Need Help With Keepnick

[CoMMy]

Hey Guys.

I made a public tcl (!keepnick) that sets keepnick to the var given. ex. set keepnick $var .
But the bot doesnt save that. Can you suggest a way on doing this?

Thanks

keepnick can be enabled or disabled as in 1 or 0 (at least the one from the .conf file). If you want it to keep a certain nick the use "set nick the nick you want".

Yeaa but i want to be able to change it via tcl. set keepnick in a proc doesnt seem to work.
Any suggestions?

in your conf. file,
make this change.

# This setting makes the bot try to get his original nickname back if its
# primary nickname is already in use.
set keep-nick 0

Can you be more specific on what is not working? That should be helpfull..

Well what i need is a tcl that you can control via a public
command !keepnick so that i can control the keepnick quickly instead of opening the config each time. I tried doing this but it doesnt work. Can you make one please?

Thanks

try this

Code: Select all

bind pub n !keepnick keepnick:pub

proc keepnick:pub {nick uhost hand chan arg} {
   global botnick
   set botnick [lindex $arg 0]
}

try to set new global botnick variable and after ur done u reset it to its original ...

this is basic if u want errors on error stuff like that u have to do some reading like

Code: Select all

if {[string match -nocase {} [lindex $arg 0]]} {
  ...
}

if u wana use the script, not sur don't know it but i do know u can use off on switch by setting a varable 1 & 2

1 yournick
2 bnick

and by typing !keepnick on or off u can make the bot choose a nick like sample above if on then use global variable yournick = botnick if off then use global variable bnick = botnick ..
