Alright, thanks for the help. Its working now

Now, there's another problem..

I want to store all channels the bot will send a message to, to a text file, seperated by spaces, on one line.
But when i use "lappend" to add the channel to the list, it wont add it, although it does write the already existing channels to the file.

Here's the code:

Code:

proc statchans {arg channel} {    global statsfile    if {$arg == "r"} {      set fs [open $statsfile r]         gets $fs x        set statchans $x      close $fs      return $statchans  } elseif {$arg == "a"} {      set fs [open $statsfile r]        gets $fs x        set statchans $x      lappend statchans $channel      close $fs      set fs [open $statsfile w]        puts $fs $statchans      close $fs  }}

... and yes, $channel is a working variable.

The problem is in this line:

Code:

utimer 10 [check_op $nick $channel $host]

...which will, because of command substitution, be executed right at that moment and the return value from check_op will be executed 10 seconds later. This problem has been discussed before and a quick forum search should give you some working examples.

alright, here we go
This is not the entire script, but i think this is the most relevant part..:

Code:

proc addstats {nick host hand chan arg} {  global file handle channel statchans  set handle $hand  set channel [lindex $arg 0]  if {[validchan $channel]} {     putserv "NOTICE $nick :I already have a record for that channel.."    return 0  }  channel add [string tolower $channel]  utimer 10 [check_op $nick $channel $host]}proc check_op {nick channel host} {  global file  if {![isop $nick $channel]} {     channel remove $channel    putserv "NOTICE $nick :You must be an OP in $channel to request me!"    return 0  } else {      set fs [open $file a+]         puts $fs "### Channel added by $nick ($host) ###"         puts $fs ""        puts $fs "  Logfile=\"/home/aron/jabot/mel/logs/[string trim $channel ?#?].log\""        puts $fs "  Format=\"mIRC\""        puts $fs "  Network=\"quakenet\""        puts $fs "  OutputFile=\"/home/aron/public_html/[string trim $channel #].html\""        puts $fs ""        puts $fs " "      close $fs      mel_add +chan [string tolower $channel]      lappend statchans "$channel"  }}

Just for clearification, the problem is that the bot doesnt see the specified user as an OP when he joins the channel, which is why i wanted to create a delay, after which it will check. This is done with a 10 second utimer, but somehow, it wont work.

Thanks in advance

I tried timers, but it wont work

How are we supposed to correct your code when you don't show it to us?
Did you try a raw bind with that RPL_ENDOFWHO numeric I suggested?

yeah i already tried something with a delay (timers) , but it was the first time i actually used timers, and well.... the delay didnt work

I figure it must be about one line of code, but i cant seem to get a working delay.. Any ideas?

That's probably because you're checking [isop $the_dude] before the bot has recieved the entire /WHO list. (Triggered by a join bind?) Eggdrop does '/WHO #chan' upon joining a new channel to get its info about the people there and doesn't care about the /NAMES recieved

You can either wait a few moments for the RPL_ENDOFWHO (318), and then use [isop] or parse every RPL_NAMREPLY (353) recieved. (You get those no matter what and they arrive before the /WHO is even sent in most cases)
OR you could do it the lazy way and just add a slight delay after joining. (ugly hack IMO)

Im working on a script that allows users to type a certain trigger (!trigger , after which the bot joins the specified channel, and checks if the user is an OP.

If the user isnt an OP, the bot leaves again. The problem is that it wont recognize anyone as an OP, even though they are opped.

Thanks in advance.
