Gos Link

Post by BearFather »

This version is no longer maintained. Please check here: http://www.mudinfo.net/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=2454

Do you have two realms on you board? Have you ever wanted to link their gossips? Do you and a friend both have a realm, and would like to link their Gossips? Well I got an app for you.

Ok I'm done with the salesman bull now.

Goslink is a java program that links up to 3 chat's, and it can act as a sysop bot. It will work in Linux and Windows. Should work on a mac too, but not tested. It will also see cleanup's and reconnect after a set period of time(your choice). And even has a web chat port to connect a web page up to get live chat on the web. Now has the ability to link to gossip global server.

Current sysbot commands:
@help
@abils - returns players currently abilities set(quest flags)
@good -sets player good
@neutral -sets player neutral
@evil -sets player evil
@retrain - retrains players stats
@home room# map# - gives status of boss in that room.
@where - tells you your current room number, and boss info if there is one.
@repeat - will repeat the megamud command back.
@notify - Allows players to send sysop messages to be read later.

Also will send a player info when they enter the realm.

Updated to version 3.2

I rewrote a lot of the bot part and the way things are handled.
Fixed relog lag, requiring a extra enter after relog.
Now relog's after a ghost, some reason if you login with ghost online things went funky.
Fix a few bugs in @home.
Made the entrance message only send to a user 5 times then won't bother them again.
The entrance message also sends on the 1 min heartbeat.

Updated to version 3.3

Added a option to disable the GosBot feature.

If your updating you need to add this line to your config:

bot=true

Updated to version 4.1.

Added support upto 3 servers, which also allows for single server user of just the admin bot.
Added a websocket port to allow live gossip on a webpage.

If you are updating I suggest you restart your config file from the default. There are several changes done to the config file.

Also Please let me know if you have issues with the entrance message not stopping after 5 entrances. I have it work in several machines, but on my live mud server box it goes haywire.

awesome app.

feature requests:
  • customize the message displayed when logged in (the "goslink enabled")
  • custom message that can be broadcast every X hours (explaining to people the commands)

I had thought about the customized login message. And when you login the first 5 times it will give you command info.

But I could maybe do timed broadcast.

Another feature request: Add time stamps to the log window.

Bug report: Mine seems to have trouble reconnecting after cleanup. This show up in the audit trail over and over:
"TELNET SERVER - NON-SGA CLIENT - Client at x.x.x.x does not support SGA." ... but then I just close and open it and he logs right in.

re: "custom message that can be broadcast every X hours (explaining to people the commands)" -- I see you have a message sent to users when they enter the realm. Talked to you online about this, but not sure why it took 2 days to start seeing it. Either way, I think having an option to just send it periodically over gos/auc and/or to users when they enter would be cool.
