Welcome Message - mIRC Discussion Forums

I was wondering if there was a script that set up that would automatically greet a nick when he/she enters a channel that I am part of?

If there is could anyone tell me where I can find it and how to install it. I am very new to scripting

Code:

on !*:JOIN:[color:green]#channel[/color]:{
  msg # Welcome to # $nick
}

What do I change to make a custom welcome message? The "Welcome To"?

Also when I put this scripts into the remote area of mIRC do I put it exactly as I see it with all the breaks and spaces? I copied one before and it put it automatically as one long line of text.

The spacing will be done automatically by mIRC if you put the line breaks in the right place.

is there a way of editing that so it does a /me command rather then saying it?

ie)

*Gararion watches as someone makes their way into the channel. Welcome to the Elusive channel #Santharia Charles

and is there a way of putting putting a " after Charles and changing the color of the nick and channe?

Change "msg #" to "describe #".

reposted as I edited at the same time you posted.

Can I change the color of the channel and the nick?

Code:

on !*:JOIN:[color:green]#channel[/color]:{
  describe # Gararion watches as someone makes their way into the channel. Welcome to the Elusive channel 4 $+ # $nick $+ $+ "
}

nvm got it:

Code:

  on !*:JOIN:#Santharia:{
  describe # watches as someone makes their way into the channel.  4"Welcome to the elusive channel # $nick $+ $+ ".
}

Thanks everyone that helped

Just noticed I put an extra $+ in, doesn't really matter but you might wanna get rid of it.

I already removed it. Thought it was a typo. Thanks once again

One more question.

how can I but a comma in it to prduce the following.

*gararion watches as someone makes their way into the channel. "Welcome to the friendly channel #Santharia , Charles."

I know how to put the " and the . in but how do I but the , in after the channel name?

This is what I have atm:

Code:

on !*:JOIN:#Santharia:{
  describe # watches as someone makes their way into the channel.  4"Welcome to the friendly channel # $nick $+ ."
}

Code:

on !*:JOIN:#Santharia:{
  describe # watches as someone makes their way into the channel.  4"Welcome to the friendly channel # $+ , $nick $+ ."
}

Edit: Forgot to sort out line breaks.

Thanks. Is there a way of editing this same script to make it post a message when someone leave or exits the channel? Whould I replace JOIN with LEAVE or EXIT?

change the :JOIN: to :PART:

There are two events that you'd need to add. The first would be on PART, which has the same syntax as on JOIN. The second is on QUIT, for which the syntax is slightly different.

Code:

on *:QUIT:{
  if ( $nick ison #Santharia ) {
    describe #Santharia watches as someone leaves the channel.  4"I'll miss you $nick $+ ."
  }
}

One thing to note about on QUIT is that you can't use # or $chan to reference the channel name, as people don't quit channels, they quit the IRC server.

on *:QUIT:{
describe $comchan($nick,1) watches as someone leaves the channel. 4"I'll miss you $nick $+ ."
}
on *:PART:#:{
describe $chan watches as someone leaves the channel. 4"I'll miss you $nick $+ ."
}

Autogreets are kinda dumb if you ask me. Why would anyone want to have a script say hello to them? Also, if someone join/parts the channel repeatedly, you could end up flooding yourself off.

That will message him on the first common channel, which won't always be #Santharia.

he never asked for santharia specific

But the autogreet is being used on #Santharia, so it's safe to assume that's where he want's the autocry too

Thanks. I actually have different ones for certain channels on different servers. And I don't have the worry of someone flooding these channels. If I see that happening I will ban for a short period so he/she gets the point
