1.Problem and Project Description

This document describes the main project for the CS4375 Oracle Programming class inthe Computer Science Department at St. Marys University. This project is about and

Oracle database for a paint ball club. The club has a group of people who get together to

play paint ball around Texas, and they purchase merchandise to support their paint ballplaying habit.

This section of the document gives some background about paint ball and about the club.

The second section of this document gives detailed information about the tables thatmake up the database including the kind of data that will be in the tables. The third

section discusses and presents some of the queries that will be created to get data and

information from the data in the tables.

1.1 Background

The game of Paintball was first developed in 1976 by man named Charles Gaines who

initially came up with the concept of players stalking each other through the woods. The

first way the game was played involved Nel-Spot pistols which were originally designed

to mark trees with paint. The initial idea of the game was for the teams to go head-to-head using these paint pistols to eliminate their opponents while trying to capture the

flag. Bob Gurnsey, a friend of Charles and co-founder of the game, later formed the

National Survival Game Company which became the first firm to sell Paintballequipment in the U.S.

Today, Paintball has evolved into a national and global sport with various types of game-

play and objectives. The most basic and widely practiced form of Paintball isrecreational. In San Antonio alone there are four different recreational fields where

anyone can go on a weekend and relieve some stress. These fields are comprised of the

typical woods scenario where the players battle it out to capture the other teams flag, aswell as a newer form called speed-ball. Speed-ball is now one of the most popular ways

to play Paintball both on the recreational level as well as professional. Speed-ball is a

simple, and extremely fast paced game, hence the name, where there is usually different

sized inflatable bunkers where the players can take cover. The object is simplyeliminating all opposing players. The best of three rounds determines the winner. In

tournament play, there are brackets where each team then moves up the charts until thefinal round, where it is then the best of five games.

The basic rules of Paintball are for the most part strait forward and common sense.

However through the years some other rules have been implemented for safer game play.The basics are: all payers must be of age ten or higher; once hit with a paintball, the

player is out; no wiping is allowed or else it results in disqualification for the rest of the

games; masks or goggles must be worn at all times when in the play area; once a player

is called out, the other team must cease fire to allow them to leave the field; guns cannotfire faster than 280 fps (feet per second) (recreational only, unlimited for tournament); a


4/17

Page 4 of17

distance of 20 feet must be kept between players (recreational only); if a player can make

it to the opposing teams starting back bunker, called The Gaud, then one oftheirplayers who had previously been out can come back in; if the game lasts past a certain

time (varies amongst fields), then the team with the most players still standing wins the

round. These are just a small part of the rules that go hand-in-hand with the sport, but

these are the most important to ensure the safety of the players, as well as the referees.

Equipment and Accessories

The first and primary pieces of equipment for a player is the gun, goggles, air tank,

Jimmy(barrel cover), and Hopper (storage and feeding apparatus for the paintballs).There are endless types and styles of guns that are available to the public. The basic types

are mechanical, electrical, Autococker, pneumatic, and one in a class of its own knownas the brand nameAngel. The guns also have various interchangeable barrels that serve

different and specific purposes, such as long and short range, as well as different air

flows (known as ports) for certain degrees of accuracy. Some high-end barrels have thecapability of making a paintball gun accurate up to 200+ feet.

Goggles are just as unique as the players and the guns they use, all with their own special

functions from the basic types, to some that have engineered ventilation and built in

walkie-talkies. The colors, designs, and shapes of the goggles are virtually endless forindividuality.

The hoppers are the main storage for the paint located on top of the gun, which feeds the

paint as the player shoots. The most basic type is a gravity fed hopper. Another type is anelectronically controlled feeding system, which feeds the balls at a much faster rate, as

well as a sensing mechanism that can tell when to stop feeding in order not to chop the

paintball.

Halo B Electronic Belt-driven Hopper

Air tanks are the fuel for the gun. They store different types of air that then run through a

regulator to propel the paintball out the barrel. There are three different types of tanks:CO2 , Nitrogen, and pure air (O2). Nitrogen is the most efficient given that it can store


6/17

Page 6 of17

much more air (up to 5,000psi at 65cu/in) in the same sized container as the other two,

giving much longer game-play between refills. Also, the nitrogen does not drop intemperature when decompressed as the others, which prevents gun and barrel freezing as

well a more constant output pressure.

Pure Energy Nitrogen Air Tank

The Jimmy is the most important feature of the gun. It keeps any accidental firing fromleaving the barrel. This is especially important when off the field and the player is around

others that do not have goggles on. There are built in safeties on every gun, however thisdevice is the ultimate safety a player can practice and is required by law to be on the

barrel at all times when not in game-play.

1.2 Project Description

This database project will be a club for Paintball enthusiasts to join and purchase

equipment for playing Paintball. The members will also have access to a table of events

that are going on in the area pertaining to the sport.

The club will have a list of members along with an identification number and details for

the member. There will then be a list of products for the members to purchase, includingpricing and rating of the object. The products will be divided into two tables, one for gear

and the other for optional accessories. When a purchase is made by a member, a list will

be created for the orders. The orders will consist of the member who made the purchase,number of each product purchased, pricing, and shipping information. Finally there will

be a table of events were the members can view time and location of events, as well as

mark on the events that they are attending.

2. Design and Tables

This section of the document about the paint ball club database gives the details of the

tables that need to in the database for the club to be able to do anything and havemeaningful data available to the members.

There will be a total of five tables for this club. The tables consist of and are aboutMembers,

Gear,

Accessories,

Orders, andEvents.

Each table is connected primarily by the member identifier assigned on the members

table to prevent redundancies throughout the database. The tables will be used to create

queries for certain details needed for the club to run. Each table will use a primary key todenote the main field and foreign key if necessary to make certain queries easier to

obtain. The products have been split into two tables since there are so many differenttypes in each category and there are two types of products to purchase. The other reasonthe merchandise if in two tables is for simplicity for the member who wishes to make a

purchase since they may only want to buy the necessary equipment needed to play the

game. The Events table is the one table that allows members to post events they wantother members to attend or follow and each event is specific to that member.

2.1 Members Table

The Members table consists of some basic information about the members which will be

used for certain queries and reports. The table will also allow the other members to see

the skill level of others for reference as well as location of the member in case they maywant to contact or play a tournament with that member. For this table, the fields included

(as shown from left to right) are the ID of the member, first then last name, age, skill

level the member is currently at, physical address, city and state, and zip code. Theprocess for getting billing and shipping information will use the member ID and the

specific fields necessary. This information will be considered and treated as the same.The first and last names are separated in the event that members can be ordered

alphabetically.

Here are some potential records in the Members table with the possible field names. It

shows the kind of data that will be available about each member.

2.2 Gear Table

The first part of the products is comprised of the gear that is necessary for playing the

game. The required gear includes guns, hoppers, masks, and so on. This part of theproducts allows the member to easily browse through the equipment available that they

would need to play the game. This table will also have data that will give them a chance

to look at ratings that other members have given the product to see if they are even

interested in it in the first place. The fields will contain data about an identifier of the

product, name of the product, description, rating, and the price of the product. All of thisinformation will be used to make reports on products sold, using the descriptions for

clarification of the actual type of product sold.

Here are some potential records in the Gear table with the possible field names. This data

will represent the details about the type of gear that can be acquired through the club.

Prod_ID P_Name P_Desc Rating Price

2.3 Accessories Table

The second part of the products is the optional accessories that a player may want to

purchase for themselves or equipment. The fields contained are the ID of the product

(using a different starting number for clarity of which type), name and description, rating,and price just as before. The description is included for the same purpose as the Gear

table. There will be at least 10 products that members will be able to order, and probably

many more than that amount.

2.4Orders Table

The orders table is primarily IDs from other tables for simplicity. This table will simply

group the member and product to a specific order number with a quantity for future

reports, as well as gathering necessary information for shipping and billing. A Total fieldis added at the end to allow for calculations at check-out. If a member makes a purchase

of more than one type of item, a new order number will be used to record the purchase.

2.5 Events Table

The events table is simply a way for members to look at what events are going on in the

area with a description and date of the event. The last column provides members with themember who posted the event. This could be used as a query to see all the events that a

certain user has posted. More fields are to come for this table.

3.Queries and Reports

This section covers the queries or reports of data that will be generated based on the

tables and what a member or administrator of the club might want. The queries are

comprised of basic information gathering as well as organizing certain fields. The queries

will also allow for a quick look up of certain members that have certain characteristics orhave made certain orders. The reports will simply be totals of certain products purchased

by certain members or total products sold. There are other queries that are even more

detailed. The information from these queries can be used for many processes andprocedures. Each of the queries currently identified are described below, along with some

possible uses of the data resulting from the query. There will be at least 20 queries

described and some will have a depth of complexity to cover all the requirements of theOracle database assignment.
