Bot identifying too slow

[woodencross]

Hey guys,

I got an eggdrop running on a shell with anope and unrealircd. I installed the ident09.tcl for identifying and for (re-)getting ops in all channels I specified. The admin gave a vhost to the bot, but for having the vhost, the bot has got to identify himself to nickserv.
Now my problem:
The bot has joined all channels after a few seconds, but with the original hostmask. It takes nearly 30 seconds to identify itself to nickserv and with that, getting the vhost. I saw on another server an eggdrop restarting and it first identifyed and after that joined the channels.

Meanwhile, I edited the eggdrop.conf and added this:

Code: Select all

proc evnt:init_server {type} {
  global botnick
  putquick "MODE $botnick +i-ws"
  putquick "MSG NickServ identify ****"
set default-port 6667
}

I added the msg-stuff. Why does it not work like I want it?

Please help

did you add the bind to execute your proc?

Code: Select all

bind evnt - init-server evnt:init_server
proc evnt:init_server {type} { 
  global botnick 
  putquick "MODE $botnick +i-ws" 
  putquick "MSG NickServ identify ****" 
} 
#I recommend leaving this outside the proc
set default-port 6667

Not necesarly he is slow.. maybe the NickServ services are.

Maybe your bot has alot of commands to que when it connects
to a server, you can eventually modify this a little bit to make
it faster if possible.

The "-next" option in putquick is currently the fastest way
for the bot to send commands to a server or services. By utilizing
this option all the queues are pushed up in front of previous queues
currently pending by the bot.

Code: Select all

bind evnt - init-server evnt:init_server 

proc evnt:init_server {type} { 
  global botnick 
  putquick "MODE $botnick +i-ws" -next
  putquick "PRIVMSG NickServ :IDENTIFY <password here>" -next
}

Hm, sounds good, gonna try that. Will post if it works or not

[spock]

to bypass the queue completely you could do something like

Code: Select all

proc putnow { a } {
  append a "\n"
  putdccraw 0 [string length $a] $a
}

but you wont want to push too many lines at a time (excess flood / sendq exceeded / whatever else)

EDIT: (how to use it)

putnow "PRIVMSG #abc :test 1 2 3"

[woodencross]

putquick "PRIVMSG NickServ :IDENTIFY <password here>" -next

This really works best! Thank you very much
