Add the bot's name to the vip.txt.

You know why? Since the bot is considered a subspace client (not Continuum) and it needs special ("vip") access to the zone so the server ignores the fact that the bot doesn't use Continuum encryption for its packets.

I've never had to place a MERV's name in the vip.txt.

Why's that, anyone know?

MMav explained it already. sa_tongue.gif

MERV enters using the SubSpace protocol and client, so it'll need special access to enter a zone (unless you allow VIE clients in [should be a setting in server.ini]).

Because you're probably running with full subspace access.

That or you gave it staff access.

Even with staff access you need to have the bot on vip.txt AFAIK.

Other option you could do is give the bot the *vip password, then it wouldn't be necessary aswell. (People from DS used to / are doing that)

Well, I gave it staff access.

And Brain, what do you mean, "full subspace access"?

Means you set your server up to not require Continuum.
