1.6.10 limbo problems

Im new to the whole modules thing and the whole 1.2+ family of eggdrops. I am currently upgrading from 1.1.5 and got a problem with trying to make my hub limbo using modules.

From what I understood all I had to do was not load the servers module and my bot would be limbo. Well I did that but then it won't let me load irc and ctcp which is understandable.

Now my problem is that my tcl has procs which are reliant on things that are in those modules. It seems now that I lose alot of flexability with my eggdrop if I want to make it limbo. Am I missing something or is there a way around this? Thanks in advance

You do lose this functionality, this is correct, and there is no way around it, without putting the bot on IRC.

The reason you lose these commands, is because they serve no purpose, unless you will be performing a task, that the module in question is responsible for.

It is impossible to use a limbo bot as a share hub, as the required code to perform most of these tasks is not available. IE, there is no point handling channel flags, if the bot will not be joining any channels, there is no point handling bans if I aint gonna do anything with them.

sure you can use limbo hubs as share hubs. the channels module does not force the loading of the server module (though quite annoyingly the uptime module does).
