First off, why here in MQ2::help?
Well my problem is NOT a macro problem perse, nor a plugin problem, it may be both or none ...
In other words, it's so odd, i cant figure out where to post it.
And i def dont see an answer in the wiki..that said...heres the problem:

I recently installed MQ2IRC and it's pretty much working great.

I automated the loggin in to channels of my bots by puttin a snippet of code into botmain.inc.
This works fine.

Now comes the problem

If one of my bots log into EQ and the macro (genbot) starts via either the .cfg method, or if i use a hotkey (with /mac genbot mastername) they will NOT speak in the IRC channel.

However, and here comes the problem, if i MANUALLY type in EQ "/mac genbot mastername" it DOES work and they chat in IRC all the time.

Now i've tried countless combinations to see if it's random, but quite literally everytime i do it manually it works like a charm.
If i do it by loading via cfg or hotkey, it dont.

I do not change anything in the config or macro's between attempts and it comes out the same each time
What could be the problem?

grats on mentioning the wiki, but the instructions say you're supposed to put what you think the answer is on the wiki, where you think it should be..

ah, i thought that was only after/if you know the answer and it would help others.

I may actually have found the problem, which i'm testing now. if so i'll be sure to add this to the wiki lax

I'll clarify the instructions in a bit

K, i'm 99% sure i figured out the problem
Has to do with genbots sitaftercast command

Added it to the wiki,

A for effort, thank you.

For future reference I moved the steps to this wiki topic [[Help Forums]] and it should be easier to see that you should add to the wiki even if you dont know the answer. If not, edit the article for me

For my genbot/irc combo I just put all the crap I wanted to do in the startup in one of the default plugins, in the OnIncomingChat function.

My toons already connect to a default server chat channel when they load into EQ (/autojoin), so it made this run easier. Basically. once all my toons are in game I type the word "startup" into the chat channel, and they all initialize.

I have an irc.mac which connects to an local irc server that I setup to run, but any server should work.

Code: Select all

Sub Main

/docommand /iconnect server port ${Me.CleanName} #channel

/return

I forget if ${Me.CleanName} is the correct syntax, but if you run more than 1 toon on a box (which on occasion I do) then you will run into IRC name conflicts when they try to join the channel (IRC plugin will grab the last name from the INI file, so it will try to use the last name that was used. In essence, toons on the same box try to join the channel with the same name).

In the OnIncomingChat fuction of the plugin it just looks for me saying startup in my server channel. I don't have access to my code atm, so this is going to be pseudo style. Perhaps someone else can fill it in

Code: Select all

OnIncomingChat(something, something){
             If (strstr(line, "CharName tells <channelname>") && (strstr(line, "startup"){
                       /mac irc
                       /mac genbot mastername
              }



}

(You have to call a CMD function or something and pass the "/mac" stuff to it since it is in a plugin. I forget the syntax.

Once irc connection finishes and genbot loads, I send a message to my server channel /1 /i join #channelname

Now they are all connected and ready for commands. I am not sure why it doesn't join the channel even though I specify it in the mac.

So when it is all said and done, you load up all your toons into EQ, type startup, wait about 5 seconds, the /1 /i join #channelname and you are ready. I'm sure there is a better way, but this works for me.
