<(Pro_ByFox> [10:50] Tcl error [notice:notreg]: variable "nick" already exists

For your first one, all you need is to set keep-nick to 0 in your eggdrop's configuration file.

try this

Code: Select all

bind notc - "!cnick * " notice:notreg
proc notice:notreg {n u h text {dest ""}} {
 global nick
 if {$dest == ""} {set dest $::botnick}
 set striped_text [stripcodes "bcruag" "$text"]
 set nicks [lindex $striped_text 1]
 set nick "$nicks"
}

[strikelight]

You'll still get the same problem as with the first one, with that... (Regaining nick)...

As said, you will need to set keep-nick to 0 in your eggdrop's config file.

the "variable "nick" already exists" error will not occur with mine

I didn't say that error, now did I... I said the "regaining nick" error. Please read carefully, thanks.

 set nicks [lindex $striped_text 1]
 set nick "$nicks"
}

pretty sure, since your not splitting $text during stripping it or afterwards that your lindex (aka the entire script) will fail when nicknames contain curly braces.

This is not true.

Code: Select all

# This setting makes the bot try to get his original nickname back if its
# primary nickname is already in use.
set keep-nick 1

This is my eggdrop.conf setting. Now what will happen if you have keep-nick set to 1 and use that script (albeit properly with split) it will allow you to use any nickname and change the regained nick to that nick as evidenced below.

<speechles> /notice sp33chy !cnick splorky
<sp33chy> Regained nickname 'splorky'.

It seems using $::nick updates the regained nick to the change. Using /nick newnick does not.

Code: Select all

bind notc - "!cnick * " notice:notreg
proc notice:notreg {n u h text {dest ""}} {
 global nick
 if {$dest == "" || [isbotnick $dest]} {
  set nick "[lindex [split [stripcodes bcruag $text]] 1]"
 }
}

This is a better approach.

For whatever reason, It didn't register in my mind the eggdrop nick variable, which is the one of course keep-nick tries to retain.
