In your Directory ex eggdrop1.9.6/ edit the scr/eggdrop.h and recompile the bot. It's HANDLEN and the default No of characters is 9. You can change it to support longer than 9 char nicknames.

heare is a copy of eggdrop.h and i change the handlen to 15 and complier the eggdrop but it comes the same error

Gseen.mod seems to get the value from somewhere else. I also have compiled Eggdrop with HANDLEN 15, but gseen.mod stil complains when seening for nicks longer than 9 chars.

Anyone?

[caesar]

doh! have you seen the gseen.conf file or what is it's name? I guess you didn't.. Look inside it and you will see something about this.. I remember I've seen something like this. humm..

[Inspiron]

Thanks for your interest in this problem.

YES, I have read and modified the gseen.conf file, but there is nothing in this file refering to this nicklength thing...

Can you tell me at what line you did see it?

[egghead]

Does the gseen module use the nick-len variable set in the main config file? If so, modify that variable.

[Inspiron]

GREAT!

Apparently it does! I didn't have that line in my main config, but I added it and it works like a charm.

Thanks for your help!

[caesar]

Humm.. where I've seen that .. ? humm..

[Viper]

what ?
where is that line for changing the nick lengh of 9 characters

[Viper]

i mean in which file should i find the changes for the nick length ?

[ppslim]

As noted in Inspiron's reply.

He set it in his main config. IE the config file

[darko``]

And that would prolly be complete.eggdrop.conf. I don't think you'll find the setting in simple one or advanced. Tho, if it doesn't exist in your version of config, just add the line. Btw, simple and advanced *are* evil. They will be removed from 1.7 (or 1.8 if you like), but hopefully, even from 1.6.13 if i pester Wcc a bit more. >:>
