Hey, My bot connects fine..most of the bugs are fixed so far but just recently the bot seems to disconnect from bnet alot on its own. Even if its in a channel where its not being flooded with text or join/rejoins it seems to drop about every 5mins. Any Ideas? Sorry I cant be more specific, but I do not know what code to post(if any) and hopefully you guys have some suggestions to make it more stable.
P.S.: using CSB. ::)

Thanks.

Debug your bot , output some stuff when your differnt events fire , try and find the exact source of when you get disconnected , then come back and post the relevant code.

Are you responding to the Packet 0x25?

I don't use CleanSlateBot, but I'd imagine it automatically does respond to SID_PING

You cant expect to much from CSB if you wrote your own connection using BNLS or hash you could make sure its responding to all packets. it will help insure stabaility a bit

He wont have to worry about responding to anything with CSB , so thats not the problem , its likely your sending something to battle.net on one of your events , which is causing you to disconnect.

Then why would you make such a useless post??

BorT:

My bot automatically disconnected if I didn't send SID_NULL (0x00) or any other packet-- I don't ever respond to the SID_PING (0x25) packet except the first time I receive it.  I added a timer to send SID_NULL every 60 seconds.

I have a thought though -- why don't you packetlog the bot?  It seems to be a prudent course of action.

I would think that CSB would automatically send SID_NULL every so often, but maybe CupHead thought that lamer newbs would automatically make an anti-idle or something....

CSB (its just an ocx)has like the whole connection written already foryou... you just set a user/ pass and stuff and put a addchat and ur pretty much done... its for people that just start out and dont know that much about bnet

As long as Battle.net thinks you're connected (under "normal" circumstances), it sends you packets every couple minutes to make sure you're still responsive. As long as your client responds properly to SID_NULL and SID_PING, you shouldn't have problems with disconnecting all the time.

Yes, you can't have everybody...contributing to the main source repository.  That would be stupid and create chaos.

Opensource projects...would be dumb.

AFAIK, it is the client's responsibility to send SID_NULL.  The packet is empty and as far as anyone can tell, the only purpose it serves is to keep a connection alive.

You said that you didn't know CSB.  If you don't know CSB, then yes, you were right.

Real blizzard clients stopped responding to SID_NULL a long time ago.
