Super Basic If-Then-Else

To understand If-Then-Else, you should already know the basics of Remotes

I will explain to you the use of If-Then-Else statements, as mIRC F1 help fails...epically...

Let's establish a code! This one will be used to set the channel topic! It uses security...very minimal though.

Code:

on 1:TEXT:!topic *:#channel: {
if ($me != isop) msg $chan I must be an op to set $chan topic!!!
if ($nick != isop) msg $chan You must be an op to set $chan topic!!!
if ($me == isop) { if ($nick == isop) msg cs topic $chan $1- } }
msg $chan Topic has been set to $1-
}

Since you already know basic remotes, I'll go over what we used to make this !topic.

You already know that the user must type !topic to set the topic

The :!topic *: means to listen for something after the user types !topic

Now we dive into the meat of Remotes!!!!

Code:

 if ($me != isop) msg $chan I must be an op to set $chan topic!!!

if - DUH self explanatory

($me - starts the if statement. Must be enclosed in ( )
!= - IS NOT EQUAL TO
isop - Is an Op
---This first statement checks to see if the bot is set as an op. If not, it notifies you.

($nick - The nick who wants to set the topic
---If the person trying to set the topic is not an op, it won't set the topic and notifies you.

($me == isop) - Checks to see if the bot is an op
IF the bot is an op, then it checks to see if the user is an op
($nick == isop) - Is user an op? If yes...
msg cs topic $chan $1- - Messages ChanServ, sets Topic, to $chan (the channel it's on), and $1- (the topic) Be SURE to include the - after $1, otherwise it just includes the first word.

This is what mIRC F1 says about the operators (which is the isop)
