IRC commands after bot connects...

[Squirre1]

I connect my bot to a server that has some hellish commands to authenticate and other BS.. Is there a script or just any other way I can force my bot to run PRIVMSGs after a successful connection to a server.

Follow the example as given in the config file.

Look for "set init-server"

[Squirre1]

Can you use that multiple times...
for ex.

set init-server {putserv "MODE $botnick +i-ws"}
set init-server {putserv "PRIVMSG AuthServ etc.."}
set init-server {putserv "PRIVMSG ChanServ etc.."}

Yes but not like that, use it in the following format:

Code: Select all

set init-server {
putserv "MODE $botnick +i-ws"
putserv "PRIVMSG AuthServ etc.."
putserv "PRIVMSG ChanServ etc.."
}

The init-server setting has a limited string size, thus, the more complex your script gets, the easier it will overload it.

You can do somthign like the following to fix that

Code: Select all

set init-server {my-init-server}
proc my-init-server {} {
  commands here
  rather than in
  the init-server setting
}

Or just use the new fangled evnt bind and never worry about other scripts overwriting your init-server variable

Code: Select all

bind evnt - init-server evnt:my-initserver

proc my-initserver {type} {
  command1
  command2
  etc
}
