ignoring the +l flag in a channel?

[Dragan2000]

Hi there,

my eggdrop is in a channel with another eggdrop from a friend. My friend's eggdrop has a TCL, that sets the user-limit in the channel +3 users that are in the channel.

The Problem: My eggdrop removes the l-flag (sets mode -l) and these two bots are spamming by setting +l and setting -l the channel.

How can i teach my bot not to set the mode -l ?

Hope someone can help me...

maybe a stupid suggestion, but what about running the same tcl? or going for something like netbots and linking the bots?

I just assisted somebody else in this same matter (I think!) last night. The problem was that the bot was enforcing +nt-ilms on the channel. If you do .status and it says something like this:

..[bot(dcc)] #chan : 14 members, enforcing "+tn-lism"

Then you need to do ".chanset #chan chanmode" to clear the modes, then ".chanset #chan chanmode +nt" to adjust it to your needs. Keep in mind that anything enforced via this method can cause mode floods between clients/bots as in your situation. Only have a channel -l if you really need a limit NEVER set on it, otherwise just do not have either +l or -l set.

I hope that helps.

Most likely is that its set in the config file as the default leaves it set +nt-klm (or something like that from memory) changing it using .chanset will work fine until the next time the bot is restarted.

I'd suggest checking your config file and editing it.

Ian-Highlander - This is incorect.

Even though the channel is created in the config file, any changes made against the channel using .chanset, will forever remain, once the channels file has been saved.

After reading the config file, the channel file is read, thus, after the config file creates and sets the channel settings, as defined there, and settings in the channel file, as changed and saved using .chanset, will then overide the config file.

This is the reason why many people post in and ask why changing values in the config file, are taking no effect.

I stand corrected by the master


However I stand by my comments that if you are going to use the hard coded channel settings in the config file then all the -flags should be removed in the first place, it amazes me why the default has them there.

But you are of course right, put it down to not enough caffeine yet this morning.
