flood kicks disrupting normal channel conversation

It is very consistent and annoying having the bot kick people after a quick ten lines of normal conversation. Why is this happening? The settings clearly do not have a 10:#.

[10:57] <Katja> HI Solarin

[10:58] <Katja> i'm outside now

do a .chaninfo from the bot and see what the settings for flood-chan are etc..... you might have to do a .console #channel first if hes on more then one channel...

you can edit the flood settings on channel via

.chanset #chan flood-chan ?:?

or you have another script running thats kicking peeps...

I did a .chaninfo:
flood settings: chan ctcp join kick deop nick
number: 10 3 5 3 3 5
time : 60 60 60 10 10 60

Now why is this? You see what I have in my conf. I have not done any partyline adjustments. What is in the conf should hold true. *confused*

Btw: Definitely no other kick script loaded.

dynamic chan settings overide the config ....

simply type the

.chanset #channel flood-chan 30:60 or whatever you wish will fix the problem

Yeah thanks for that. That will solve the problems I have been having; however, that does not answer my question as to why these default settings are there in the first place. Should it not take the settings in the conf file AS the default until you explicitly change them in the partyline?

Is there a way to use the conf file settings for floods AS the default rather than having to tweek them in the partyline? This will make setting up bots easier.

Thanks again!

did you originally have 10:60 in the conf, then change them after starting the bot and joining a chan?

Solarin · Post by **Solarin** » Sat Apr 19, 2003 2:41 pm

Yes I did. I know exactly where you are heading with that. So apparently whatever the conf originally states is taken as the defaults. After that has been done initially, one must completely reset the bot by deleting the botnick.chan file OR perhaps just modify the botnick.chan file carefully.

Cheers!
