Forums Scripts & Popups Room count on join

I'm still a major n00b when it comes to this. I want to make a script that tells me what the number of people are when a person joins

for example

blah has joined the room (3)

bleh has joined the room (4)

bluh has joined the room (1)

;This will update your IAL when you join your channel.
on me:*:JOIN:#your_chan_name: who $chan

On !*:join:#your_chan_name: echo -at $nick has joined the room $+($chr(40),$nick($chan,0),$chr(41))

There's really no need to update the IAL for this. mIRC will still know the number of people in the channel without it.

Actually, in the on JOIN event, mIRC doesn't know. Not until all the names have been read. As for manually updating the IAL like gemeau suggested - that's not needed. When you join a channel and the IAL is on, it will be automatically updated. All you need to do is change the script to be trigered by the raw event that indicates the /End of names. Don'ty recall the numeric atm.

raw number:*: echo -a You have joined $2 with $nick($2,0)users.

PS: since I'm not at home, I can't test it, but if I recall correctly, $2 is the channel.

But that isn't what he asked for.

What he asked for was a count for when other people joined the room, not for when he joined the room, mIRC most certainly does know the number of people then.

In this case $nick(#channel,0) should do the trick.
Or in the case of an on join event: $nick($chan,0)
