BRenBot 1.33 is now co-released with RenGuard! BRenBot has over 20 bugfixes and features, with many more planned. Most of the bugs were fixed due to peoples suggestions on mantis.n00bstories.com (see http://www.renforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=9557 ).

Head on over to http://www.brenbot.com for info and downloads.

Here are just a few of the fixes:

1. RenGuard Support (see RenGuard section)
2. Added !rehash command which reloads all configs (so you dont have to restart the bot after adding moderators etc.)
3. BRenbot now rejoins channel if kicked.
4. Reconnects to IRC if disconnected.
5. Proper spacing of name column in !playerinfo
7. Removed dependency on perlglob.exe. Now using internal directory scanning code to get mapnames.
8. The above also fixes the "!shownextmap doesn't work" issue, as well as the "!setnextmap or !vote map blah" sets to an invalid map issue.
12. Fixed bug where config file was not parsed correctly depending on spaces around the equal signs.
13. Removed hard coded autoresponses for "refill", "base to base", and "spawn kill".
14. Fixed issue with not getting a rec for most kills if you have zero deaths.
15. Removed !ban powers from TempMods.
16. Added highlighting of mods/tempmods names in !playerinfo
17. Added bounds checking for all msg commands to prevent buffer overflow/FDS crash exploit (including !setjoin/!viewjoin).
18. General code optimizations.
19. recommendations join text are now external and customizable as recs.txt

Would you consider giving mac a non-root account on your box so that he can compile it for suse9?

I liked the bugfixes Blazer but theres also a big problem with the bot on IRC
It laggggss the hell out of the chan. Not in-game but it takes about 10+ seconds for IRC commands to be processed.

I reverted back to v 131 until thats fixed and installed the ssc-renguard version instead for now.

Any idea what causes this??
With brenbot 131 and the ServerSideClient of RenGuard there are no problems at all :S
Sorry for bad news Sad

Usage: ./brenbot [ -Alib.par ] [ -Idir ] [ -Mmodule ] [ src.par ] [ program.pl ]
./brenbot [ -B|-b ] [-Ooutfile] src.par

What must I do, to start brenbot?
Thx for brenbot

Ya our bot reports very slowly. I can leave our server and rejoin before any of that log is shown in IRC.

If we had to ban all who ever cheated or ever created a cheat (obj3cts and such) then I don't think there would be many members left here (sad fact).
