MUSHclient scripting

Description of MUSHclient world function: world.ChatAcceptCalls


Name ChatAcceptCalls
Type Method
Summary Accepts incoming chat calls
Prototype long ChatAcceptCalls(short Port);
Description

Starts accepting incoming chat calls.

The port number specifies which port to listen for the calls on. If zero, the default chat port is used. If non-zero, this will change the default chat port.

This will fail if MUSHclient is already accepting calls.

It will also fail if another program or another world (eg. another MUSHclient window) is already listening for calls on the specified port. Thus, if you are accepting calls in different worlds simultaneously, each one must use a different port.

The default port for chats is 4050.


Note: Available in version 3.37 onwards.


VBscript example
ChatAcceptCalls 0  ' use the default port
ChatAcceptCalls 4051  ' use port 4051
Jscript example
ChatAcceptCalls (0);  // use the default port
ChatAcceptCalls (4051);  // use port 4051
PerlScript example
ChatAcceptCalls (0);  # use the default port
ChatAcceptCalls (4051);  # use port 4051
Python example
world.ChatAcceptCalls (0)  # use the default port
world.ChatAcceptCalls (4051)  # use port 4051
Lua example
ChatAcceptCalls (0)  -- use the default port
ChatAcceptCalls (4051)  -- use port 4051
Lua notes
The Port argument is optional. If omitted it defaults to 4050.
Returns eChatAlreadyListening: We are already accepting calls.
eCannotCreateChatSocket: We cannot do that, probably the port is in use.
eOK: Now accepting calls.
Introduced in version 3.37
