I've checked tcl-commands.doc and it contains no such information regarding this. As mentioned bind nick triggers on a channel scripts and won't work outside a channel if the bot changes its own nick.

Further more, can there be a bind raw? is it possible? bind raw to a specific ircd raw number/key/event?

How to bind nick outside a channel? (bot's nick change)

2004-09-10T15:18:07-04:00

How can I trigger a bind nick change outside a channel. A nick change not in any channel but when the bot changes its nick, the variable $botnick.

Is there anyway to trace when the bot changes its nick, when its not on any channel?

I know an alternative method; to make a continuous utimer loop to check if $botnick matches my defined nick or not, but the utimer will put alot of stress on the bot as it will be running 24/7 with very small intervals of time as I need the bind nick to react at instantly.

Any suggestions?
