What This Hack Does.

This hack add a userlike bot to your forums. You can set which forum he will post in and how often he will reply to poeples posts. He will try and build his replies off the text that they posted. This bot will learn overtime slowly from your users posts. I will also be seeing about porting over the teachbot soon.

Some New Features
acp controlled Rate Of Post
ability to post as bot and he will not reply
post count will not go up in forums where post counts are turned off
a few options to turn off and on a few things including the script itself.
Some other stuff i just cant remember

Fixed in 2.0.2:
Go advanced feature works for quick reply.
Bot will no longer reply when post is stopped becuase of an error. (aka floodlimit, to many images, ect)

Fixed in 2.0.1:
Fixed a few minor problems including using the wrong variable in the if statement for the random smilie check.
fixed the install.txt problem used a find code that was from one of my modifications sorry about that.

Upgrading From v2.0.1 Instructions:
These are in the v202 upgrade file

Upgrading From v2.0.0 Instructions:
To upgrade from v2.0 just make your changes to the new _talkerbot.php file and replace the old v2.0 one.


Upgrading From v1 Instructions:
Just use the install.txt and do the forum.php in the acp directory edits.
Add the new phrase and run the query.


Todo List:
Move all settings to acp settings page
fix the floodcheck problem of bot still replying when users post is not made.
Clean up the code more
Figure out more stuff todo.

Like i said tho the bots table is empty for me and you should have like around 30 entries in the bot table.
Is it just not replying? If thats the case do the following
open admin cp
go to the forum manager
edit the forum you want to allow the bot to post in
set the rate of bot posting this number is a percent just without the %. 0 will disable him from posting in that forum.

[Leapfrog]

No hes replying, but all he says is that hes not feeling well. No matter what we say thats all he says. I think Rob has installed him numerous times.

[eXtremeTim]

Can one of you give me ftp access and a acp login latter so i can go look at your problem.

Gamer sorry i havent gotten around to looking at your problem yet. Ive been really busy.

[Xyphen]

How can I change this answer?

"What is your name?"

Response "My name is Program E."

[eXtremeTim]

Edit the bot table. That contains most of the bots info like girlfriend and stuff like that.

[eXtremeTim]

Im looking to release a htl version for this hack latter tonight.

[eXtremeTim]

On second thought I will now be releasing tommorrow two versions. One will be an upgrade version to upgrade to 2.0.3 and the other will be a fresh install version. There will be several nice changes in the 2.0.3 version. The first being that this hack will now be full acp driven. The second is that it will also include the learner bot addon made by geographic2 with some of the changes i have made. This will also be fully acp controlled. I am making the upgrade version first since the way the htl works with the queries and stuff. After that I will go and add in the steps for its its a fresh install.

[PET]

hmm...here is a stupid question. What exactly this HACK is ? A b0t user ho posts messages ? How he post messages ? How he know what to post ? How do he "LEARN" ?
