v3.6.b

Found out that 1) Moon data has a different format after moonset.

             <td style="padding: 3px; border-bottom: 1px solid CCC;">Moon</td>
             <td style="border-bottom: 1px solid #CCC;">
             3:28 AM PDT (5/23)
             </td>
             <td style="border-bottom: 1px solid #CCC;">
             4:41 PM PDT (5/23)
             </td>

2) Barrow, alaska doesn't have sunrise/sunset data because the length of day is 24 hrs

As far as the precip code not closing sockets, the problem was occurring when my ISP's dns took a dump and wasn't responding, so some of the returns didn't close it, so I just added catch {close $wzsock} all around before the returns.

Ohh I forgot to ask, do your bots on your channel do loggin? So I can dump a msg there when you're not on? Haven't had any luck catching you online.

Asking for sun rise/set info for an area it doesn't happen in shows a marked lack of intelligence to me.
If you have editted the script to show moon info and have problems with it, I do not want to hear about your problems with it in this topic. I refer you to line 181:

Code: Select all

####CODE -- Change it if you like, just don't bitch if you break it ###########

As for leaving messages when I'm not online, the network has memoserv.

As far as I can tell, the script is working fine, for what it does, as it is.

i know, i'm already getting ready to be derided for daring to ask (you really have a way with people) but: is there a change list somewhere?

also, would it really hurt to take out the stupid die statement. this is the third time i've forgotten about it (yes, i must be an idiot (for continuing to use your script)) and the die killed my bot causing the channel to lose ownership of any sort requiring me to ask everyone to leave and come back again...

yours is the only script that does something so nasty, and just because you got "tired" of answering the same question. you could just as well ignore the "stupid" people instead of killing their bots. friggin egomaniac... too bad your script is actually well done and useful, otherwise.

(seriously dude, it's totally uncool, especially since those of us who are upgrading have already set the +weather flag)

you don't have to use my script, there are several other scripts out there (including a new one based on mine)

if you're really interested in the changes, compare them

heh tried the "new one" .. back to yours .. don't need all the flooding in the channel with useless information not needed (or wanted) by 95% (conservatively) of the people that use the script on a regular basis.
Glad to know you're still updating when needed.

My bot has no problem showing Australia weather, although it is slow to do so. The slowness is on the website, not the script.

3.8 fixes a problem I just found with cities that have hyphens in the name

Alphanumeric (letters and numbers) names are still an issue though.
