So that sounds easy enough, but I'm not exactly sure about how to do this: How do I find the last message received time?

Alright so I managed to get it working. Now it responds whenever someone types in the chat !test. But the problem now is that only other people can do it. If I do it, the message doesn't show up because it tries to send it IMMEDIATELY AFTER I send !test. Antispam blocks it. Been trying for the past hour to find a way to pause the script after it receives the trigger, but to no avail. I do have a way to pause it, but it pauses the ENTIRE CLIENT each time someone uses the bot. Any advice?

Mmm that's unfortunate. Someone should make one!

So while I'm here, is there some sort of documentation I can read on LUA plugins in JA++?

Thank you! I'm not too familiar with LUA but I'll go brush up and start on this.

More info please? Particularly on the JA++ with LUA part?

Is that how tools like Ultra Utility do it? Basically there are two methods I am thinking of, 1: Have a bot actually join the server as a client, then join spectator and wait for commands. 2: Skip the bot and just make the client(me in this case) respond to the commands automatically. Not really a bot per say, just parsing input and responding. Either way would do fine for me. I'll start looking around at the Quake 3 network protocol.

I want to make a Chat Bot for Jedi Knight Academy. Basically the bot reads the chat of the server, then if a user types in chat a '!', followed by a command, the bot responds accordingly. For example if a user was to type '!Weather', the bot would respond in chat by printing out the weather. The problem is I have no real idea on how to approach this. I've never done something like this before, but it sounds like a fun thing to try to do. I've only been programming for about 9 months so I'm not sure if this project is out of my bounds or not. Any advice? I know such bots have been made in the past I can't find any information on them. The closest I could get was finding this: http://jediknight3.filefront.com/file/JK3_Chat_Scan;23795 I'd like to do this in C# if possible.
