anyone know hot to make a message change nickname script?
so it writes to file-egg.conf in the ' set nick "$newnick-here" '

so on a message command

command changenick <botpass> newnick

that way the new nickname is permanent and will not change on reboot
plz help. been tryin this to get working for a while

Any script attempting to do that would first have to read in the conf file, locate the variable, alter it accordingly and then re-save the configuration file and then rehash the bot for it to tke effect.

Have you tried doing it via the command console?

Code: Select all

.tcl set nick \"Lamestbot\"

See if that works.

Why don't you just edit the .conf file and rehash? it's not like everyday you're going to change the bot's nickname.
