.set

[vince]

It seems .set in the botline doesn't work.
With an eggdrop 1.6.13 I write in the botline:
.help set
it replies:

### set my-ip <ip-address>

I write:
.set my-ip 62.211.123.41

And whenever I try to set something with .set in the botline it says:
What? You need '.help'

Thnx for help

try removing the unbind line for it in the bots conf

[Moonster]

you cant .set my-ip from telnet or partyline. just a set my-ip"" line in the conf file only.

[vince]

The point is that .set in the party line doesn't work.
And I would like to understand why.
.set help
Give me all the variables it should be possible to change.
But also a .set variable
Doesn't give me back the variable value.

I'm trying this things on eggdrop v.1.6.12 and v.1.6.13

Ciao

In your Conf file there are Bind and Unbind lines ... these lines are used to Activate/DeActivate/Change commands.

For Example

bind dcc n tcl *dcc:tcl
bind dcc n set *dcc:set

Allows the Use of Set and tcl where as

unbind dcc n tcl *dcc:tcl
unbind dcc n set *dcc:set

Turns them off

Hope that helps

[vince]

I would like to enable the set command in telnet because i'm behind a firewall and dcc doesn't work.

Thank you

Vince

The above rules stilll apply.

In eggdrop, DCC chat, is just a Telnet connection, using IRC formatting codes, and a few helper commands, to initialise the connection, nothing more.

If it be Telnet, or DCC, the partyline is the same regardless, and any enabled or disabled functions of one, effect the other.

The ".set" command, is either enabled, or disabled 100%, thus if you are shown the value of a variable, you are able to change it, if not, then it's disabled.

Follow the steps as shown, to enable it.

However, as already pointed out, you can't change the value of the my-ip setting via the partyline, as it is likely to break things.
