Forums Scripts & Popups what is the script for a random user?

what is the code for a random user? i know $nick is the last user to type, but how do i say a random user's nick with code?

here is an example for the

so, where would i put that?

I don't need to change anything on there right?

And would %allnicks wherever i put it in the script be replaced by a random user?

You shouldn't need to change anything, presuming you want to use the sline with the random nick. %allnicks holds the total number of nicks currently in the channel.

Read /help Nick and Address Identifiers
then scroll down to the $nick(#,N/nick,aohvr,aohvr) entry

if you want to you can put it in popups.ini for the channel
[code]
-
Select Allnicks:var %allnicks = $nick(#,0) , %i = 1 | sline # $nick(#,$r(1,%allnicks))
-

or in aliases.ini
alllnicks var %allnicks = $nick(#,0) , %i = 1 | sline # $nick(#,$r(1,%allnicks))

or in remotes
alias alllnicks var %allnicks = $nick(#,0) , %i = 1 | sline # $nick(#,$r(1,%allnicks))

for either alias use /allnicks

for the popups just right click the channel and choose "Select allnicks" by clicking on it

Code goes in remotes (alt+r) and is used in a channel as $randuser.

Examples:
//msg $chan Hello, $randuser
//me slaps $randuser around a bit with a large trout

BTW, MikeChat you have an unused variable (%i) in your code and it could be shortened similar to mine, though I wasn't sure he wanted to select a nick (he said "say") so I offer another solution.

good points, I started out thinking of a loop and didnt clean it up very well.
and you are right that the OP said "say" rather than "select" , all I can say is "Oops"
