Self Registration Script

[catwo]

Hi is the following possible?

1.   User Types command !Regme in main chat.
2.   Script kicks in and checks to see if the user is at or below the maximum allowed hubs e.g 10 and if so auto registers the user with their nick including a predifiend prefix [XXX] and also generates a password for them.  (If the max hubs is to high then the script tells the user e.g. "Max hubs allowed here is 10, you are currently in 12 hubs, please reduce to 10 then retype !regme in main chat).  However, if all is ok the script then tells the user to add the registration details to their settings and rejoin hub.

If this is possible? would someone please have a go at writing it for me.  Your help would be most appreciated as my OPs and I are not always at our PCs and users get frustrated as I only allow registered users to search and download.  Thanks in advance for any help or info.

Thanks again Dessamator for your prompt reply and your script work its much appreciated.  It doesn't seem to work for my hub though, i'm using Ptokax 03.3.0 build 16.9 debug with Esthetic netserver V8-5. Any ideas please? Once again many thanks for your help.

[Dessamator]

hmm, any errors??, i tested it thoroughly it should work even in that version of the ptokax. i didnt use anything new !

[catwo]

No error messages just don't work.  :(

[Dessamator]

well i tested it with ptokax 16.09, it didnt give me any errors, yaps found the prob, its with the xthetic server, it also has a regme command, the way to solve it, is to put "my" script above his, in the ptokax, move it up !!

Good Luck !

[catwo]

Yes! That solved it m8 many thanks for your help and assistance much appreciated. :D

[Dessamator]

ur welcome,  :]

[catwo]

Dessamator any chance of an edit to the script so that if they already have the prefix [XXX] the script doesn't generate another one?  At the moment i have some users with names like [XXX][XXX]Dessamator.  Thanks in advance for any help.

[Dessamator]

hmm, it shouldnt happen unless the the user isnt regged, but ok ill change the script asap

Give this a try:

-- By Dessamator
-- Simple Regme bot with hub checker
-- Prefix checker by jiten

bot = frmHub:GetHubBotName()
Maxhubs = 10

function ChatArrival(user,data)
	local data = string.sub(data,1,-2)
	local s,e,cmd =string.find(data, "%b<>%s+(%S+)")
	local Prefix = "[XXX]"		-- Set your prefix here
	if cmd == "!regme" then
		if string.find(string.lower(user.sName),string.lower(Prefix)) then Prefix = "" end
		local pass=math.random(os.date("%H%M%S"))
		if not(user.bRegistered) and not ( frmHub:isNickRegged(Prefix..user.sName) ) and user.iHubs < Maxhubs then
			AddRegUser(Prefix..user.sName, pass, 3)
			user:SendData(bot,"U've been registered with the Nick :"..Prefix..user.sName.." and password:"..pass)
		elseif user.iHubs > Maxhubs then
			user:SendData(bot,"Max hubs allowed here is "..Maxhubs..", you are currently in "..user.iHubs.." hubs, please reduce to "..Maxhubs.." then retype !regme in main chat")
		else
			user:SendData(bot,"You are Already Registered")
		end
		return 1
	end
end

hmm?, i didnt understand ur post, the "odd one registering "?????

[catwo]

Sorry m8 i'll try again.  I get the odd user registering in hub but they dont have the [XXX] prefix.  e.g. when i look in the registered users list i see catwo instead of [XXX]catwo and catwo is showing as (REG) in the user list.

Testing it some minutes ago with both type of nicks and it's working well.
Btw, did that user reconnect with the new nick or just registered himself?

Cheers

[catwo]

They are showing in user list as {REG} without the prefix and when i look in Ptokax OPs/Bans registered users they are showing in the list without the [XXX] prefix?

[Dessamator]

hmm, i also tested it try copying the script again, the last one shouldnt have any bugs
