• BBS LIST

    From StingRay@1:103/705 to all on Tue Oct 1 15:30:02 2024
    Good afternoon,

    Is there already a command/.js/etc. to run at logoff to display random 5-10 BBSs from the BBS list?

    Like what is seen on Vert at logoff. Always want to promote other BBSs.

    I searched and did not find anything before writing this.

    Thanks in advance!

    Is there a way to add a pause?

    Mine logs off before the info is displayed via terminal. I see it coming through on the SBBS Terminal server view after the connection is lost on logoff.

    You could maybe add a sleep(5000); afterwards maybe to mdddd

    Sorry, I hit send rather than abort, I was going to start again :)

    How are you calling it?

    Would be nice if that was in the script or documented somewhere, at least.

    Does that actually work? I don't think it should since the fixed logout event runs after carrier is dropped.

    How I do it is with @exec:sbbslist-logoff@ ("EXEC" in all caps) added to my text/menu/logoff.msg file.

    You could also do it with an external program configured to run as a log-off event in SCFG->External Programs->Online Programs.

    Awesome! That seems way easier,
    No, it did not work as you said, log off initiated first.

    Thank you for the help and info!
