Bot Version: 1.1.0


Agent

Recommended Posts

This bot features several Renegade-X plugins. The nature of this bot is modular in design, so you can easily swap specific features in and out as you please. As such, feel free to post your own additions, as well as feedback.

Major features include an IRC bot and a Renegade X RCON bot. TeamSpeak support may be added at a later date, as well as possibly a number of other mediums for easy and convenient server administration. For now, the primary means of using this bot is still by using IRC.

Please note that you should secure your administrator channels to prevent public display of IP addresses.

Most configuration files are in the Configs folder. The minimal configuration to get the bot to run as intended will be setting up an IRC connection (3 examples are given) in IRC.Core.ini, and setting up RenX server connections in RenX.Core.ini. You can set which plugins to load in Config.ini (in the same folder as the .exe, not in the Configs folder).

Never mind. Forgot to update Config.ini with the new namespace.

Edited my "Update!" to mention this. :P

Nice update, Great bot!! good work!! Really organized now, love it!

Thanks! :)

Special characters need to be escaped. For example, I have a friend with a pipe "|" in his nick in IRC, and whenever he does !msg, the game cuts it off. This can probably be exploited with really bad consequences.

I see what you're talking about. I'll see if there isn't a way to transmit that character with some degree of safety; if not I'll just replace it with a / or something. Other characters don't appear to have the same effect, however.

Updated! Note: This update will NOT function on Open Beta 1 servers; this is an update for Open Beta 2.

Also note that there have been significant changes to the configuration file that require you to modify any existing configs. This mostly (if not entirely) applies to the [RenX] section being changed, and several other sections being added.

The bot will part channels when their type is configured as negative. The default config sets the default type to -1. You can change this by removing the line "Channel.Type=-1" under [Default], but RenX still will not report to those channels.

If you need help configuring, I can help ye with that.

I have the channel set to 2, but the default seems to override it when I add the channel key. It works fine when I remove the key.

The ports were definitely correct, I must have deleted a character or bracket or something because I started with a fresh config and its all working now :)

What's the easiest way to set it as the admin channel has a password to join? :)

I tried doing a raw join, but it quits the channel

I still need to fix a bug involving passworded channels actually, but in the mean time something like this should work:

Configure the admin channel as normal.

Add something like this line to the same section: RawData.1=JOIN #Channel PASSWORD

Edit: When I get around to fixing this, you'll be able to just add the password after the channel name (i.e: Channel.1=#adminChannel superSecurePassword ).

Edit 2: This is fixed for the next update.

Updated!

This build should also be compatible with the upcoming RenX patch.

New plugin: RenX.Medals -- Players are given recommendations for destroying buildings, having the most vehicle kills, and having the most kills.

New file: Translations.ini -- Allows you to override preset translations or specify ones that aren't already translated.

Updated! Some bug fixes and feature additions.

Personal update:

I haven't been able to dedicate nearly as much time to maintaining this as I had previously due to my father having a stroke; a huge part of my schedule has been carved out to help take care of his needs, as well as manage a business that suddenly got thrown at me while he was incapable of speaking and bedridden. He's faring far better now, and since I'm no longer busy 24/7 (I actually have time to sleep now! :D), I plan to put some time back into this project again.
