 |
|
Hi all,
i'm new to tcl and to eggdrop, too!
I managed to setup eggdrop on a linux vhost and get it working.
Now i'm stumbeling around while trying to get the bot setting the topic of a channel, everytime he join's the channel.
I read some scripts, that perform similiar operations, copy some - thought essential - lines from other scripts and edited them to solve the problem, but it doesn't work.
My script actualy looks like this:
| Code: |
global chan topic
set chan "#testchan"
set topic "test topic!"
if {[botonchan $chan] && [botisop $chan]} {
putquick "TOPIC $chan :$topic"
}
|
I realize that the script seems to do nothing, cause at execution time, the bot maybe isn't connected to the server or isn't on the channel yet.
Is there something like a triggerevent that is fired, when the bot is connected and in the channel?
Another idea is, to try to solve the problem with a "one-time"-timer.
I can't believe, that it should be that complicated to automaticly set a static topic. I read the documentation and searched the internet without success. Maybe i don't see the forest for the trees.
Can anyone please light up the dark?
tia

If you looked closer at the other scripts, you would've noticed the binds which trigger procedures on events (documented in Tcl-commands.doc).
| Code: | set topicchan #channel
set chantopic "Your topic here"
bind mode - "* +o" changetopic
proc changetopic {nick uhost hand chan mc targ} {
global topicchan chantopic
if {[isbotnick $targ] && [string equal -nocase $topicchan $chan]} {
putserv "TOPIC $chan :$chantopic"
}
} |
This will let the bot change the topic whenever it gains op.

Thank's for the hints!
Sadly non of them meets my needs!
I'll try to explain my wish more detailed.
Guess there is a IRC channel, which is abandoned nearly the whole day.
The bot is the only one, who's on the channel. Then there is a netsplit or the shellprovider reboots his systems. After the system is up again and running, the bot connects to the irc, joins the channel - which is formed just in time - and finds, that there is no topic! Now i want the bot to set a topic, when he enters the channel and find, no topic is set.
The trigger
| Code: | | bind mode - "* +o" changetopic |
only set's the the topic, when ANOTHER user gets @. But this event isn't fired, when the bot "creates" the channel.
Are you with me?
So, how can i get the bot do, what i want him to?
Other advises?
I've experimented with some other triggers. e.g. the following trigger
| Code: | | bind join - * changetopic |
acts like a "greeting"-trigger an changes the topic every time a user joins the channel.
The next one
| Code: | | bind topc - * changetopic |
is fired every time, when the topic is changed.
Is there a trigger to be used, or should i use a timer?

The mode bind triggers whenever a mode change occurs even if it's done by or to the bot. And to know that the one being oped is the bot itself, I've added
| Code: | | if {[isbotnick $targ]....} { |
check. Did you test it, or just came to a conclusion by yourself?

If available, simply setting 'keeptopic' would solve any problem.

Hi Sr_Fz,
i've checked it out! It doesn't work as it should.
If i paste your whole snipet to my test.tcl file, which is loaded through the eggdrop config, nothing happens when a mode change (e.g. someone get @) occurs. Only when i remove the whole if-statement | Code: | | if {[isbotnick $targ]....} { |
something happens when a user enters the channel and get @.
Greetz,
Fussel |

Sure!
I've right now managed to solve my problem by myself!
It's not the best solution but a workaround and meets my needs.
The script looks like that
| Code: | bind evnt - init-server starttimer
set topic "Testtopic here!"
set topicchan "#testchan"
proc starttimer {type} {
timer 1 [list settopic $type]
}
proc settopic {type} {
global topicchan topic
putserv "TOPIC $topicchan :$topic"
}
|
Thanks alot!
Greetz,
