Eggdrop & sBNC

Post by Lee- »

I am trying to get my bot to work correctly while connecting through a sBNC.
I have got it to connect, and all the commands, etc. work but the bot doesn't recognise it self as an op, and won't use any of it channel protections. Also, the actual bouncer never disconnects, just changes the nick to RBot|DEAD, and then when it reconnects it changes it nick back to the default.

Is there anyway I can get it to recognise it's an op without deopping, and then opping it?

check your conf file and verify you have the correct value set for set net-type. An incorrect setting here can cause things to get weird. Also, make sure your bot is set to .chanset [channel] +nodesynch.

Depending on what network you are on, you may need to change the "set opchars" in your conf. My bots need the following to work properly:

Code: Select all

set opchars "@&~"

If it's any help the bnc is connected to LinkNet. So I set it to type 5? Is that right?

Not sure what the NodeSynch command does? But I done it anyway.

eggdrop.conf includes detailed descriptions of which does what. I suggest you actually read it, carefully.

Sorry, I hvae read up on nodesynch and I don't think it would be that helpful in this case as I'm not having problems with other people doing ops, kicks etc.
The problem is that my bot doesn't properly recognise he's an op (this isn't happening all the time now... weird). I'll see how it goes and if I still have problems I'll try detail it some more.

Did you do as DragnLord suggested in his post?

Code: Select all

set opchars "@&~"
Try this:

Code: Select all

set opchars "@&~!"
Some networks use the exclamation mark to indicate status as well.

Ok, I am still having a problem.

I tried changing the opchars, and added the ! and still no luck.

This has got me stumped... When the status comes up in the terminal it says that they are no ops in the channel, but other times (when I op it manually) it will go through and op everyone in the AOP list, even thought they are already opped.
Could it be something the bouncer is doing?

its known sBNC bug, rejoining channel helps
