eggdrop doesn't load complete config file

I'm using eggdrop 1.6.6 with tcl 8.3 under linux. Eggdrop seems not to load the correct settings for my channel. Here are the configs.

.chaninfo
----------
flood settings: chan ctcp join kick deop nick
number: 8 3 5 3 3 5
time : 60 60 60 10 10 60

config:
--------
set global-flood-chan 10:30
set global-flood-deop 3:10
set global-flood-kick 5:10
set global-flood-join 5:60
set global-flood-ctcp 5:60
set global-flood-nick 5:60
...
channel set #XXXXX flood-chan 10:30

I have the same problem with idle-kick, too. I tried "idle-kick 0" or "dont-idle-kick" and the default setting used by eggdrop was 240.

BTW I separeted the configuration files and load it from the main config file. Could this cause the problem? The channel configuration is in it's own file.

greetings

Splitting config files will not cause any problems related to this. The way the Tcl system works, it acts as if the files are one.

You are adding channels as static channels, and once they are added in the config file, people still think they can change the settings there. This is wrong.

Eggdrop still tracks the channel in the channel file, so the changes need to be made via the DCC partyline

Try using the .chanset command to change some of these values, and a simple save should do the trick.

The global flood settings are also unrealted. These settings are only ever used when you make the bot join a new channel, without specifying flood settings. These settings will be used as the default.
