Well... a third party program.. but allready approved by the MTA team, and still working. And all it (should) do is creating 1 registry value.. I don't see the point of creating a whole new program for this. It's a waste of valuable time. I can think of some other things that are much more needed

But why don't you just create a directory containing mta:// links? You can name and comment on them in the filename, and if you click them, you'll connect to the server. Why create a program for it??

What do you need my (ancient) admin system for? Is has been outperformed by allmost every script currently available

Someone didn't read my msg's I allready pointed you at signalling in 2.00x

This is because of the speed of mIRC handling loads of variables. The way mIRC stores all the information is quite stupid. Longer variables cause a longer parsing time of the script. With ini-files, all data is stored in a seperate file, and can be used after mIRC had restarted. Commenting code is an other thing. I remember all the old code i had to work with in the days I was still scripting. And everyone who was (ab)using my scripts because they were quite documented and easy-editable. Your script looks quite nice, cant test it though. I'm certain some other people will. Great work!

You'd wish For the multiple personal scripts, i've got some idea's to run them (efficiently) next to each other. You know how to contact me i guess

You can read out the admin connection's and their IP's from the logfile. But i would seriously suggest to reconsider running servers if you don't know how to admin them

It's quite long for what it should do. Are you alleready using a script where you want to add it into, or do you want this script to run seperately? I think it can be at least cut into half of the current length. But if it's working...

On which line the unknown appears? (What does it say exactly?)

The best solution for this is a (distributed) databaseserver, where everyone can query. That would decrease the bandwith, because a join then only requires 2 queries, max 1k

What should the mta.killer alias do?

In mta.text: if ( noob isin $3- ) { mta.kick $1 $2 } and in mta.kill if ($5 == 16) { mta.say $1 $mta.name($1,$2) wear a helmet }

This one is even more stupid

TRY: alias mta.text { if (brb == $3) { mta.say $1 I DON'T THINK SO! mta.ban $1 * } } ...

127.0.0.1 didn't work? -> comment the line with server ip iwth a # You double checked IP, port and pass, and you're sure you enabled the admin(plus) connections ?

I know the problem You just forgot to backup your mIRC dir Just tell me if you need any help with scripting. (This could be a nice moment to switch to another language )

Wasn't colortext removed in 0.4? Was it a 0.3 server?

Downlaod the separate files (NOT the rar's, those are old versions) to your mirc dir, and read the readme for installation

Just find a general mIRC scripting tutorial first, after that you can easily use MTA:MA commands. (Or wait for a javascript engine)

I' wondering wheter the errors aren't caused by a memory leak in the server. I ran the linux version on a seperate system, and after running for 3 weeks, it used all available RAM and swap. Some people crashed every 30 secs. After restarting the server this was decreased to once an hour. I don't know if your program is able to detect problems that are cuased by strange packets from the server, but I think it's worth investigating.

Why doesn't he just use Oli's script, and put all your names in as the smallest kind of admin that is possible? That way you can only votekick (whoooh) and your names are protected by passwords. Yes, it'll take a few minutes to insert all names, but this is the most simple solution that i can think of, if you can't edit the scripts

I guess you have to ask your server admin why he removed those scripts, because it's easy to run them together. It must have been him that removed them

What do you mean? Something like http://barry.student.utwente.nl/mta is possible.

Piece of cake, just give a call Oli if you're having trouble, i'll make it then.
