this happens as a side effect of your xchannel chansettings not being properly initialized after (re)start loading the script for the first time

how long does it take for your bot to complete (re)starting process?

What I (last) posted occurred not by restart/rehash; everything was loaded and I dynamically added the channel. There seems to be no (apparent) problem with a static channel.

The following excerpt of a log occurred after the bot was deoped in its' channel (seems it banned a "drone", a SOp in fact; Opposing):

actually, the likely culprit for that is again your screwed initialization which must have zeroed x:drone:score

so if you still consider using the script, either fix your bot to complete (re)starting in a sane period of time, patch the script by increasing reloading delay, or manually fix x:settings after adding new channels

on a second thought... you do (chan)save/rehash after adding new channel, or don't you?

if not, do so; it would be beneficial not only for xchannel but also for your other scripts

Hmm.. I'll test on another shell, a *BSD one in Canada (pretty fast system) and see what happens there. It was the Windrop the script was removed from and Opposing was not a recognised user (now fixed). Very Happy

oh well...

considering that most people are lazy enough (just like yourself Razz

not to (chan)save/rehash after adding new channel and thus making (custom-settings) scripts aware of it, I'll intercept +chan and initialize x:settings on it

that's also going to be an opportunity to add some new feature stuff

I want it to do a belly dance.. is it possible? Razz

Kidding, well, I've sow the last replyes in here and gave it a try and loads ok, I see all the udefs being set correctly. Maybe Alchera screwed up something, duno. Ask other people/friends to give it a try and see if they get the same errors as him. Else what can I say, nice, keep it going.

One question tough, why do you keep the 'creation' of binds inside the 'channel initialisation' (init) inside a loop? what's the point in that?
