Hello,
I started running a bebot bot in one of my alts so my guildmates could try it, and after a few days trying, i found myself wanting to create a new account with a more suit name for the bot, is there a way i can change the bot name, so that the users don't have to resupply characters, alts, etc.?.

Thank you in advance.
Nico

Your tables will be prefixed (by default) with your bot name, so if your current bot is called (for example) nicobot your tables will be nicobot_users nicobot_settings etc

If you should rename your bot and not change the $table_prefix in MySQL.conf your new bot (let's call it nbot) will create tables nbot_users etc

If you change the table prefix however to nicobot_ (not sure if the _ is needed, haven't tested this) you should be able to get away with it.

So in your MySQL.conf: uncomment the

Code: [Select]

// $table_prefix ="";line and make to to say

Code: [Select]

$table_prefix = "nicobot_";(or just "nicobot" as I said I haven't tested this)
