Matchbot bug!

[Evoce]

the !ready command does not work if you uppercase the R (!Ready). just to let you know...


EDIT: actually none of the commands work if you uppercase the first letter.

nice job finding it. noone never noticed it before in all those years matchbot has been arround

[Stabwound]

It's not a bug.

[Nikolai]

Of course it's a bug! I should also try !READY or !rEaDy or !readY, a bot should take care of case sensive, may I know who is responsible for that?

[Da1andonly]

perfectly fine as it is

[duel pasta]

Yep, this is not a bug.. just don't use uppercase...

I believe that goes for any older bot that doesn't use the CommandInterpreter. The basic command delegation I've seen only does lower case checks. I always make things case insensitive by saying string = string.toLowerCase(); before I do any comparisons, but that's me.

actually this is a more recent problem i think

because u used to able to use upper case to !ADD and !READY but u now no longer can

[Kuukunen]

Meh, people who are used to windows might think case doesn't matter that much. No need to change, it's not worth the time. I don't see why people would want to be able to use !ADD.

If I am going to ask my brother, who is working for IBM, guess he will tell me that's a stupid mistake. Programming has to be, dissolving all the problems which are possible! and if I am moody again and want to scream the bot with !ADD, they he should add.

Not really all which are possible. If they wanted to do that, they should program it with a system similar to google's "Did you mean" thing. Like typing "reade" would work etc. Oh and then you should be able to use !sub before the start. And you should be able to change, sub and add people during the 30 sec countdown. If the thing works well and everyone knows how to use it, I don't see why it should be made easier to use. There's also a thing to be considered: the time it takes to program it. You could spend the rest of your life making the Matchbot easier to use, but that's not really a good idea.

one that does happen is in ?go base if u get added then u cant play no more and u go to !NP and then the captain Doesnt sub you, he does !switch it adds you into the switched ship, kinda sucks if u do !np then go afk and u get switched into a ship somehow

[Rab]

if i was making it, it would ignore case, but someone else kindly gave up their time to make it - and they didnt ignore case. so unless u wanna do it urself, stfu.

Hmm... Well when I last tried, doing !notplaying removed me from the game.

[Remezetti]

Well, overall you should do like all the normal people do. Just type !ready it's much faster easier and better.
