Load this and "RESTART" your bot. The reason you have so many messages is your NOT restarting your bot. A restart is required to change binds.

Here's the script:

set the_chan "#EPL"bind pub - -footie EPL bind time - "01 00 * * *" EPL proc EPL {min hour day month year} { putlog "football timer active" puthelp "PRIVMSG $::the_chan :STATS UPDATED: www.EPLonline.co.uk/chanstats/stats.html" } putlog "football_stats loaded!"

Though its suppose to write only once, at 00:01 ?

game_over: There's no need for the full namepath in that case, as the command is already executed at a global context.

Doggo, you're quite right. Must've read the request as 1am

Football, do you get any error messages logged? Given the issue with the malformed mask, did you get any output at 1am instead (notice, errors, or other)?

But does it work for you with the bind time?

I mean set it to a certain time and see if that works, so far it hasn't worked for me.

You've got a problem with variable context: you define the_chan in a global context, yet try to read it as a local variable within EPL..
Either use the global command to link the two, or use full namepath addressing when reading the variable ($::the_chan instead of $the_chan).

A third option would be to skip the variable alltogether, and hardcode the channelname into the proc.

oops forgot about the :: for variables

Code:

set the_chan "#fr3ddy" bind pub - -footie EPLbind time - "* * * * *" EPL proc EPL {min hour day month year} { putlog "football timer active" puthelp "PRIVMSG $::the_chan :STATS UPDATED: www.EPLonline.co.uk/chanstats/stats.html" }

i added a -footie trigger for testing and set the timer for every minuite after working fine here.....

on the channel announces on -footie and every one min

Code:

[10:26am]  -footie[10:27am]  STATS UPDATED: www.EPLonline.co.uk/chanstats/stats.html[10:27am]  STATS UPDATED: www.EPLonline.co.uk/chanstats/stats.html[10:28am]  STATS UPDATED: www.EPLonline.co.uk/chanstats/stats.html[10:29am]  STATS UPDATED: www.EPLonline.co.uk/chanstats/stats.html[10:30am]  STATS UPDATED: www.EPLonline.co.uk/chanstats/stats.html

and on the partyline

Code:

[10:26am]  [10:28] football timer active[10:27am]  [10:29] football timer active[10:28am]  [10:30] football timer active[10:29am]  [10:31] football timer active[10:30am]  [10:32] football timer active

and wouldnt the time bind be

Code:

"01 00 * * *"

for 00:01 ?

Hey nml375,

Thanks for the reply.

Have you tested those scripts?

I`ve tried them, they don't seem to work either.

So how should the script look?

set the_chan "#EPL"

bind time -|- "*00 01 * * *" EPL

proc football {min hour day month year} {
putlog "football timer active"
puthelp "PRIVMSG $the_chan :STATS UPDATED: www.EPLonline.co.uk/chanstats/stats.html"
}

putlog "football_stats loaded!"

thats the script

and on eggdrop.conf;

source scripts/statsupdate.tcl

that'll work right?
