Kountdown is an IRC bot created to, well, Count Down to rocket launches and other aerospace-related events that are worth following. However, since then, it has gained some other useful features. It resides in the channels #KSPOfficial and #kspmodders on irc.esper.net.

The bot is based on the awesome Willie bot framework and as such also benefits from lots of awesome features the base bot has. The primary difference is a bunch of custom modules that manage countdowns and provide handy search commands and then another couple of modules which are Willie's default url and yt with a hacked-in option to disable automatic URL titles.

This repo contains just those modules and a sample config, which, combined with the Willie framework, is basically everything you need to make your own perfect copy of the bot.

Right now I think the code I have is too crude and ugly to show to anyone and created the public repo primarily for the lulz issue tracker, which enables users to submit feature requests (and bug reports) that don't get lost immediately while simultaneously giving me a good place to store my TODO's (as I tend to forget a lot of stuff, especially stuff someone else wants :P). There is also a wiki for storing documentation (of which there currently exists exactly one page).

So if you have a trollpost to post an idea to suggest, please do! The tracker is over there. ———>
