/lag

By SplitFire on Jan 15, 2011

nothing much to tell, just a very basic yet accurate lag checker.
(yes i meant to use $nick, it's 2 bytes shorter than $server :p)

alias lag { set %lag $ticks | .quote PING $ticks }
on ^*:PONG:{
  if (%lag) {
    echo -a * Lag: $calc($ticks - $iif($2 isnum,$2,%lag)) ms ( $+ $nick $+ )
    unset %lag
    haltdef
  }
}

Why is it evil? Just because Scakk's avatar is one doesn't mean the use of groups is. ;/ Edit: it's the devil, to be exact.

If y ou only want it to work when you do /lag you could use a group as below.

alias lag { .enable #lag | .quote PING $ticks }
#lag off
on ^*:PONG:{
  var %lag $ticks
  echo -a * Lag: $calc($ticks - $iif($2 isnum,$2,%lag)) ms ( $+ $nick $+ )
  haltdef
  .disable #lag
}
#lag end

I've set the var before the PONG event so that it only displays lag if it was requested using the alias (hence the if (%lag) part), not just show lag everytime a PONG event triggers randomly. But yeah, both ways work :)

No need to set a variable. The below does the same.

alias lag { .quote PING $ticks }
on ^*:PONG:{
  var %lag $ticks
  echo -a * Lag: $calc($ticks - $iif($2 isnum,$2,%lag)) ms ( $+ $nick $+ )
  haltdef
}
