something like this?

2004-12-15T17:55:39-04:00

Code:

bind msg - hello msg:helloproc msg:hello {n u h a} {*msg:hello $n $u $h $aif {![validuser $h]&&[validuser [finduser $n!$u]]} {# created...do what ever you need to do}}

i see what your saying... however my eggy is currently set up to learn users only when they register with it via the hello command. I can check if they are a valid user on join, but would not be able to change a variable in the user record until they actually went thru the process. Is there a way i can call a procedure upon creation of the user record?

bind join and initialize their credit upon creation of the user record

okay, i have most of my script done .. i just have one more question. i would like to initialize the credit variable in the userfile when a new user signs up... just to give them a base amount of credit to start out with.. what would be the best way to go about this?

all you need is in tcl-commands.doc

use the XTRA field of user record to store custom data (beware that its length is limited)

thanks for all your help thus far is there a way to add a new entry-type to a user record in the userfile? I have looked a reference on how to manipulate user records, but have been only able to find a short list of commands, are there any better (more in depth) resources on this?

userfile is the obvious and convenient choice (if you don't expect to have too many users to maintain credit of; otherwise, you may need to resort to external files or database)

thanks!

you're right when you break it down like that it does seem easier. I guess the only real questions i have left is where would be the ideal place to store the credit that the users accrue, and how would i access that data from all of the scripts?

i.e: if i create a function to control the running of a script via public trigger (how would i access the users credit)? and if i were to create a function to reward users for winning games, chan-idel... etc... (where would be the best place to store the credit? userfile perhaps???)

anything can be done, once you have defined what your requirements are - namely, credit awarding criteria and triggers that need to be controlled

if something like this does not already exist... can it be done? and if so would someone be so kind as to give me a few good coding references.

Can anyone tell me if there is a script that will give the eggdrops users credit for doing certain things... winning games, chan-idling, most words spoken.. etc.... I am really looking for something to protect certain public triggers from being used unless the user is willing to spend the required amount of credit to use the trigger. I imagine some of these attributes are probably used in rpg bots, but I am personally unfamiliar with them, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

thanks
