Having a Channel Limit Problem

mcdarby · Post by **mcdarby** » Thu Sep 09, 2004 3:56 am

Hi, I am trying to use a TCL to auto limit channels my bot is in at 4 user increments and I was using one that was configurable via the .limit DCC command. The problem is that it only works for one channel and I am looking for one to work with auto limiting multiple channels. And it seems that most limit scripts that I find are for single channels or would cause the limit to be done in all channels my bot is on. Well. the problem there is that there are some channels that I don't want +l set. Anyway, is there any tcl scripts or modules that can help me achieve this, this is only one bot and not a botnet.

Sincerely,

Erik McDarby

Go download and use slennox's tcl script in 'my scripts' on egghelp.org. The file is limit.tcl or chanlimit.tcl it supports multiple channels.

Also you can try mc_8's channel limiter script mc_limit.tcl something is the name is. Just search it on tclscript.com and you fill find it!

This is one of the best autolimit scripts i've seen, It works for multiple channels.

Hi, I tried that one and this is what happened when I tried to .rehash on my bot to load it.

<Eggdrop> [00:45] Tcl error in file 'MFServ.conf':
<Eggdrop> [00:45] invalid type. Must be one of: flag, int
<Eggdrop> while executing
<Eggdrop> "setudef str "autolimit""
<Eggdrop> (file "scripts/autolimit.tcl" line 10)
<Eggdrop> invoked from within
<Eggdrop> "source scripts/autolimit.tcl"
<Eggdrop> (file "Eggdrop.conf" line 1109)
<Eggdrop> [00:45] * CONFIG FILE NOT LOADED (NOT FOUND, OR ERROR)

This resulted in my bot crashing (going offline) and I have to remove the entry in the eggdrop.conf to fix it. Then I tried the one under it on that page, it worked partically when it would do the limit in one channel, but not in the other channel when I set it to do it in two of the channels my bot is in. And both channels the bot isn't enforcing -l.

The only limit script that did work for me and seems to be working for me is the one by slennox.

Yes slennox's is the best it supports multiple channels, so keep using it. No need to try others if it works fine for multiple channels. Or if you have the ability to code, do it yourself it's really not that hard especially limit scripts.
