Undernet #42

Open h4ystack opened 8 years ago

On Undernet, the bot say's it connected but it's not, I changed the server to freenode and it work, can't figure out the issue.

Hello,

Thanks for the interest in by irc-bot, unfortunately I no longer maintain this project, it was just a toy application so I can learn basic programming.

As a general hint, the problem is in the file functions.py, namely the function name_bot. The bot was coded closely to what data the freenode servers send on the network, I suspect that the undernet servers do not send the same data when trying to get a nickname for the bot, so it will just hang in the infinite loop in the above-mentioned function.

Thank you for your awnser, I really apreciate it. I'm new to python, so I'll investigate this to see if I can find a workaround.
