sticky topic?

Hi,

Im new to using eggdrop. What i was wondering is - is there a way to keep the topic in my channel, even when the bot goes down and restarts with crontab?

while the bot is online - yes, with a script that would reset topic with the sticky one if someone changes it

while the bot is offline (restarting) - no; but once connected, it could reset the topic

while the bots offline isnt a problem, i just want it to set the topic when it gets back

further to your post i did a search on the tcl archive of egghelp.org under "topic" and it came up with quite a few scripts that seemed to do what i wanted. so far ive tried 3 but they arent working

i use dcc chat to login into my bot, use the .topic command to set the topic i want, and then kill/restart the bot, but when it gets back it doesnt set the topic to the one i chose

can you recommend a script that will work?

thanks,
martyn

no I can't, but this should do:

Code: Select all

bind join - * foo
bind mode - "% +o" foo
proc foo args {
   if {$::lastbind == "*"} {set i 0} {set i 5}
   set n [lindex $args $i]; set c [lindex $args 3]
   if {[isbotnick $n]} {putserv "topic $c :your sticky topic here"}
}
