Hey guys take a look at the following code

--bot name
local bot="User Alert"
local desc="I give ops alert about user login"

OnStartup = function()
Core.RegBot(bot,desc,"user@domain.com",true)
end

UserConnected = function(user)
local time=os.date("%B %d %Y %I:%m %p")
local msg="\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tUSER ALERT\r\n"
msg=msg.."\t\t\t\t\t\tUser "..user.sNick.." logged in the hub at "..time.."\r\n"
msg=msg.."\t\t\t\t\t\twith the IP "..user.sIP.."\r\n"
Core.SendToOpChat("<"..bot.."> "..msg.."|")
end



Its a simple script wich i wanted and i tried on it myself. its a simple script where the scripts sends a message to the ops.

now the problem here is in the message the Date wich i retrieve with the function
local time=os.date("%B %d %Y %I:%m %p")

this time remains static
it never changess
And also it runs only for one user the first to login the hub..
can ne1 tell me the reason n also how to correct it!.

thanks in advance

Can you give an example of the formatted time as the user sees it ? I'm not familiar with all the parameters.
Mind you that you use only UserConnected, therefor this script is only triggered when unregistered users enter, this seems to be your purpose, just making sure.

What you could try is the table returned by os.date("*t")
For that I'd suggest the following changes:

Change
local time=os.date("%B %d %Y %I:%m %p")


to
local tTime = os.date("*t")


and change
msg=msg.."\t\t\t\t\t\tUser "..user.sNick.." logged in the hub at "..time.."\r\n"


to
msg=msg.."\t\t\t\t\t\tUser "..user.sNick.." logged in the hub at "..Ttime.hour..":"..tTime.min..":"..tTime.sec.."\r\n"


The default format for os.date() without parameters is date + time

Here is the message wich the ops used to get with the earlier script

                                                               USER ALERT
						User asshole logged in the hub at July 03 2008 04:07 PM
						with the IP **.**.***.***


and after doin the changes as u said the script aint displayin any message at alll


so wat change do i need to do to make this work for all users (registered n unregistered)

thnx :)

As an addition for satya, the tTime table holds more values if you would want them.

Quote from: http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html
if format is the string "*t", then date returns a table with the following fields: year (four digits), month (1--12), day (1--31), hour (0--23), min (0--59), sec (0--61), wday (weekday, Sunday is 1), yday (day of the year), and isdst (daylight saving flag, a boolean).
