changing user name in userlist

[_Satan_]

is there something that can override the actual nick of a particular user and show it and shows something else in userlist  and in main chat too :D just for teasing

[Herodes]

Yes u can but as soon as his client sents another $MyINFO then you'll need to cover that up again ..

and possibly pm will not be working probably ... and also downloads may also have some problems ...

ofcourse there is a way to resolve those issues too..
but its gonna take bandwidth for that .. quite an amount of it  ;)

[_Satan_]

Since hub is on LAN bandwith is not a problem. Also ip is known . can not the nick be modified dynamically every time a message arrives. pms and downlads may use orignal nicks since it is a direct tcp connection between to clients Am i right???

[Herodes]

yep I understand what u mean ...

I'll be back with a script ... unless some1 else gets it first ... ;)

Seems that I've run into problems ...

tNicks = {

	}

function DataArrival(user, data)
	if strsub(data, 1,1) == "<" then 
		if tNicks[user.sName] then
			s,e, msg = strfind(data, "%b<>%s+(.*)")
			SendToAll("<"..tNicks[user.sName].."> "..msg)
			return 1
		end
	elseif strsub(data, 1,4) == "$To:" then
		s,e,toWho,fromWho,msg = strfind(data, "$To:%s(%S+)%sFrom:%s(%S+)%s%$%b<>%s(.*)|")
		if tNicks[fromWho] then
			frmHub:RegBot(tNicks[fromWho])	
			usr = GetItemByName(toWho)
			if usr then
				usr:SendPM(tNicks[fromWho], msg)
			end
			frmHub:UnregBot(tNicks[fromWho])
			return 1
		end
	end
end

that one dont work as intended ... I hope to work out its problems but all in good time ..

function DataArrival(user, data)
   if strsub(data, 1,1) == "<" then
      if tNicks[user.sName] then
         s,e, msg = strfind(data, "%b<>%s+(.*)")
         SendToAll("<"..tNicks[user.sName].."> "..msg)
         return 1
      end
..........................

by giving it a table to work with....
(this will NOT change their name in the users list.)
only change the main chat name.

tNicks = {
   ["Nick1"] = "RplaceNick1",
   ["Nick2"] = "ReplaceNick2",
   ["?ottledHat?"] = "GOD",
}

function DataArrival(user, data) 
   if strsub(data, 1,1) == "<" then 
      if tNicks[user.sName] then 
         s,e, msg = strfind(data, "%b<>%s+(.*)") 
         SendToAll("<"..tNicks[user.sName].."> "..msg) 
         return 1 
      end 
   end
end

hope this helps...

[BottledHate]

what is your command prefix????

ie: !, +, # ....

plug it into the "CommandPrefix"

CommandPrefix = "!"
tNicks = {

   ["Nick1"] = "RplaceNick1",
   ["Nick2"] = "ReplaceNick2",
   ["?ottledHat?"] = "GOD",
}

function DataArrival(user, data) 
   if strsub(data, 1,1) == "<" then 
      if tNicks[user.sName] then 
         s,e, msg = strfind(data, "%b<>%s+(.*)") 
         if strsub(msg,1,1) == CommandPrefix then return end
         SendToAll("<"..tNicks[user.sName].."> "..msg) 
         return 1 
      end 
   end
end
