this isnt a problem so much with pop machines as with chip machines but if you make a chip machine dont forget that all too often the bag of chips doesn't make it all the way down, and you would need to find way to dislodge and shake the machine to get your chips Well, if your going to do that then I think the next person should get two, but only if the first person never got their chips. |

Lol how am i supposed to do that??? The drink gets stuck, then the next person gets two? My program doesn't work like that, it resets after each session is over (when you say no to buying more drinks). Hmmmm, i might be able to give a refund in change. My soda machine program is like a smart vending machine!!!!!

How hard would it be to have the dollar spit back out sometimes? If it doesn't do that, then it's nothing like a real vending machine. Plus, after you put your money in, sometimes certain items should be sold out. So if I choose Coke, it might tell me to choose something else. That should be easy. Maybe only the diet choices will be available and there is NO REFUND.

I'd like to point out that there is no such thing as a smart vending machine, and vending machines will always have problems.

... I have to put a for statement in there if i wanted to have a counter of how many drinks i have. but im not the guru who knows how to make the drinks keep their current count (as in, how many times they were bought), so that when you try to get them, they are sold out.
I implement a feature the other day, which if you don't put enough money in, it will ask for more, then show you a counter of how much you put in, and once you put in money for the cheapest drink, you can get it.
