im in need of a timed event

2011-02-17T03:52:54-04:00

Ok, just figured it out, if the chan is reged and u are the owner u get ~ and when u join it sets u as +oq and as admin sets u as +oa so u always get the +o flag as op.

I had my auto op turned off so i had to manually set my self as owner thus i wasent getting the +o flag.

works fine now.

Thanks

...
i checked and it already says: set opchars "@&~"

These are correct for my server too but if u are a & or ~ ie: admin or founder it dont work.

It only works with ops, @ :/
I don't know what to say.

I just tried it with a bot of mine, in a channel I own.
The ircd is Unreal3.2.1
and I do not appear with @. I appear in my channel with ~.

In the partyline:
.tcl isop #mychan
Tcl: 1

So, the bot is detecting me as an op.

I'm sorry that it isn't working for you, and I wish I knew what else to tell you to try. If it is something simple, then it is escaping me at the moment.

For the switch error:

Code:

switch -nocase -- [lindex ..] {

"--" marks the end of options.

For the opchars issue, the opchars feature in Eggdrop is useless, it only works on the initial join of the bot, it doesn't even parse +a/+q changes. It's planned to be fixed, but in the meantime you can use a script like this which will provide you [isadmin] and [isowner] so you can use them in your code ({[isop $n $c] || [isadmin $n $c] || [isowner $n $c]}). It's adjusted for UnrealIRCd, if you have different modes you might need to adjust the "parsemodestr" procedure to account for other modes (raw 005 tells you about them).

Well, you have to start it with '.tssync on'

error i found with your code

Tcl error [switch:sync]: bad option "-nocase": must be -exact, -glob, -regexp, or --

Look in eggdrop.conf for:
set opchars "@"

If it is as above, then try changing it to:
set opchars "@&~"
and then .restart your bot.

...
Code:
if {[isop $nick ###1] == 1} {
well this works for ops in the channel ###1 but it does bnot work for any1 higher than chan ops.

Like say the user was a channel admin or channel founder then this if statement does not work :/
...

Something to check:

(for an example, go here: http://eggwiki.org/Eggdrop.conf )

Look in eggdrop.conf for:
set opchars "@"

If it is as above, then try changing it to:
set opchars "@&~"
and then .restart your bot.

There is a brief explanation there in that well commented eggdrop.conf that you can find online with the link above.

I hope this helps.

Code:

well this works for ops in the channel ###1 but it does bnot work for any1 higher than chan ops.

Like say the user was a channel admin or channel founder then this if statement does not work :/

Thanks

The {* */2 * * *} is correct, cos without the '/' it would be every day at 02:00.

Ya willyw, i already have them book marked
my way of learning is from the top to the bottom and making scripts as i go, but this timer thing i needed asap among a few other little events that i managed on my own with. The rest is learning and building to what ive already got.

Thanks for both u and caesar, its always good to get a starting point to work from, in my case it was timers lol

Thanks again
Gemster

P.S - hopefully u will see me here in the future helping others

Thanks willyw, i will defo take a look at them links and bookmark as ive wanted to learn tcl for months but everytime i start i get cut off by something i cant get past.
...

Keep reading, keep experimenting, and keep coming here when you get stuck.

but there are a few things i dont understand ...

bind pub n
switch:
lindex
split

Seeing the above, makes me highly recommend that you visit the Suninet TCL guide that I mentioned previously.
Here's the link again:
http://suninet.the-demon.de/
Three out of those four, are covered there.

That site is the kind that you can start at the beginning, and read everything, step-by-step, through to the end.
You can use that site for reference,... picking out what you want.... but for beginners, it really is a help to start at the beginning there, and let it guide you through.

Try it.

Thanks a lot guys,

Just a reply to the "0 * * * *" mask, after testing it i see that it does run at ever :00 past the hour

And the if statements makes the "switch" a lot more easyer to understand now

Well now im going to make another "bindcron" and try to use your code caesar

Just 1 question tho, what if i want it to run every 2 hours ?

Like this: {* */2 * * *}

Thanks

I used the 'n' flag on the 'pub' bind, not on cron. You can change the flag to whatever you wish, or replace it with '*' and add an if statement in the proc to allow channel operators to use it for instance.

I'm not 100% sure about that "0 * * * *" mask, theoretically it should execute at minute 0, and since there's only 1 minute 0 at every hour..

The 'switch' statement can be translated in 3 simple 'if' statements:

Code:

if {user input after the .tssync is on} {  #do this}if {user input after the .tssync is off} {  #do this}if {user input after the .tssync is not on nor off} {  #do this}
