Since your eggdrop has not yet completed the connection and handshake with the irc server, at the time the code is executed, your eggdrop hasn't gained it's nickname yet.

::botnick will always contain the current nickname the eggdrop holds on the server, and is thus empty until it has gained a nickname.

Hello there,

I've a small trouble I can't understand whith a script I'm doing.
It contains an init procedure which is called at the end of the script, and inside I use $::botnick.

When I start, or restart, the eggdrop, I got the following error:

Code:

[09:09] can't read "::crelay::regg()": no such element in array    while executing"array set me $::crelay::regg($::botnick)"    (procedure "::crelay::init" line 5)    invoked from within"::crelay::init"

But if I comment the auto-load and launch the procedure from party-line, it works fine.
So, what is the trouble, when is $botnick setted ?
