This simple Python script will make a few repetitive tasks easy when playing Werebot. What it does is:
- Sends any Werebot commands directly to the bot, which prevents the disclosure of your role by accidentaly sending a command at the wrong time and makes it easier to use commands at night (i.e., when the channel is fully muted).
- Automatically joins any of the official Werebot channels when the bot invites you, particularly useful for auto-joining the werewolf channel.
To install it, you will need both HexChat and Python 2.7 installed. Download and install them from https://hexchat.github.io/downloads.html. When installing HexChat, be sure to select and install the Python 2.7 plugin.
Afterwards, download the werebot-helper.py
file and save it to the appropriate location:
- Windows:
%APPDATA%\HexChat\addons\
- Linux and Mac:
~/.config/hexchat/addons/
You will need to restart HexChat. To check that the script is correctly installed, check that HexChat displays a message with the name and version of the script (werebot-helper vX.Y.Z) right after starting.
