I've not been using eggdrop for some time really, so I'm looking for a little assistance with this.

My bots are running eggdrop v1.6.15.

Here's what I'm doing:

Joining a channel
Joining the bots
Part the channel

Once the bots are the only ones left in the channel, something is triggered and they send a PRIVMSG :go $CHAN to eachother.

It seems to be an attempt to get the bots to cycle the channel to regain ops, however my bots don't appear to do anything, and I don't know why.

This doesn't appear to be part of the tcl script i'm using, neither does it appear to be part of the getops.tcl included, as that uses gop not go.

So is this part of the core or a module or what?

Do I need an additional script to make this work or should it work as part of the core?

Note: there's mention of it here (so i know it's not just me): http://www.eggheads.org/pipermail/eggheads/1999-October/001691.html

I also see it here in "help/msg/irc.help":

I found I needed to use:

bind msg o|o go *msg:go

As my core script had unset all my msg binds by default using a while loop.

.binds *go* all

Show's it now.

Additional thoughts:

I see the GO command was removed here:

http://www.eggheads.org/pipermail/changes/2001-September/000498.html

We see the comment "Removed the GO command again and readded need-cycle"

It seems that in Eggdrop 1.7, need-cycle is used instead, however I also find that Eggdrop 1.7 was renamed to Eggdrop 1.9...

I was thinking that perhaps it's no longer used in 1.6, but it seems GO is still used in latest eggdrop 1.6.18
