Thank you... I'll do that

The best way would be to have trigger set to "[botnick]" and then do a replace of [botnick] ? Don't you think?

Then as you have just stated, this is not a bug.

The confgi file, and scripts are loaded, before eggdrop even attempts to connect to a server. This is due to the fact, that all user settable settings and information, needs to be collected before connecting to a server.

If your script relies on using the var $botnick, to setup a trigger, then surly the trigger is being setup premiturly.

If eggdrop doesn't known what nickname it is using (IE, primary or altnick), then your script is not cable of knowing what trigger to use.

Sugestions would be to setup the trigger after connected to the server, and it is known what the nickname is.

Look into using the "bind evnt", to trigger a script, designed to setup the trigger based on the current nickname.

I set my nick in my .conf file... surely that it correct?

There is no way to set it before the script loads... the botnick is set when the bot connects to a server, because it is a result of altnick and nick...

So, as stated, set botnick before it gets a chance to load the script.

Surely that is simple to see.

I know this, but the problem is that if you have a script that says

Code:

set trigger "$botnick"

in the top, (so it will be loaded once)

The variable $botnick won't contain anything....

$botnick is normaly defined in the config file.

However, when the bot loads withou the $botnick var being set, it will set it to a default of the primary nickname.

To get around it, add a "set botnick" line to the config file, with the value of the primary nickname.

I think I located the problem, the trigger is set to be "$botnick,"

but it seems that botnick is not defined when the bot is loaded, and only after the bot has been rehashed is that variable avaliable?

hi again, sorry for the delay, but I've been debugging so much and found the code that is the problem

Code:

if {($tigger_only_in_channel == 1 && $type == "channel" && [lindex $text 0] != $trigger) || ([lindex $text 0] != $trigger && $tigger_only_in_channel != 1)} {infoegg_debug "Left operation because no trigger was found, trigger was '$trigger', text was '$text'"return 0}code]Now, when the bot if first started... it issues the debug notice and terminates the function, but after I rehash it works fine... it does NOT terminate the function

I am guessing it is the pubm and msgm binds you need.

However, it's the rest of the script we need to see the problem.

We would need to see more of the script, to locate the problem.
