Please read the readme and comments in the spawn.txt file to find you how to use it.

but to give you the skinny...

in MERVBot.ini:

change

Quote:

[Login]
Zone=127.0.0.1:2000

to the IP address and port for your zone

(easiest way to recall this information is probably to right click on your zone in the zone list)

in Operators.txt

delete

Quote:

and add something like:

Quote:

5:YourBot'sName:loginpassword

in Spawns.txt

change

Quote:

Catid.Bot : +++++ : 0 : alias, flag, rampage : mod

to something like:

Quote:

YourBot'sName : yourbotspassword : 0 : alias, flag, rampage : staffpassword

you need to enter the zone (or rather, billing server) in question AS the bot's name before using the bot - to make sure the name is valid

staffpassword = whatever password (mod, smod, sysop) you want to let the bot use - most bots don't need sysop

(find passwords in the [Password] section of your server.ini)

MERVBot by itself is nice, but it's not much

generally people use MERVBot for some other plugins (other than the ones that come with it)

but mervbot.com is down atm - so check ssdownloads.com

and check mervbot.com again later
