eggdrop setting unwanted modes

Post by elderban »

I'm having a problem with my bot...

Even tho I've set each channel up for +nts, the bot will set +mil 1 if it is opped in a channel. I've removed all references to +mil and even removed the channel set's (bitch, enforceban, etc), but it still seems to set mode +mil 1, any way/suggestion for fixing this?

Thanks

Nevermind....found out that it wasnt overwriting the *.chan file, which was causing the problem

It doesn't overwrite the channel file, more infact, it can't.

The way this works is.

1: You start or rehash the bot

2: The config file is read, including any channel setting you create.

3: The channel file is read. Note, the old setting are still in this file, thus overwrite the changes stored in memory.

Once a channel is first created, you should allways use the ".chanset" command to make changes. So long as you use ".save" afterwards, the changes will remain so long as the channel file exists.
