Ahh, you mean a sort of rank system.

Ok I'll stick it on the "maybe" list and look at it.

Don't hold your breath though, there's a lot of other stuff on the "todo" list for Trivia 2000 and I rarely get time to spend on it these days so development is somewhat slow.

kk
a editable addon like this
I would set a title @ 30 or what ever points to "trivia noob" or whaterver
when the player got 30 points the bot running the script would tell the player that he was pormoted to "trivia noob" with out the ""
Then that title would be saved untill the next title level was set say @ 75 points to "trivia private" would like about 6 or 7 levels that are editable
for this great trivia script
thx in advance

Well I'm always open to suggestions with the script but don't actually understand what you mean, if you can explain it a bit more thoroughly for me, if I like the idea I'll stick it on my "to do" list for Trivia 2000.

Cheers

Ian

In a perfect world all the effort that scriptors put into detailed (clear and concise) instructions in their file headers will actually be read.

If that happened I guess we'd all be out of a "job".

nah, you'd still be guessing what nowadays eggdrop owners actually want

source scripts/trivia_2000v2.2.tcl
source scripts/art_lit
soruce scripts/entertainment
source scripts/geography
source scripts/history
source scripts/queen
source scripts/science_nature
source scripts/sport_leisure

the third line is wrong...its 'SOURCE' and not 'SORUCE'

Doesnt matter, its not called like that anyway, only the first line should be in the config file. The locations for the question files are all configured at the top of the script itself.

the file15, etc, errors are errors from open/close operations.. I'd dump the script if it has those kinds of errors. Plenty of better written trivia scripts available.

Thanks, I'll try not to take that too personally

In fairness though I never tested the script on Windows eggdrops and only ever ran it on "real" ones as I have no interest in winbots whatsoever.

However, there are many many people using my script on Windows bots with no problems whatsoever so it sounds more like a local issue on that machine.

By the way, my script may not be the best written script in the world in your opinion, but it is the number seven highest downloaded script from egghelp.org and has the highest downloads of any trivia quiz by a long way. I'll let the figures speak for themselves

something bad is always happening, when someone gets a answer right, and it shows: [18:51] Tcl error [answercheck]: error reading "file15": illegal operation on a directory

i look in it, and put a # to make it stop, but it still says it. plus it;s going in file order, like file 15, file 16 and so on

This sounds very familiar in another post somewhere:

You place everything regarding that trivia script into ~./scripts directory.

Edit the Tcl file (if at all required) so that it points to the necessary text files i.e "./scripts/geography.txt"

This works with Windrops and eggdrops.

i did something kinda like this C:\Trivia-Questions\geography.txt

and C://Trivia-Questions//geography.txt and they come out with:

[17:46] Tcl error [strip_colour_codes]: couldn't open "C:Trivia-Questionsentertainment.txt": no such file or directory

[17:43] Tcl error [strip_colour_codes]: couldn't open "C://Trivia-Questions//entertainment.txt": no such file or directory

i thought about putting \\ but i think that wont work.

Well it's clear, "no such file or directory." Put the files in the correct directory.

I edited the script, and i get [19:34] Tcl error [strip_colour_codes]: couldn't open "C:/Trivia-Questions/entertainment.txt": no such file or directory

I got that in there, and i got copys of them in the eggdrop bot folder scripts.
