multiple channels using 1 egg

Post by 3ggzondrugs »

Im curious as to wether its possible to run a single eggdrop in 2 channels and have the name displayed differently.
i.e.:
#chan1 botname:egg1
#chan2 botname:eggdrop2

im a n00b but pretty sure it may be easier to run another bot :oops:

What you ask for is multiple network support.

To make your bot be two seperate nickanmes, or have two seperate lots of WHOIS information, it needs to have two seperate connection to IRC.

Eggdrop prides itself for this lack of support. It makes the bot faster and better supported.

There are bots like EMech (I aint dissin it, it is good) that provides this, but the fact is many shell providers to not support it, for the fact it can be used for mass flooding and resource hogging from a single process.
