I'm unable to replicate that problem at all. Last time I saw something similar to this happen to someone they had changed all the commands in the script and not coded it correctly and the timers where conflicting with another script. I have this script running in a room myself that gets daily use an...

Further to previous updates recently, I'm on a bit of a roll with this script recently so here comes the next update. This is primarily a major code update to allow users that insist on using coloured text in chat rooms to be able to play the game, prior to this version you had to be using black tex...

There are times when I think you are too harsh with posters on here demond and then there are times like this.

Top stuff mate, absolutely top stuff. Concise and to the point love it.

That's not how you choose a category you do it like this: <Ian-Highlander> !choose <Mcleod> 'Trivia 2000' Version 2.2 ©Ian-Highlander 2000-2006 started, please wait for a moment. <Mcleod> 'Trivia 2000' Inspired by ^norma ------------------- ('I can't play word games') <Mcleod> Please select a catego...

Couple of things you can try. Issue the !stop command because that should reset that variable to 0 and the bot shouldnt think the game is playing anymore, then try !start again and see what happens. Restart your bot instead of rehashing (this should not be necessary but I am completely running out o...

Did you change this by any chance? #Tells the bot wether or not the game is already running #DONT TOUCH THIS! set gameplaying 0 If you did, then change it back and rehash your bot again, if you didnt then I have no idea why its not working, are you getting any errors in the partyline? Is this on an ...

Sorry I missed one basic setting in my instructions above (although if you'd bothered to look at the user config section of the script you'd have found it easily enough). #Set the name of the channel the script is running in here set gamechan "#trivia" Change that to the room you want it t...

Upload the question text files and the tcl file to your bots script directory, change the paths in this section to the correct paths to that directory for your bot. #The data files need to be held on your shell account. #Set your questions data files here set geography /home/username/botdir/scripts/...

Resolved this issue and got it working in the end, thanks for your help Sir_Fz. One further question someone may be able to answer for me. I've used the "stripcodes" command in this new code and on checking Eggdrop documentation this command was only introduced on Eggdrop 1.6.17. Am I righ...

Yeah I cant unbind the pubm * because it would then stop every other command working. I just need to be able to unbind the category selections or answers after they have been given so that no repeats or user clashes happen. I had an idea kind of on the lines of what you where suggesting so am hoping...

Right, finally had enough time to do some work on this and with a great deal of swearing eventually got all the main commands to work using this code based on what Sir_Fz gave me above. bind pubm -|- * strip_colour_codes proc strip_colour_codes {nick uhost handle channel args} { set args [string tol...

Thanks Sir_Fz, hopefully that will point me in the right direction.

The old rust is cracking off slowly and various bits and bobs are coming back to me or I'm working them out the hard way. :D BUT.... it's always the relatively simple things that keep foxing me and I need some help with one of the other small things on my current "bugfix" list for Trivia 2...

Its on my list to document that better with the next release as a lot of people have the same problem, I should have made it clearer in the comments. It will be adjusted for the next release which I'm working on at the moment

So you and your bot both get ops in every channel you go? If not then this script would be pointless unless your bot is a sysop as it wouldnt be able to kickban anyone if it wasnt an op. Just a minor point.
