That's easy to say if you know that init-server is what you're looking for .. not everyone does.

You can find it in config file and in many other doc files in eggdrop package.

Code: Select all

# This is a Tcl script to be run immediately after connecting to a server.
bind evnt - init-server evnt:init_server
proc evnt:init_server {type} {
  global botnick
  putquick "MODE $botnick +i-ws"
}

I just don't understand where you put this... my config file looks a little different. i did it 5 years ago heh.

Code: Select all

set init-server {
  putserv "MODE $botnick +i-ws"
  putserv "PRIVMSG authserv@services.gamesnet.net :identify username pass"
}

all I added was the line with PRIVMSG in it, but it's not working. should I just take out all of that and put in what you said?

I suggest you download the latest eggdrop tarball and very carefully read/edit eggdrop.conf. Since 1999, the contents/options available have changed a lot.

I check my bot configuration file against all new releases to ensure it's up to date.

Read the step by step guide for Setting up an Eggdrop also.

oof, my version is old ;p

I suggest you update to the latest version eggdrop.

***Edited***
Try putting this code after the server module is loaded in your existing configuration file.

Code: Select all

# This is a Tcl script to be run immediately after connecting to a server.
bind evnt - init-server evnt:init_server

proc evnt:init_server {type} {
  global botnick
  putquick "MODE $botnick +i-ws"
  putquick "PRIVMSG authserv@services.gamesnet.net :identify username pass"
}
