Eggdrop 1.6.10 & chaninfo

Post by morfeus »

changed flood setting in config file and rehashed thebot, it shows the flood settings incorrectly (not as they were set in the config). So I killed and started the bot, but still the same. Chaninfo shows the dafault values for the flood values. the channel in question is defined in the config file.

this isn't a big deal cause it looks like the flood setting has changed anyways. but shouldn't the chaninfo show the current setting defined in the config file or does it only show the dynamic settings .. ?

Yes and no.

Both static and dynamic channels, are saved to the channels file.

The reason it doesn't change, is because of the sequence it loads the files.

First it re-loads the config file, when doing this, the settings for the static channels take effect. Then, it re-reads the channels and other files. This leaves one problem. The old settings are still in this file, and as such, it reverts back to them.

There are 2 ways around this. Change the settings both in the configfile and partyline. Else, edit the channels file, delete the line(s?) refering to the channel in question, and rehash.
