Terminus-Bot chokes on external messages

[Xe]

           @Xe | >inject :376100002 PRIVMSG #test :Test
ShadowNET#test | FAQServ Test

Leads to the error:

E, [2014-02-24T12:05:30.820292 #30292] ERROR -- events.run: Error running event PRIVMSG: undefined method `prefix' for nil:NilClass

/names in #test

-- | Nicks #test: [@Caerdwyn @ShadowNET @Volantis Terminus-Bot Xe zepton]
-- | Channel #test: 6 nicks (3 ops, 0 halfops, 0 voices, 3 normals)

Running Terminus-Bot in verbose mode -v should give more detailed output about the source of the error. Could you do that and paste the output here?

It's trying to get the prefix (+, @, ~, etc.) for a channel user that doesn't exist.

Terminus-Bot should be made more robust to be able to handle -n channels intelligently.

[Xe]

Would a possible fix be to have a prefix defined in the code as less than a normal channel user for anyone that sends an external message?

[sariyamelody]

Is this still an active issue that needs fixes?

[Xe]

I haven't tested in months.

If someone would like to provide test data on this, please do so. Otherwise I'm closing this in the next few days.

[Xe]

It's been fixed. Closing this.
