Hi all,

When I'm working on the bot I need to do loads of !restart to get the new module to load for testing however the bot also re-spams the logon messages for everyone who's online causing a massive amount of spam. I've had a look through the commands however I can see anything to turn this off.

Is there a way to disable re-spamming everyones logon message when you restart the bot?

No access to my bots atm as I'm at work but believe you can set the notify on logon somewhere in settings, you could temporary disable it when you !restart I guess.

Well I've looked and can't find it anywhere - including full searches of the php files with no luck.

Anyone else have any ideas?

The logon spam module is on of the basic modules in the modules folder.

You can just disable that module from loading, or disable that module in the settings menu.

disabling a module (not loading at startup): change name from 'mod.php' -> '_mod.php'

Age of Conan will display logon and logoff notifies all by itself anyway

(yeah, i know aoc logon notify is not too accurate, but i hate spamming something that already is spammed by the game anyway..)

It really should not spam.

How long does your bot take to log in and ready and accessible ingame?

Try tweaking your !settings Logon_Notifies notify_Delay

By default the bot should wait 2 minutes + the notify_delay before displaying any logon/off notices from the moment it is started.

The actual login and come online is about 10 seconds but then it takes about 30 seconds for the bot to become responsive with 10 people online as it then goes through every single person and outputs their logon message. Until that's done it takes in messages but often doesn't reply (as it's classed as a flood I assume)

I dare not do it in the evenings with 20+ online as apart from the huge spam in guild chat it also takes about 2-3 mins before it becomes responsive.

I'll try tweaking those settings and let you know. Thanks for the help

!set Logon_Notifies Enabled Off

but then again when I do a !restart I don't get logon spam

Hi all,

I've tried all the suggestions you've given and I still get the logon spam when the bot restarts.

Anyone got any other ideas?

My guild bot does give one little message when the testing bot logs in. But the testing bot does not give logon spam when people login, log off or level, only the actual guild bot. Are you complaining about your guild bot spamming when the test bot logs in or that the test bot spams when users log in? I find this one message to be acceptable, I am not testing all the time or even very often.

Let us say there are 5 people logged into the game. When they logged in (could have been hours ago) they get a single

[21:38] [Guild] [bot]: "Player" (Lvl 80 Bear Shaman) Logged On :: Details ::

That is normal and fine.

However when I restart the bot, I get that login message for every person who is logged in (so if there are 5 people logged in I will get 5 "login" messages - one for each person logged in)

So if theres 10 people logged in, every time I restart the bot I get 10 loging messages.

If I had 30 online, I'd get all 30 again. You get the picture.

I've turne doff notify on the bot and I still get their login message and I still get them being re-posted when I restart the bot.

Hope that makes it clearer

The only time I have seen that happen, is when the member table has been deleted, and it has to rebuilt from scratch. It never happens here on a basic bot restart.

Not to add any real input, but my my bot restarts, he (or is it a she) does not spam the welcome login of all on-line players.

GBH · « **Reply #12 on:** April 26, 2010, 08:32:07 pm »

Well it seems only my bot is doing this and as far as I know I've not done anything clever or special with it. No matter what I set, it spams and seemingly nothing I do stops it.

Anyone else got any bright ideas?

Could you provide me with a full log of a restart? Either in PM or by mail if you prefer (thomas dot juberg [at] gmail dot com
