Forums Scripts & Popups little explanation+help needed

code is in alias

i know baisacly what it does
but i dont understand why did author made so many $users
couldn't it be easier to make /raw -q mode # -v $1-29 ?

and why somewhere it is use /mode # and somewhere /raw -q, isnt that the same ?

No, because you need as many v's as nicks you have. So /raw -q +v $1-29 would actually only voice the 1st nick.

The author used so many $N because they didn't know how many people the user wanted to Op/Deop, etc.. In the code that follows you have the server's maximum modes: $modespl - which changes from net to net.

One work around could be:
You can copy/paste this code as many times as you want: OP, DEOP, VOICE, DEVOICE, etc..

Another one could be: (no limitations)


Things you need to change:
The alias name -> op, deop, etc..
If the code is a DEx (DEop, DEvoice, DEhelp), change that + for a -
Change that o for the respective letter of the usermode: v = voices, h = hop, o = op, etc..

Hope this helps

Zyzzyx.

thanks, must admit that your code is much much nicer to look =)

yw and thanks

ehm.. btw can you pls look at that "mode" post last time ?

Hi Zyzzy,

the alias you suggested was fine, though the script will not process any amount of nicks that are higher than $modespl. Also the user had to make an alias for each mode, which is a bit redundant.


Usage: /massmode -|+ o|h|v [nicks]


The alias is designed to be used in a popup, but can of course be used manually as well, by specifying the nicks. Anyway, as stated, your solution is fine, I just wanted to add some extra value to it.

That's a cool alias I'm just curious about sth:
while $gettok(%y,1- %x,32) { mode # $+($1,$str($2,%x)) $v1 | %y = $deltok(%y,1- %x,32) }

Why the $gettok(%y,1- %x,32) and then the $deltok(%y,1- %x,32)?

Hi,

Ok suppose you select 6 nicks, and the modespl allows for 2.

Var %x = 2, %y = one two three four five six

while $gettok(%y,1- %x,32) { … | %y = $deltok(%y,1- %x,32) }

First iteration: I get the first two nicks, “one two”, with gettok and range 1-%x (1-2). I do the mode on them, and then delete the first two nicks with deltok. Remaining nicks in %y: three four five six

Second iteration: I get the first two nicks, “three four”, with gettok and range 1-%x (1-2). I do the mode on them, and then delete the first two nicks with deltok. Remaining nicks in %y: five six.
…

So instead of looping through the %y, I actually just keep taking the first two nicks, and deleting them, until there’s no nicks left.

Another approach would be to loop through %y and keep changing the ranges, like: 1-2,3-4,5-6. However then you need to increment 2 extra vars e.g. %n and %m to represent the new range with each iteration. %x can't be used for this, because %x needs to remain at its value for the $str(...,%x)

Anyway, as always, there are multiple ways to achieve something, and that day I felt like going for this particular approah, hehe.

Cya!

Ohh, clever thanks!

No problem.

You're always welcome to ask anything. It's one of the best ways to learn new tricks.
