Chatbox MiscPeripherals

Hello me again,

I've writen 2 programs that are made for the chatbox and teh speaker but i have 2 issues.

The miner program does not actually understand what number the message is for example:"if my message is "5" it would not stop at 5 but keep going."
2 but thats a small thing the name of the computer doesn't go in chat.

This is the core program

os.loadAPI("cleverbot")
bot = cleverbot.Cleverbot.new()
a = peripheral.wrap("speaker_0")
b = peripheral.wrap("chatBox_0")
range = 10000
lang = "en"
while true do
rs.setOutput("back", true)
event, player, message = os.pullEvent("chat")
if player == "jarifle" then
  if message == "door" then
   b.say("The door is open master.", range, true, "GladOs")
   a.speak("The door is open master.", range, lang)
   sleep(0.5)
   rs.setOutput("back", false)
   sleep(2)
   rs.setOutput("back", true)
  elseif message == "miner" then
    b.say("Miner program is booting.", range, true, "GladOs")
    a.speak("Miner program is booting.", range, lang)
sleep(3)
    shell.run("miner")
  elseif message ~= nil then
	 response = bot:send(message)
	  if response ~= nil then
	   b.say(response, range, true, "GladOs")
	   a.speak(response, range, lang)
    end
end
elseif message == "bitch" then
  b.say("Fack you!", range, true, "GladOs")
  a.speak("Fack you!", range, lang)
elseif message == "BITCH" then
  b.say("Fack you!", range, true, "GladOs")
  a.speak("Fack you!", range, lang)
else
  b.say("You are not my master!", range, true, "GladOs")
  a.speak("You are not my master", range, lang)
end
end

And this is the subprogram for the miner

a = peripheral.wrap("speaker_0")
b = peripheral.wrap("chatBox_0")
b.say("How far do you want to mine?", range, true, "GladOs")
a.speak("How far do you want to mine?", range, lang)
i = 0
while true do
  event, player, message = os.pullEvent("chat")
    if player == "jarifle" then
   m = message
	   if m then
		 repeat
	    print(m)
		  print(i)
		  rs.setOutput("right", true)
		  sleep(0.5)
		  rs.setOutput("right", false)
		  sleep(3)
		  rs.setOutput("left", true)
		  sleep(10)
		  rs.setOutput("left", false)
		  i = i + 1
		 until i == m
	 os.reboot()
    end
  end
end

Thank you!

You may have to use

m = tonumber( message )

Because the chatbox returns a string.

Example:

print( "5" == 5 )

Ah i see wil try that.
Any idea on the nickname thing?

I have no idea about the nickname thing, is the chatbox supposed to do that?

The computer can find it's own name through os.getComputerLabel.

It is if you look at etho's video's you can see the computer (chatbox) has a name when it speaks.

Etho, from what I remember, uses Peripherals++ instead of MoarPeripherals. Functionally they are pretty similar so I wouldn't worry.

However, reading through the MoarPeripherals code it looks like there is a setLabel function which allows you to set a nickname.

Edit: If you do mean Peripherals++, the last argument (fourth for say and fifth for tell) allows you to set a name. (Ughhr, why are there so many *Peripherals mods?).

SquidDev thanks for the reply.

But i also use peripheral++ and i have a fourth argument as you can see in the code but is just gives the computers coords.

b.say("How far do you want to mine?", range, true, "GladOs")

There should be a config item called logCoords in the chatbox section. If you set this to false you will be able to use custom names.

Ooooooooh it all makes sense now.

Thanks alot everyone.
