Hi,
first of all, I'm not smart but i got a problem. (and that's maybe two then) ;)
anyway.
if i let botserv assign a bot to a channel it takes allways the & level.
For my purpose I would love to see it having lower level.
How do i do that?
using Unreal 3.2.4 & Anope 1.7.6 (we will upgrade later on to latest version)
we have the same problem on our Ultimate network too btw
-
There is no option currently to give botserv mots "less" power in a channel.
-
Maybe if you explain a bit as to why you would want that we might be able to help?

As far as i am aware the restrictions on what BotServ bots can do are not related to what modes the bot has in the channel. Otherwise the bot would not be able to +o itself on a channel. So basically you can have the bot modeless in a channel but still able to do everything as if it were +o for example.
So basically apart from cosmetic reasons i see no point in giving the BotServ bot less power on a channel.

it will conflict with many scripts and other bots if it doesn't have +o, yet performs actions for which +o is normally required. a quick example would be eggdrop bots, though i think there s an option for those that can prevent it from making trouble over it, forgot the name though ...

The point i was getting at is why make it appear as if a bot has no power when it does. You're better off making people aware that the bot has power by giving it +o in a channel then letting it perform actions without +o.

BotServ is an opered client on a ulined server, from a technical standpoint .. it has all the power it can possibly have. How exactlly does that show that botserv has no power?? As far back as I can remember .. the average user knows that Services has special access, unless the users have been getting dumber over the years ... I'd assume the same is true.
