on join send message and log user ??? - mIRC Discussion Forums

I know there is a way to make an on join message but is there a way after sending the message that it logs the name so it will NOT send them that message next time they join?

Example
bob joins #chan1
<mybot> hello bob if you need help with bots type !help and I will private message you the bots commands ***This is a one time message but you can use !help at any time***
jane joins #chan1
<mybot> hello jane if you need help with bots type !help and I will private message you the bots commands ***This is a one time message but you can use !help at any time***
Bob left #chan1
2 days later bob joins but the bot knows he was sent the message already so does not send the message.

any idea? also I would like to manually add people that already know the commands and do not need to get this message

Just a thought, why not write the join nicks to text and use a halt if nick isin

Code:

on *:JOIN:#: {
  if ($nick isin $read(nicks.txt,w,$+(*,$nick))) { halt }
  else /write nicks.txt $nick
  /msg # your text
}

This has been done before. Use the search feature.

Code:

on !1:join:#chan1,#chan2:{
  var %x = $hget(welcomed. $+ $chan,0).item
  while (%x) {
    if ($hget(welcomed. $+ $chan,%x).item iswm $fulladdress) {
      return
    }
    dec %x
  }
  hadd -mu1800 welcomed. $+ $chan $wildsite
  .notice $nick Welcome to $+($chan,!)
}

That will send a message once every 30 minutes, and match their hostmask instead of nickname. Of course, you'll need to change #chan1,#chan2 to your channel, and add it to your remotes (ALT + R).
You can change the "hadd -mu1800 ..." to "hadd -mu86400 ..." for 24 hours, etc. The number is in seconds, so you'll have to calculate it a bit to find the value.

1. Their hostmask is not shown that is why I said name.
2. I did use search.
3. Just because you THINK someone did not use search does not mean they did not use it.

2. Explain to me how their hostmask is not shown.
3. Just because you're too lazy to change a few lines of code and/or you're not intelligent enough to understand a simple scripting language does not mean you should be rude to people for attempting to help you.

Edit: Forgot to add your quote for added effect.

I was trying to be rude you came across as rude with your comment

It has been a long times since I scripted in Mirc I have forgotten allot and allot has been added.

as for search I looked thru all 201 search results (some are on the same thread)

on this server you see your own host mask for everyone

example
my hostmask is say mcownage@200.200.200.200
when I do a whois or they join i see bob(mcownage@200.200.200.200)
/whois bob
bob is mcownage@200.200.200.200 * McOwnage (this is always the person that does the whois info the rest is the person ya did whois to
bob on #chan1 #chan2 .#chan3
bob using random.fakeserver.net fakename Chat Service
bob is a registered nick
bob has been idle 1hr 43mins 36secs, signed on Fri Apr 06 19:22:27
bob End of /WHOIS list

don't ask how they set that up but they did

See? Isn't it easier to communicate to other people when we're polite?
You can simply change:

Code:

on !1:join:#chan1,#chan2:{
  var %x = $hget(welcomed. $+ $chan,0).item
  while (%x) {
    if ($hget(welcomed. $+ $chan,%x).item iswm $fulladdress) {
      return
    }
    dec %x
  }
  hadd -mu1800 welcomed. $+ $chan $wildsite
  .notice $nick Welcome to $+($chan,!)
}

to:

Code:

on !1:join:#chan1,#chan2:{
  var %x = $hget(welcomed. $+ $chan,0).item
  while (%x) {
    if ($hget(welcomed. $+ $chan,%x).item iswm $fulladdress) {
      return
    }
    dec %x
  }
  hadd -mu1800 welcomed. $+ $chan $gettok($address($nick,0),1,64) $+ @*
  .notice $nick Welcome to $+($chan,!)
}

Then, if you want to save the data, you can use (will keep data intact after you restart the bot):

Code:

on !1:join:#chan1,#chan2:{
  if (($hget(welcomed. $+ $chan) == $null) && ($isfile($scriptdirjoinsg.hsh)) {
    hload -bi welcomed. $+ $chan $qt($scriptdirjoinmsg.hsh) $chan
  }
  var %x = $hget(welcomed. $+ $chan,0).item
  while (%x) {
    if ($hget(welcomed. $+ $chan,%x).item iswm $fulladdress) {
      return
    }
    dec %x
  }
  hadd -mu1800 welcomed. $+ $chan $gettok($address($nick,0),1,64) $+ @*
  hsave -bi welcomed. $+ $chan $qt($scriptdirjoinmsg.hsh) $chan
  .notice $nick Welcome to $+($chan,!)
}

You can remove the "u1800" (1800 seconds until the join message can be sent again), if you want the message to be sent only once.

First Thank you I took your statement wrong after I re-reading it i see it was not rude I am SORRY
just got home from work put script in and get this when someone joins
* /if: invalid format (line 12, script.ini)
line 12 is

Code:

  if (($hget(welcomed. $+ $chan) == $null) && ($isfile($scriptdirjoinsg.hsh)) {

been a while but may be missing a ) I count 14 ( and 13 ) between the first { and last } but no clue where to put the 14th )

I tried adding one here on this line

Code:

  if (($hget(welcomed. $+ $chan) == $null) && ($isfile($scriptdirjoinsg.hsh))) {

but nothing happens (no error no message)

Code:

on !1:join:#channel1,#chan2:{
  if (($hget(welcomed. $+ $chan) == $null) && ($isfile($scriptdirjoinsg.hsh))) {
    hload -bi welcomed. $+ $chan $qt($scriptdirjoinmsg.hsh) $chan
  }
  var %x = $hget(welcomed. $+ $chan,0).item
  while (%x) {
    if ($hget(welcomed. $+ $chan,%x).item iswm $fulladdress) {
      return
    }
    dec %x
  }
  hadd -mu1800 welcomed. $+ $chan $gettok($address($nick,0),1,64) $+ @*
  hsave -bi welcomed. $+ $chan $qt($scriptdirjoinmsg.hsh) $chan
  .notice $nick Welcome to $+($chan,!)
}

This is working for me, and you can do:
/hadd welcomed.#channel nickname!*@*/*!ident@*
then /hop to have it never send a message to anyone matching that mask. If you removed the u1800, then you should remove joinmsg.hsh, and type [/b]/hfree -w welcomed.*[/b], to clear all the lists, incase something was added. Alternatively, you can put your bot in a new channel, and join there to see if it works or not.

That worked Thank you allot
