return a value in a timed event

[Dedan]

I have a problem with eggdrop setting a value in a timed event.
the below works fine until the timer times out and tries to
unset the var. it can not find the value of "$av_temp"
I just want to unset the varaible.

<Zia> [07:54] Tcl error in script for 'timer49':
<Zia> [07:54] can't read "av_temp": no such variable

Any ideas?

Code: Select all

set voice_ban_time 7


proc voice:cntrl {stuff} {
  global botnick stuff
 
  set av_temp [getchanhost $victim $chan]
  set voice_ban([lindex [split $av_temp @] end]) 1
  timer $voice_ban_time {unset voice_ban([lindex [split $av_temp @] end])}
}

This is because your timer command is surounded in brackets.

These brackets delay the parsing of the linud command until the timer triggers.

Somthing like this will fix it

Code: Select all

timer $voice_ban_time [list unset voice_ban([lindex [split $av_temp @] end])]

try

Code: Select all

timer $voice_ban_time [list unset voice_ban([lindex [split $av_temp @] end])]
