Chatrooms

[jedijones666]

Forgive me peeps, I have been pointed to this script and I think it will serve me well as I require a chat room where I can allow specific users rather than by profile type.

I am finding it difficult to set up though.

Please can someone explain where the members (people I want to allow to chat in a specific room) are added into the script (appologies if this is an obvious one)

Any help would be greatly welcome

Kindest regards

Please can someone explain where the members (people I want to allow to chat in a specific room) are added into the script (appologies if this is an obvious one)

do the following...
type !mkchat <ChatRoomName> ( example: !mkchat testroom )
type '!lock <ChatRoomName>' ( example: !lock testroom ) or pm testroom from the userlist with '!lock'
type '!invite <somenick>' ( example: '!invite Herodes' this will invite me (if I am connected to your hub..) )
repeat last command with any nikcs you require...
you are done...

Although I have never used the script I believe that this is the way it works...

Thanks for the feedback Herodes

Ok, I am now able to create a room, then lock it off.

The problem I seem to have now is that others are able to view chat in that room.

Here is  feedback from someone who has not been invited:

[14:53:04] <[-J?-]-??r?????> [14:41:37] <???$-m?mb??-?h??> *** Hello
- [14:41:37] <[-J?-]-??r??e??> Pigging out'......   PM later or leave a message   
- [14:41:38] <???$-m?mb??-?h??> *** Error: You're not a member here.

I also sent a message and asked him to pm me; he seen that message in the chat to and sent me a regular pm to inform me.

Question is; how do I set it so it is totaly private (only those in the member list can see it, and ofcourse chat there)?
Again, help would be most appreciated

Kindest regards

-- Default Locked Mode (on/off) - If on, only members/groups selected by owner are allowed.
	bLocked = "off",

Change the default lock mode to "on" and run the script again (deleting the old database)

Post ur progress after this change

Got it working fine now speedx, many thanks for the help.

Is it possible to set up more than one room?

Initially it gave the option in right click to "create" a room, which I have done.  However, now its in place. the option to create another is no longer available. 

Would it be a case of manually adding to the chatroom TBL file?   

This is was I have set up at the moment...

return {
   ["Th??d??-Z???-?h??"] = {
      ["owner"] = "[-J?-]-!J??J???666!?",
      ["members"] = {
         ["[-J?-]-']['h??d?r????"] = 1,
         ["[-J?-]-!J??J???666!?"] = 1,
         ["[-J?-]-?R??T?L?"] = 1,
         ["[-J?-]-??v?l??tch?"] = 1,
         ["[-J?-]-??r?????"] = 1,
      },
      ["name"] = "Th??d??-Z???-?h??",
      ["groups"] = {
      },
      ["locked"] = "on",
      ["autologin"] = "off",
      ["key"] = "$OpList Th??d??-Z???-?h??$$",
      ["hide"] = {
      },
   },
}

If this is where I am to add another room, please could some person in the know give me an example of how the TBL file should look, please.

Regards, and in anticipation

Is it possible to set up more than one room?

Ofcourse it is possible. You can add as many chatroom's as u want.
Use this command: !mkchat <chatroomname>  (eg: !mkchat gamers)

Would it be a case of manually adding to the chatroom TBL file?

No, you should never edit a .TBL file manually.

Initially it gave the option in right click to "create" a room, which I have done.  However, now its in place. the option to create another is no longer available.

hm..thru wich profile you were trying to create the chatroom?

[jedijones666]

Thanks for all your help speedx

Some general scripting problems with my all-in-one has been causing some headaches here, so testing has been made difficult.

But, with the help I have received on this forum I have successfully created two chat rooms )

Now to share another issue:

I have invited members for each of the two rooms.  Some members are allowed to chat in both.

The right click on the hub tab refers to one of these rooms.

Is it possible to have additional names of  rooms in the right click menu where a member belongs to both rooms?

Kindest regards
Posted on: 06 November 2006, 11:33:32I have just discovered, through a test client, that the right click menu on the hub tab is in place but none of the options are working (those options in the user list right click are fine)

I  have a problem with it running with the grimoire  all-in-one script, in that when the test client uses chat room commands from the right click it sends a script error to main:

11:41:08] C:\ptokax\scripts\Rincewind's Grimoire.lua:357: bad argument #1 to 'lower' (string expected, got nil)


Im guessing I may have to talk with rincewind on this but any help would be appreciated if poss.

[speedX]

eh..If I am not wrong thn u want the names of the chatrooms to come on the right click??

[jedijones666]

Yes please, on the hub tab,   then flyout the commands pertaining to each room

My problem with hubtab right click has not gone away though.   Although, it may not be too serious as it seems only a problem if I select the "show room members" option (script error as posted before).

I use Chatrooms v 4.14 - LUA 5.0/5.1 by Jiten I wanted some modifications in script as my subject says I wanna remove OPkey from charooms name.

Thank you 

[speedX]

Please post in the original thread instead of making new threads, please

And the solution to your request is:

-- Default Chatroom Key  (on/off)
	bKey = "on",

Change it to "off" and run the script again.

Is it possible that users who get in chatrooms can post and view messages in chatroom and each chatroom has its own database.
like
<!!FullHouse> Prathmesh has joined the room.

Let me guess the next wish
- Individual TriggerBot for each chatroom. How does that sound ?

You can follow speedX's hint. Though, this change will only be applied to the rooms created from that moment on.

Thus, for those that already exist you must disable the key.
You can do it through the right-click commands [user commands] or by typing in PM to each room: !key off

please help me some1, i want the above to be displayed as

Online : xxx1, xxx2, xxx3
Offline : zzz1, zzz2, zzz3, zzz4, zzz5, zzz6,

Search for [Commands.Members]'s table under tCommands' and replace it with this one:

[Commands.Members] = { 
	fFunction = function(user, data, tmp, to)
		local sType = ""
		if tmp.autologin == "on" then
			if next(tmp.groups)  then
				sType = sType.."This room is reserved for specific profile(s). Use !"..Commands.Status..
				" for more details."
			else
				sType = sType.."This room is public."
			end
		else
			sType = sType.."This room is private."
		end
		local sRep = ":\r\n\t"..string.rep("=",20).."\r\n\t"
		local n, na, offline, away, on = 0, 0, "Offline"..sRep, "Away"..sRep, "Online"..sRep
		for nick, stat in pairs(tmp.members) do
			if not GetItemByName(nick) then
				offline = offline..nick..", "
			elseif stat == 0 then
				away = away..nick..", "
			else
				na = na + 1
				on = on..nick..", "
			end; 
			n = n + 1
		end; 
		user:SendPM(to,"\r\n\r\n\t"..on.."\r\n\r\n\t"..offline.."\r\n\r\n\t"..away..
		"\r\n\r\n\t"..na.."/"..n.." active members.\r\n\tNote: "..sType)
	end,
	tLevels = { [-1] = 1, [0] = 1, [1] = 1, [2] = 1, [3] = 1, [4] = 1, [5] = 1, [6] = 1, },
	tRC = { "Show room members", "" }
},

Last but not the least, thank you speedX for your support in this thread while I was away [and will probably be ].

After editing, whn i do  +list in a room, nothing is displayed.
The script i use is already attached in my previous reply. Can u PLEASE have a look at it and edit the commands.members function for me ?
I have made some changes in the commands.

[Prathmesh]

Thats is solved though I need to del all the chatrooms and recreate them again.
Thanks all.

This chatroom script is Good but now my goal is to seek help and devlop chatroom with individual message board for each chatroom(unfortunately I know very less of lua  ). Usually users with the same aim are not online at a time hence to orignal purpose of chatrooms is not achived. If there will be individual message board for chat rooms pepple can join chatrooms and read the stuff they want and leave message for others...

I think it's easier to use a message board [guess that you already have one] and create threads related to each room where every user may leave messages.

I'm not saying that this can't be done but, in my point of view, it wouldn't fit much in the Chatrooms' skeleton. However, I'll think about your request.

[enigma]

Jiten u rock , Thanks a Lot. The script is working fine 

[jiten]

I'm glad it's working fine. You're welcome...

[Jorgo]

Hello, I've one little problem. Everything works as expected, except for when I want to create a chatroom via the right-click menu. In that case the !mkchat command is sent as pm to the user I right-clicked instead of main chat.

Can someone confirm this?

[Dessamator]

The script has been updated & that error is fixed.

[Jorgo]

Thanks!
