Safe List

[JaMi]

Could someone help me out with adding a safelist? i dont want the source code for it (unless you feel thats the only way) id prefer to have it explained, where i can actually learn something from it. I only come here and ask questions when ive tried to figure it out myself and can't.. ive tried a few methods for this and all of them = nowhere near the result i was trying to achieve. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanx in advance

My thoughts on a Safe List are this:  Users who are on the safe list cannot be banned/kicked/etc.  You add users to a safe list by adding a flag to their status (for the bot, not bnet).  For example, in VB6, where the flags S == Safe, A == Admin

Code Select Expand

Dim UserX as New USERCLASS
UserX.Flags = SA

That would mean that the user is safelisted and is the bot master.

Then, on a kick event sent to the bot, you simply check the flags.  I never was good at AND and OR checking (bitwise, not logical), but I think you would do something comparable to the following:

Code Select Expand

Sub KickUser (User as USERCLASS)
  If (User.Flags AND S) = S Then
    'The user is safelisted, do not kick
  Else
    KickUser(User.Name)
  End If
End Sub

I hope this is something along the lines of what you were looking for.

Looks good.. bitwise OR combines flags, so you'd probably want 'UserX.Flags = A OR S'.
