request?

Hello everyone,
I've tried and i mean this but i fear brackets . I tried to use bind nick (bind) so when my $botnick change to a specific nick it (putserv) trigger something like "I'm off" .. it's a temp nick and that means the bot went off . i still fear brackets

like the mirc commands if $nick == botoff

peace

This is my useless code

Code: Select all

bind NICK - * offnick
proc offnick {nick uhost hand text} {
  if {$botnick == botoff } {
    putserv "PRIVMSG $chan I'm off"
  }
}

But i get this all the time
Tcl error [offnick]: called "offnick" with too many arguments

any ideas?

Try this:

Code: Select all

bind nick -|- "*" offnick
 
proc offnick {nick uhost handle channel newnick} {
  global botnick
  if {[$newnick == $botnick] && [$botnick == botoff]} {
    set chan [string tolower $channel]
    putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :I'm off"
  }
  return 0
} 

Remember that this is case-sensitive,
the Bots nick must be botoff, not Botoff

I hope it helps

i got this error

Tcl error [offnick]: wrong # args: should be "botoff"

the nick was botoff , so it wasnt about the case-sensitive.

peace

Code: Select all

  if {[$newnick == $botnick] && [$botnick == botoff]} {
 

remove the []s here.

i got this now ..

Tcl error [offnick]: syntax error in expression "$newnick == $botnick && $botnick == botoff"

[Dedan]

try this:

Code: Select all

bind nick -|- "*" offnick 

proc offnick {nick uhost handle channel newnick} { 
  global botnick 
  if {![$newnick == $botnick]} {return 0} 
  if {[$botnick == botoff]} { 
    set chan [string tolower $channel] 
    putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :I'm off" 
  } 
  return 0 
} 

I get that "syntax" error quite often, i correct it with brackets.

I hope this helps.

try this instead:

Code: Select all

if {[string equal $newnick $botnick] || [string equal $botnick "botoff"]} {

damn , i just begun and it turned out to be hard. what if i intend to write my own script , what would happen then? a lil small script since yesterday and i've acrossed heeps of errors .. not a good start not good at all.
i got this now
Tcl error [offnick]: called "offnick" with too many arguments.
lets make it simple.

this

Code: Select all

bind nick -|- "*" BOTNEW 

proc BOTNEW {nick uhost handle newnick} { 
  global botnick offnick
  if {$botnick == $newnick && $botnick == $offnick} { 
    putserv "PRIVMSG &owner :ITS NOT WORKING :("
  } 
  return 0 
} 

the code return nothing and i mean nothing at all and with same error
Tcl error [BOTNEW]: called "BOTNEW" with too many arguments.

peace
PS: $offnick is a var i intend to use in this code

try my last post

[Sir_Fz]

well, I see no use of this if {$botnick == $newnick && $botnick == $offnick} { confusion.

better if its just if {[string equal $newnick $offnick]} { instead or even if {$newnick == $offnick} { would be fine too.

"if {[string equal $newnick $offnick]} "
this would trigger the channel message anytime
ANYONE chose that nick , also
(offnick has not been assigned a value)

the same goes for:
" if {$newnick == $offnick} { "

string match -nocase might even be better

I still think my last post will work:

Code: Select all

bind nick -|- "*" offnick 

proc offnick {nick uhost handle channel newnick} { 
  global botnick 
  if {![$newnick == $botnick]} {return 0} 
  if {[$botnick == botoff]} { 
    set chan [string tolower $channel] 
    putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :I'm off" 
  } 
  return 0 
} 

give it a try

PS: $offnick is a var i intend to use in this code

that means $offnick is set in hist script.
but ur right about "this would trigger the channel message anytime
ANYONE chose that nick", didn't think about it.

but would be simpler like this:

Code: Select all

##set the bot's off nick
set offnick "botoff"

bind nick - * off:nick 

proc off:nick {nick uhost handle channel newnick} { 
global botnick offnick
  if {[string match -nocase $newnick $botnick] || [string match -nocase $botnick $offnick]} {
   foreach chan [channels] {
   putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :I'm off" 
    }
  } 
}

[Dedan]

wouldn't "||" still return errors?
maybe "||" should be "&&"

[Sir_Fz]

"||" = "or"
"&&" = "and"

so in this case both can be used, since the two rules must apply in order for the proc to apply.

also u can remove the "foreach chan [channels] {" code, there is no use for it.

u can immediatly do a "putserv "PRIVMSG $channel :I'm off"" to make it simpler.
