Forums Scripts & Popups timers

Hi guys im on a network called spcn where their roomnames are like %#MysticHaven

on *:mode:#: timer 1 1 echo $!chan(3) $1-

then it echos in the status window, does anyone know why?

Without joining that network, I can't test this, but your post about the % character being part of the channel name might be the cause, since the channel in the ON JOIN event is being specified as a # channel, not a %# channel. Try changing the # in the ON JOIN event to a *

:#: works for all channels including &channel and %#channel

ok.. so much for my idea then.

What does it actually echo in the status window?

Hmm, I joined this network, and I can't seem to get it to echo to the status window. Also, why are you echoing it to channel 3? Why not just use: timer 1 1 echo $!chan $1-?

The way you are echoing the timer back to you is completly fine and it should NOT go to your status window unless you modified the echo alias. Even if $chan(3) is null it should still return into a channel window and not status window
