if someones nick is _

mirc says invalid if for:

if ($nick == $chr(95))

and

if ($nick == _)

what can I do?

Are you sure you're using the correct $chr() or character? There is more than one underscore character available. Find something that nick says (or when the nick joins/parts/etc) and copy/paste the nick and then use that to get the $chr() value for it and try again.

You can copy the exact character and then use to get the numeric value for $chr().

gives me 95

* /if: insufficient parameters (line 24, script.mrc)

Please post the exact line. I recommend copy & paste so that there's no chance of you accidentally adding or removing characters in your post to make it different from what is in your code. I also recommend using the Code tags around the line so that spaces are preserved.

insufficient parameters would indicate one side of your IF statement is missing (or null). You might want to verify that everything in the IF evaluates to something. If you use $nick, make sure $nick has a value (echo -a Nick: $nick right above the IF line). If you have something else, include that in the echo. Test what you have in both sides of the IF statement. Both sides meaning- if (side 1 == side 2) {}

Beyond that, I'd suggest posting the entire event you're using and any associated aliases so someone can check it for errors.

That happens when you missed a curly bracket, which is what could have resulted that error:

Ignore the strikethrough part of what I said before. It's incorrect now that I look at it. The error doesn't occur in the case I mentioned.

yeah seems I messed up and removed too many { } when modifying the script - doh!

thanks guys

You can get away from receiving an error without brackets or parentheses in three ways, but you can't lose both of them:Or And Of course, the traditional way with both intact:It's always a good practice to include the brackets and parentheses whenever possible.
