KFIRCBot (Killing Floor IRC Bot)

Killing Floor mutator/server actor that reports current game status to an IRC channel and much more.
KFIRCBot was originally created by Fox on 11 January 2010 and can be found here[www.epnteam.net].
I take credits only for stuff listed below.

Thanks for positive ratings!

Fixed:
-bot rejoin and lowered time to 10s
-wave length naming
-wave difficulty detection
-IRC command parsing (now accepting capital/lowercase)
-chat handling (now parsing also 'TeamSay')
-bot appearance on kick list

Added:
-ability to send messages through bot to active game (shown as specified custom character)
-ability to join channel protected with password
-ability to hide players IPs (shown during player connects to the server)
-nick to message showing when player exits the server
-elapsed time to !status command
-prefixes for chat messages >> and death messages *
-permission handling (bot will respond now to certain users, with flag +o/+v/ALL)
-option to enable/disable logging of gameplay to irc channel
-option to record gameplay (stored in Demos folder in format YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS_MapName.demo4)
-detection of zed kill (bot will post to channel who killed boss on last wave, prefixed by ~!~)
-!help command
-nick in use handling (will add -[0-1000] to current bot nick)
-bDebug which can help to diagnose problems on connection stage


Changed:
-command !scores to !status
-ability to parse !status from in-game chat (disabled)
-a bit the look of messages showing from bot (etc. waves, chat)


This is checksum for current release (v107) if doesn't match the file you have is unreliable!

ucc.exe Editor.CheckSumPackageCommandlet KFIRCBot.u
KFIRCBot.u checksum: 1e9ce6ce3c54d1b504eca8c1844992f3


Place the KFIRCBot.u into System folder.
In you server config (def. KillingFloor.ini):
under the [Engine.GameEngine] add line: ServerActors=KFIRCBot.KFIRC
at the end add:

[KFIRCBot.KFIRC]
ircServer= (ex.: irc.freenode.net)
ircPort= (ex.: 6667)
ircNick= (ex.: KFIRCBot)
ircChannel= (ex.: #yourchannel)
ircPassword= (password to channel, if any)
botChar= (ex.: DAR, check your *.upl files for names)
hideIP= (0 - show client IP on join; 1 - don't)
color1= (ex.: 04) (message types)
color2= (ex.: 12) (messages)
color3= (ex.: 09) (chat prefixes)
aO= (1 - allow to execute !commands by OP(s)/+o flag; 0 - don't)
aV= (1 - allow to execute !commands by VOICE(s)/+v flag; 0 - don't)
aAll= (1 - allow all users to execute !commands; 0 - don't)
fLog= (1 - log active gameplay events to channel on join; 0 - don't + not recommended)
bDebug= (1 - show messages in server console during connecting to irc server; 0 - don't)
rDemo= (1 - records demos; 0 - don't)

You can find example configuration here[raw.github.com].

Properly installed mutator should show in the server console something like this:
[+] Starting KFIRCBot version: 107
[+] SnZ - snz@spinacz.org
[+] Fox - http://www.epnteam.net/
Resolving irc.freenode.net...
Resolved irc.freenode.net (130.239.18.172)

Keep in mind that if you won't configure bot, it will use default settings listed in Main class[github.com].

In you server config (def. KillingFloor.ini):
under the [Engine.DemoRecDriver] change following values:

NetServerMaxTickRate=61
LanServerMaxTickRate=61

This should fix recording demos in low framerate, same changes can be done for playback on the client.

KFIRCBot is a fully automated mutator but you can also use following commands on channel:

!status - force show current game status
!s <message> - send message through bot to active game
!log <1/0> - ON/OFF logging active gameplay events to channel.
!help - will show all of the above commands, just in case if you forget

Even if fLog will be defined as 0 you can still get output from any commands posted above. Only !s <message> won't care about fLog parameter (will send message to players and forcibly enable logging), because you want to get answers right?

For example, if you used fLog=0 bot will join channel and won't log current gameplay as long as you don't tell him to do this: !log 1. It can be usefull if you don't want too much spam, but if you want to use it without that, just specify fLog=1 in config.

Psst! I'm not really a coder but i do things :-)
