Throttling outbound messages

Post by fbarton »

I'm trying to throttle messages being sent from my eggdrop, and from what I've discovered, it would seem that I'd need a script that manages the queue

I've got a few commands that can spit up to 10 lines at a time when triggered (it's a faq type system). and i'm trying to avoid the ominous excess-flood notification.

My idea would be to limit outbound messages to, for example, 2 every second.

i kinda doubt you would need a separate script to accomplish this. Using puthelp rather than putquick or even putserv will slow down the rate that the bot spits out info.
