Now when I recconect for any reason mirc doesn't rejoin my channels automatically I have to cycle them and the appropriate box is ticked in the options.
Also mirc now floods me off easily when getting large amounts of text eg. akill list from services (mirc 6.03 doesnt do this same settings) I was told because my mirc now does /who on join if this is the case then why was this changed.
indeed adding the following line to my remote area fixed this but it wasnt needed in mirc 6.03.
alias who { if ($nick( # ,0) > 400) { .who # } | else { echo -a ERROR who has not been preformed. to many users in # } }
If mIRC 6.1 does perform a /who when you join a channel then it's an option I don't have enabled and cannot find in either the options screen or versions.txt.
Maybe you have a script doing it? Many scrips do that so nickcoloring, clone detection and various other things work all the time.
Type /debug @debug and rejoin a smallish channel, does a /who get sent by mIRC? If so type /remote off and try again. Does it still get sent?
Is it just me or this alias will work only on large channels, which is not the point?
2 updates the /who isnt shown in debug so that isnt to blame I guess
and the line it seems makes no difference anyway
the 1 time it worked must have been a fluke but it defenitly works everytime on mirc 6.03.
quit reason Quit (SendQ exceeded)
This kind of relates to a post i done yesterday, mIRC has a new option to do /who onjoin, options -> IRC -> options
now, on plain mIRC the switch works, but i always do a /who onjoin in my script, and it relays everything nice and tidy and matching to my script in the status window, but the default switch doesn't turns it on or off, now i scripted it, i had to make my own switch, but also i've joined large channels in excess of 1000 users and i've never flooded off, maybe lagged by a few seconds.
If you're refering to the "Nicks on join" option then that does not do a /who on the channel. It doesn't perform any extra commands, it simply shows/hides the raws that get sent to you when you join a channel.
You must have an on JOIN script doing a /who, or be on a very wierd server.
Thats what i'm saying.
i scripted the /who raw to echo the users details from a channel into the status window, but using the show nicks on join option in mIRC didn't seem to work for me, so i just added this
on *:join:*:{ if ($nick == $me) { if ($chan(#).ial == $false) { who # } } }
That option isn't related to /who raw replies.. it's related to /names, which gives all nicks on a channel, not the further info that /who gives. That's why it didn't seem to work.
