BOT

Usage: BOT <botname> <command>

Bots are simulated clients that act as your agent in a room. Bots have three functions. The first is to keep a room open so that it will show in the list. The second use for the server bot is to send a welcome message to users who enter the room. The third is to invite people into the room or op them if they are trusted with a password.

Used by itself, the command will return all the bots configured to run on the server.

ADD - Add a server bot
CHANLIST - List the rooms/channels a server bot is controlling.
COMMANDS - Commands used in chat to control a server bot
DEL - Delete a server bot
LIST - List the settings for a bot
SET - Set additional configurations for your server bot

Examples:
/as help bot <command>

Bots are useful for important rooms. They keep them open and they protect them. Since bots cannot be kicked from a room, they are always there to let you back in regardless of what is done to the room. If you have services, you do not need a bot, but you may want one anyway. In order to create a useful bot you will need to add it and then use the chan commands to have the bot start watching rooms. If you do not enter a password for the bot or the rooms, then the bot can only be accessed by people with configuration access or the ability set bot passwords. You need a bot in a room in order to log the room. See LOG for more information on logging. That is an Enterprise Only feature that can be added to other servers with the Scribe module.
