Simple trigger script

[noobie10111]

Hey all, I'm really new to this

I have my eggdrop up and running thankfully

I'm looking for a script so if someone types !ts it prints back the ip of my ts server, e.g. 244.244.244.244

It could be anything really just so I can get the syntax for a simple trigger response

I've browsed through alot of the pages but can't find anything

Would really appreciate the help, thanks

The answers you seek are inside the eggdrop directory, inside doc. It's a file called tcl-commands.doc - which explains all of the commands and events you can use. Have a read of this and this?

Hint -
see: bind pub

I hope this helps.
Let us know how you do.

heres a simple script that does exactly what you want

Code: Select all

#set what you want the command to be below.
set command !example_command

#set what you want it to say below
set message Sample Message

#No need to edit below this line
bind pubm - "$command" my_simple_script
proc my_simple_script {nick uhost handle chan text} {putquick "privmsg $chan :$message"}

Don't forget to edit those variables up there! Once your done just put it in a .tcl file a drop it in your scripts directory. In your eggdrop.conf add that .tcl file and your done! Enjoy!

Just a couple of things;
Firstly, the set command is fine, but with set message, you'd want to brace your text string with "" .. like

Code: Select all

set message "this is a message text"

Secondly, for a pub bind, the proper arguments are

Code: Select all

{nick uhost hand chan arg} {

Instead of using "" in the bind, you can just do

Code: Select all

${command}

You also forgot to declare the message as a global var, within the proc, otherwise it will error as $message can't be read.

Code: Select all

global message

or you can not declare, like you did, and call it using

Code: Select all

$::message

You're still learning, so it's good to try many different methods then find what works best.
