i got a source from catid, .dll for mervbot, was wondering if someone would like to convert it to an ASSS module for me?

Learn to program yourself. If you're going to use ASSS, you'll have to know how to program, or at least have a programming slave.

Oh, and you can use MERVBot in ASSS.

current programming slave = SMong lol but hes lazy and also, my topic got deleted by someone, but i asked if anyone has an example i can follow of a module in python? it would help me learn alot faster if i can see what all these commands do

I think this is fairly simple:

Code: Show/Hide # demo asss python module # dec 28 2004 smong # nearly always use this from asss import * # get some interfaces # see chat.h for where I_CHAT comes from, see other .h files for more (fx: #  game.h) chat = get_interface(I_CHAT) # a callback # this function is called when a player enters/leaves, see core.h for PA_??? #  constants def paction(p, action, arena):     # start indenting     if action == PA_ENTERARENA:         # see chat.h for the names of more functions like SendMessage         chat.SendMessage(p, "hello")         # i'm not sure which one of these is correct, you will have to         #  experiment. edit: ok i tested this, #2 works.         # see player.h for more p.??? fields         #chat.SendMessage(p, "1) hello %s", p.name)         chat.SendMessage(p, "2) hello %s" % p.name)         #chat.SendMessage(p, "3) hello ", p.name)         #chat.SendMessage(p, ( "4) hello ", p.name )) # tell asss to call 'paction' when CB_PLAYERACTION is signalled # see .h files for CB_??? names cb1 = reg_callback(CB_PLAYERACTION, paction) # a command # see cmdman.h for what each parameter does def c_moo(cmd, params, p, targ): # help text (?help moo)     """\ Module: <py> demo Targets: none a sample command. """     chat.SendMessage(p, "moo") # tell asss to call 'c_moo' when a player types ?moo # note: add cmd_moo to conf/groupdef.dir/default so players have permission to #  use this command. cmd1 = add_command("moo", c_moo) # now make you own module # i recommend writing on paper what you would do if you were hosting the event #  manually, then look at the .h files to find the callbacks you need (like #  shipchange, kill, etc) look at the asss console for execution errors, and if #  that doesn't help, add some chat.SendArenaMessage("i'm at line ...") type #  messages to locate the buggy piece of code.

Save this in bin/demo.py. Then ingame make sure pymod is loaded by using ?lsmod and ?insmod. Then add this module with the following command: ?insmod <py> demo. Re-entering the arena and typing ?moo should do some stuff.
