Fxns = functions? You don't actually need to create new files to add functions to the bot, you can just edit other files and add to it. If you need to know more about it,

for some help sites.

assuming you mean the source for merv, look in commands.cpp. its essentially a gigantic version of commands.cpp that exists in the empty plugin source. thatll let you add some !commands to yer bot directly.

Code: Show/Hide

case OP_Player:
   { // Player-level commands
      if (c->check("about"))
      {
         sendPrivate(p, "I am a plain vanilla flavored bot. Yup, just as plain and useless as can be.");
      }
if (c->check("killme"))
{
sendPrivate(p, *shipreset);

}
   }
}
}

what would this do?

This would give an error =P

Code: Show/Hide

sendPrivate(p, "*shipreset");

u have to put the text to send in ""...

and it would reset the ship to inital bounty when player sends "!killme"

Good for you.
It really is quite simple. Generally the reason for a lack of coders is because many people are instantly overwhelmed. Had more people just sat down to look a little harder, they woudl see that its nat as hard as youd think.

And just for future reference, get in the habbit of doing "else if" after your first "if"

}
}

like that without comment?
