correct use of 'bind mode'

[arfer]

I've made a pretty stupid mistake, I know it. Cant get this to work though

bind MODE - * pDemote

proc pDemote {nick uhost hand chan mode victim} {
global botnick
if {$victim == $botnick && $mode == +o} {
pushmode $chan -o $botnick
putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :Please don't Op me, I'm not experienced enough"
}
if {$victim == $botnick && $mode == +v} {
pushmode $chan -v $botnick
putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :Please don't Voice me, I find it a bit scary"
}
}

I get

Tcl error [pDemote]: syntax error in expression "$victim == $botnick && $mode == +o": variable references require preceding $

I just cant see the error

[spock]

$var == "whatever" <- note the ""

other than that, i would suggest using [isbotnick $victim]

[avilon]

Code: Select all

if {[isbotnick $victim] && ($mode == "+o")} {

Thanks avilon/spock. Incorperated your 2 suggestions and dont get an error now. Howeverr, whilst the channel message is displayed, the demotion doesn't occur.

bind MODE - * pDemote

proc pDemote {nick uhost hand chan mode victim} {
global botnick
if {[isbotnick $victim] && $mode == "+o"} {
pushmode $chan -o $botnick
putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :Please don't Op me, I'm not experienced enough"
}
if {[isbotnick $victim] && $mode == "+v"} {
pushmode $chan -v $botnick
putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :Please don't Voice me, I find it a bit scary"
}
}

works for me. try adding a "flushmode $chan" (shouldnt really be needed)
or use putserv "MODE $chan -o $victim" instead of pushmode

as for devoicing itself when it wont allow itself to be opped, that wont work unless it's halfopped (or some other funky stuff)

edit: speelingg broken

[arfer]

silly me

yeh the op/deop works but it cant devoice if it doesnt have ops

I'll just go crawl down a hole somewhere

i think you could do this as well

Code: Select all

bind mode o|o "* -o" command

id say thats a pretty right way to use it .. the bind that is..
