Sorry for my first post being a new thread
A few days ago me and a ingame friend started to work on a new relay system that uses a third bots privategroup to relay the chat from five guilds. All orgbots join that privategroup and send their chat there while copying what other bots say to their own guildchat.
With five bots sharing chat this works much better and faster than using tells (sending the same tell to all other bots) and it does not introduce as many problems like a IRC solution.
We use our own bots. No Bebot, Buda or IGN. However, some of the other guilds we want to relay with use these, so we started to make plugins for those bots... Bebot gives some serious trouble there, because it doesn't offer the ability to join another privategroup at all. Here is what I had to modify to make it work. Maybe this (or something like this) can make it into a later release of Bebot.
It is imho a important core change.
Main.php
Find the line "default:" "in function callback($type, $args)" and add the following before "default:"
<?php
case AOCP_PRIVGRP_INVITE:
$bot -> inc_pginvite($args);
break;
?>
Bot.php
Somewhere in the file add:
<?php
function inc_pginvite($args)
{
$group = $this -> aoc -> get_uname($args[0]);
if (!empty($this -> commands["pginvite"]))
{
$keys = array_keys($this -> commands["pginvite"]);
foreach ($keys as $key)
$this -> commands["pginvite"][$key] -> pginvite($group);
}
}
?>
Now in every plugin you can register $commands["pginvite"][] = &$class to catch incoming privategroup invitations.
<?php
$example = new Example($bot);
$commands["pginvite"][] = &$example;
class Example
{
function Example(&$bot)
{
$this -> bot = &$bot;
}
function pginvite($group)
{
$this -> bot -> aoc -> privategroup_join($group);
}
}
?>
Now there is another problem with "inc_pgjoin", "inc_pgleave" and "inc_pgmsg" in Bot.php. Those functions always assume it is the bots own privategroup that invoked those functions, which is no longer the case.
$args[0] in all three of these functions contains the UID of the privategroup owner that invoked the function. Right now it is completely ignored. Here is how I modified "inc_pgjoin" in Bot.php:
<?php
function inc_pgjoin($args)
{
$pgname = $this -> aoc -> get_uname($args[0]);
$user = $this -> aoc -> get_uname($args[1]);
$this -> log("PGRP", "JOIN", $user . " joined privategroup ".$pgname.".");
if (!empty($this -> commands["pgjoin"]))
{
$keys = array_keys($this -> commands["pgjoin"]);
foreach ($keys as $key)
$this -> commands["pgjoin"][$key] -> pgjoin($user, $pgname);
}
}
?>
"inc_pgleave" and "inc_gmsg" need to be altered in the same way.
<?php
function inc_pgleave($args)
{
$pgname = $this -> aoc -> get_uname($args[0]);
//snip
$this -> commands["pgleave"][$key] -> pgleave($user, $pgname);
//snip
}
?>
<?php
function inc_pgmsg($args)
{
$pgname = $this -> aoc -> get_uname($args[0]);
//snip
$this -> commands["pgmsg"][$comms[$i]] -> pgmsg ($user, $args[2], $pgname);
//snip
$this -> commands["privgroupall"][$comms[$i]] -> privgroupall($user, $args[2], $pgname);
//snip
}
?>
Now all guestchannel functions that use these three need to make sure that $pgname == $this -> bot -> botname before they react. If $pgname is not the botname, the function was invoked from another privategroup (someone joined or left another privategroup or the message comes from another privategroup).
Since the $group variable is given last, no alterations need to be made to any module UNLESS you really want to use other bots/players privategroups with your bot.
If you're not using other privategroups you can keep ignoring $pgname.
Last, send_pgroup in Bot.php needs to be altered so we can send chat to other privategroups.
<?php
function send_pgroup($msg, $group = NULL)
{
if ($group == NULL)
$group = $this -> botname;
$gid = $this -> aoc -> get_uid($group);
$send = true;
if (preg_match("/<a href=\"(.+)\">/isU", $msg, $info))
{
if (strlen($info[1]) > $this -> maxsize)
{
$this -> cut_size($msg, "pgroup");
$send = false;
}
}
if ($send)
{
$msg = str_replace("<botname>", $this -> botname, $msg);
$msg = str_replace("<pre>", str_replace("\\", "", $this -> commpre), $msg);
$msg = utf8_encode($msg);
$this -> aoc -> send_privgroup($gid, "<font color=" . $this -> group_color . ">" . $msg . "</font>");
}
}
?>
That's it. Now the bot is ready to interact with other privategroups than his own.
