Automatic Resume Script

[gildan2020]

hi, does anyone know of a script that detects the status of a ctcp transfer?

if the bot disconnects, the script will ask to resume again...for a limited number of attempts.


thx,

if i understand it right you mean something like this http://klboard.ath.cx/index.php?showtopic=80182

that's a long pin

which one is the one ur talkin bout?

well, one thing for sure...i've already have the first post's codes/scripts and they're not what i meant here (the timer is not suitable, i might get banned)

wat i want is detect disconnection of ctcp transfer, attempt reconnect to the same bot, that's all :)

when bots find out you are using a timer mostly you are banned instandly !!

yeah, i agree

wat about scripts that can detect the status of a ctcp transfer? do u know where i can find them?

or perhaps auto-resume scripts when bot disconnects me

a bot can't auto resume after a disconnect because the next queued person will start getting their pack. setting a timer for once every hour should keep you covered. assuming no one else queues before your timer sends the trigger for a pack you'll at least be requeuedone set to go each hour is not as big a problem or likely to get you banne dlike the six minute timer. a script that detects a disconnect then re enters the trigger for you to be resumed? i'm certain that's too advanced to even exist but perhaps someone else knows.

mIRC's scripting language is rather intricate, so i don't think it's too advanced to exist. that doesn't answer the question of whether such a script does exist or not, however :unsure:

one might ask the good fellas at mirc.com's board to build/help build such a script for him, like i did with the resume rollback

i haven't encoutered bots that ban u for using timers, but im not a particularly heavy irc downloader.. if the topic explicitly says no timers then it's a no brainer but other wise i think it's worth a shot :)

np

btw there might be a partial solution

if you notcie the script in the pinned adv guide it has a ON *GETFAIL* event

you might want to start downloading whatever it is you want, then add the line ON *GETFAIL* msg bot xdcc send 1

of course in the syntax depicted by the guide

however if the bot is down and only comes back later, that won't help you
