Forums Scripts & Popups Script help - send chatline to channel every x sec

Hello! I would like some help with creating a script that sends a chatline into a channel every 15 sec. Because I get disconnected alot, due to my isp I think this would help to actually disconnect me from the network so I can rejoin right away. Instead of being disconnected, when everything looks fine. To find out 10 minutes later that I've been disconnected the whole time, and thus not recieved any sent chat lines from other people.

So: Send chatline into #channel-x every x sec.

try using this:

Code:

ON *:CONNECT: { .timer[check_status] 0 15 msg #CHANNEL-X This is the sending text for every 15 seconds }

I'd recommend using rather than to ensure that you are able to send a message to the channel.
Also remember to turn the timer off if you leave the channel, or you could end up with a mess of "Can not send to #channel-X" messages in your status window.

Seems like it isn't working. I am supposed to put it in the under remote right (alt+r)?

Yep.

Tried both versions now but it's not working. Any idea why?

Are your remotes turned on? If you don't know, type /!remote on

If that doesn't resolve the problem, look at your status window to see if there's an error message.

* Remote is on (Ctcps,Events,Raw)

No error messages in the status window.

Actually it works now! No idea what I did, more than restarting it (I had tried that before as well). Thanks guys!

Could be you were just impatient. When a timer starts, the command on the timer (in this case the message) doesn't go out immediately, but after the specified delay (in this case, 15 seconds).

What on Earth does that do?
