Every couple of weeks, WelcomeBot goes offline. The error messages all seem to look like this:
File "data/bot.py", line 98, in actor = ircmsg.split(":")[1].split("!")[0]IndexError: list index out of range
The input that appears to have caused this looks something like this:
It's not clear to me what's causing the index out of range. Split returns a list of size 1 or greater (I believe) so doing split("!")[0] should be fine, even if there's no ! in the string (as appears to be the case above). And the input above does have several ":" so the [1] shouldn't be out of range either. Maybe this is the wrong input somehow?
If we can't figure out how in particular this is being broken, we can perhaps still solve it by inserting a try:except statement around line 98. I don't think that we actually need to address whatever this rare, break-ing message is - we can just insert some nonsense that doesn't match any of the .find()s in the rest of the loop.
