Eggy impropery triggering a need bind

Zsac · Post by **Zsac** » Sun Dec 01, 2002 7:12 pm

this problem first occured when i upgraded my eggy to 1.6.12.

one of my scripts has this bind:
bind need -|- "op" gn_needop

which is getting triggered even when the bot is opped. i threw in a putlog with a [botisop $chan] in my needop function and its returning 0... while the bot is actually opped in the channel. kind've bizarre.

my eggy runs on irc.gamesnet.net

thx!

What IRC network are you on?

Does this happen on 1.6.13 as well?

The only thing I can think of, are to do with the IRC network itself.

If a network does not follow the IRC RFC, then eggdrop is likely to break.

This may seem a little unreasonable, but then again, it's unreasonable for the IRC server to break the RFC.

If eggdrop where to be adapted to correct for this issue, then it would have to adapt to correct issues with other networks.

This would likely lead to a mass of code, that defies understanding, impossible to configure nd likely not to work on any server.

You could allways try playing with your choice of setting for net-type.
