Bot specifications

Features

Bots created with BotBot have a few features that are supported out-of-the-box.

Bots created with BotBot respond to the following commands, but their responses can be overridden by creating a statement that responds to these commands with a different response.

• !ping
• !ping @BotName
• !help @BotName

Bots created with BotBot are forced to respond to the following commands in a specific way.

• !pause @BotName: Puts the bot into an inactive state where it does not respond to triggers until the !restore @BotName command is used.
• !restore @BotName: Puts the bot back into an active state after the !pause @BotName command has been used.
• !kill @BotName: Deletes the bot.

Restrictions

Bots can become spammy, either intentionally or unintentionally, and end up hindering conversation in Euphoria. To prevent this, bots created with BotBot have certain restrictions.

• Bots may not interact with @BotBot.
• Bots may not send the !ping command.
• Bots may not !restore, !pause, or !kill other bots.
• Bots that are triggered more than 5 times in 3 seconds are automatically paused.
