Hi everyone

was wondering if theres the possibilty to make the bot respond via dcc chat on certain commands to users?

Meaning: !cmd whatever and the Bot reply's via dcc chat. Every User in the Channel should be able to do so. I need it like this, cause there are quite a lot lines to be sent and using dcc chat should be flood free.

Thanks for helping!

DCC would require a login.
Does everyone in the channel already have an account in the bot?
Are we assuming that they are always logged into the bot?

Question for you:
On whatever network you use, are querys (a regular private message - not DCC) flood controlled?
Test it, to find out.
If you can use a pm to do your job, then it becomes much more simple.

Well its my bot so log-in control is no problem.

And yeah, all messages are flood controlled ( Notice, ... ) .

Excellent!

Let us know how you progress.

If you run into an insurmountable snag, if you wish you can post what you have here:

and perhaps we can have a look at it with you.

Bonus:
That particular pastebin does TCL syntax checking - it might help you debug your code.
