Is this possible ? (utimer)

[NTHosts]

say i have a simple responder script that says a few lines like...

Code: Select all

putserv "msg $chan :bleah"
putserv "msg $chan :bleah"
putserv "msg $chan :bleah"
putserv "msg $chan :bleah"

is it possible to set utimers between them like..

Code: Select all

putserv "msg $chan :bleah"
utimer 1
putserv "msg $chan :bleah"
utimer 1
putserv "msg $chan :bleah"
utimer 1
putserv "msg $chan :bleah"

so it says the next like exactly a second later ?

[krimson]

they would just print out one after another, but one second later than the first time

i would suggest using utimer in utimer. something like this:

Code: Select all

utimer 1 { putserv "msg $chan :bleah"
  utimer 1 { putserv "msg $chan :bleah"
    utimer 1 { putserv "msg $chan :bleah"
      [...]
    }
  }
}

it should do what you want

[Sir_Fz]

Code: Select all

putserv "msg $chan :bleah"
utimer 1 [list putserv "msg $chan :bleah"]
utimer 2 [list putserv "msg $chan :bleah"]
utimer 3 [list putserv "msg $chan :bleah"]

As long there is a server queue, it cannot be determined how many seconds it delays. Per default the queue cycle is every 2 secs, so its impossible to have 1 second delay. And still then (when you decrease it in server.c, use putquick or putdccraw), IRC is a laggy thing and 1-2 seconds go missing in some netlag pretty fast.

have you tried using puthelp instead of putserv?
(sometimes it's better to just use the easiest method)
