it's possible to put a limit to number of lotto tickets, you should use the price of the ticket as an artificial limit

The odds are a combination of of your range (1-X) and how many numbers are used, we don't force anyone to win - when the lottery is drawn automatically X numbers are selected at random then compared against all tickets purchased for that draw, winners/losers are then notified accordingly

If you want to calculate odds so you can set up the payouts accordingly, use this site: http://www.lottogenie.com/html/odds.html

I think there should be a place that displays the odds and payouts....
