VoteBot 9000 Commands and Usage Empty VoteBot 9000 Commands and Usage

Post by Rainboy Tue Oct 08, 2013 12:23 am

This thread will serve to document the new VoteBot's commands and how to use them. Players only need to worry about the in and vote commands; the rest are for hosts. A host is designated as the first poster in a thread.

[in]:

[vote <player>]:



[signups <open|closed>]:

[start]:

[dawn]:

[kill <player>]:

[replace <old player>, <new player>]:

[story <title>]:

And that's about it, folks. I've omitted a few of the seldom used commands in an attempt to keep things as easy to understand as possible. Feel free to ask any questions you want; I'll answer to the best of my ability. If a situation arises where one of those unmentioned commands would be useful, I'll mention it then.



Coding Progress: 95%
I've finished abstracting out old code to make room for the code that will be required for the bot to run on two different forums. Next I'll start setting the bot up to work with these forums. Then I'll need some volunteers to help me test out a mock game so we can iron out any remaining bugs. Check!

Update: The bot can now post and do some simple thread parsing. Still doesn't know how to delete or edit posts, or how to read/send PMs. (Though PMing is not actually used as of yet, so that functionality will not hinder his initial setup.)

Update 2: Bot can now track games, but does not know how to figure out which threads to read on a board. For now, I'm manually telling him which threads he should watch.

Update 3: Yay for testing! We've finished our first game with the bot without any major issues. I'm currently working on implementing boards and a feature to allow players to hide their commands.

The bot can be set up to read specific sections or threads. I'll have him reading this thread to test him out when the time comes.

However I think when you

Code:

I think it didn't work
It needed to be

Code:
[b]hi[/b]
Not sure how the code reads the posts..

Not sure how the code reads the posts..
The bot is coded to ignore whitespace such as extra lines, but it will not accept extra tags around the command (this prevents it from accepting commands that are in quotes) nor will it accept extra characters or commands inside the same bold tag (fixing this is on my todo list for the bot).

Works:
Code:
[b][hi][/b]
Code:
[b]
[hi]   [/b]
Code:
[b][hi][/b]
[b][hello again][/b]

Doesn't work:
Code:
[quote="Shadi"][b][hi][/b][/quote]
Code:
[b][hi]
[hello again][/b]
Code:
[b][hi] Shadi[/b]

Considering it doesn't accept the fifth or sixth code, no, that won't work. I see that my idea would also fail which is kinda unfortunate. It would be nice to "hide" the commands using color and size tags. That said, I completely understand why it doesn't work.

Minor update:
I've got the proper abstractions in place and fixed most of the bugs that the change introduced in the old code. My next step is to start creating the code that will allow the bot to interface with this forum. Fall break means I'll have substantial time over Monday and Tuesday to do this, and I might have something we can start testing very soon.
