Hi all.
The Hub network for which I am a hub owner in have decided to implement a multihub chat script. We have decided to go with a BCDC script in order to join all of our main chats. The problem we are having is as follows...
The script acts as a relay sending the chat to the other hubs. If somebody in Hub1 types a message, the text in Hub2 is preceeded by the Bots nick. The nick seems to be the same in all hubs even if we change it in each hub. We wish to have different nicks for the client in each hub so that we are able to assertain where the user is talking from. In Hub2 it would come up as
User message. Now if a user in Hub2 was to type a message it would also come up as User message and not User message.
I hope I am making sense. Here is a copy of the script we are using...
Quote--// vim:ts=4:sw=4:noet
--//
--// the second argument decides in which order the scripts are run
--// use numbers when you need order, else you can just use a _unique_ identifier
CHATS = { ["-=UCDC-OC=-"]=1 }
BOTS = { ["-=UCDC-Sec=-"]=1 }
CHANGE= { ["-=UCDC-OC=-"] = "-=UCDC-OC=-", ["-=UCDC-OC=-"]="-=UCDC-OC=-" }
dcpp:setListener( "chat", "mchat",
function( hub, user, text )
local othernick = user:getNick()
if BOTS[othernick] == nil then
local s,e,fromhub = string.find(hub:getHubName(), "(%()%d")
fromhub=string.sub(hub:getHubName(),1,s-2)
fromhub = string.gsub(fromhub, "Hub1", "TGA")
for k,v in dcpp._hubs do
if v:getId() ~= hub:getId() then
v:sendChat("<"..othernick.."> "..text)
end
end
end
end
)
dcpp:setListener( "pm", "mchat",
function( hub, user, text )
local othernick = user:getNick()
local s,e,fromhub = string.find(hub:getHubName(), "(%()%d")
fromhub=string.sub(hub:getHubName(),1,s-2)
DC():PrintDebug(text)--.." "..msg)
if CHATS[othernick] then
fromhub = string.gsub(fromhub, "Hub2", "TGA")
for k,v in dcpp._hubs do
if v:getId() ~= hub:getId() then
local to = v:getUser(othernick)
to:sendPrivMsgFmt("<"..fromhub.."> "..text)
end
end
end
end
)
DC():PrintDebug( " ** Loaded chat.lua **" )
If you can see what the problem is could you please let us know. Also, this is going to have to be run over 5 hubs in total so this script needs some work. If you can recommend a better script that doesn't require the BCDC Client please let me know...
Many thanks.
hi m8.
theres a few different chat links try searching the forum..
or you could use the link feature in Xsthetic Netserver.
d/l from my sig
There are other choices... checking links in signatures is a good idea ???Hawk???
