BogusTrivia - No questions loaded

2017-01-14T07:18:37-04:00

Finally worked out what i "messed up" on.

I changed the start from .t2 !Qstart, however i didn't follow the guide completely missed this.

# "!" = change all . prefixes to ! (or any other character) #

Working great now. Thank you for the support.

...
set t2(mflag) "m|m" ;# flags for /msg commands (.add .mix) #

and do have a m in my flag on whois
...

Ok. Good. Those are off the list of things to check.

This may sound silly but - is the script loaded?
Do:
.binds *add*

to list all the binds with "add" in them.
Is the bind that you need, listed?
And if it is, note the Hit counter. Is it incrementing, every time you try the command?

Willyw thank you so much for replying to my issue.

I have done the checks you have suggested.

Yes i have

set t2(mflag) "m|m" ;# flags for /msg commands (.add .mix) #

and do have a m in my flag on whois

I am at a loss right now. Going to try another shell to see if that will help me.

Thank again.

While you wait for Spike himself to see your post, here's something to check:

Log into your bot's partyline.
Do: .channel #channelname
where #channelname is a channel that you are currently in, with the bot.
You'll get a list of everyone in the channel.
Examine your line. Does the bot recognize you as owner? If it does, it will display your handle in the Handle column, and there will be an N on your line.

Next, see t-2.settings.tcl
Find this line:
set t2(mflag) "m|m" ;# flags for /msg commands (.add .mix) #

In that example, you'd need to have the m flag.
Do: .whois
to see what your current flags are.

Lastly:

however nothing happens just sits there.

Just so you know - if it cannot find a Q&A file to load, it will respond with:

No New Question Files Found....

in a pm to you. Well, that is if it recognizes you so that it can accept the command.

Anyway, there's a couple things that you can confirm for now, while you wait.

BogusTrivia - No questions loaded

Hope to get some advice on this problem.

I have installed the Bogustrivia as per instructions provided. The bot loads into channel. How ever when i type !Qstart (changed from .t2) to start the bot i get the message "BogusTrivia: No questions loaded."

I have tried added some that have been provided by typing

/msg (botnick) .add

however nothing happens just sits there.

Can anybody problem some advice on this. I have reinstalled a complete fresh copy.

Thanks Digs
