Castaway has worked well for me but as of late I have noticed that the bot will not respond the first time it is given a command. Upon a repeat of the command he kicks into action. I have the latest version of Castaway and Decal is up to date. It wasn't the latest patch either as this just started happening the last couple of days. And I haven't added anything or modified anything on the computer in the interum. Any idea what might be causing this? Are others having this problem?

No ideas here, haven't seen that happen at all. Anything in the log files?

I've had this happen on my bots from time to time.

Used to happen to me a lot too. Tbh, I think it means your computer's a POS. Just had a tech guy clean the dust outta mine... now it overheats less and it happens less.

I've seen it on and off on at least 2 different bot's at our clans mansion, tho I've been seeing it less recently...

I would be curious if people having this issue are also running other plugins at the same time.

Nope. Why would someone run other plugins on a bot?

Well I can't comment on the doublespeak, I can on the other plugins. I run alinco and DCS on my bot since I have clanmates drop items on the bot for storage, writs for the mansion, notes, harby items. alinco lets me have stack it all, and I like DCS for the armor to check colors.

Having seen more then one export I can vouch that people run multiple plugins on their bots.

This doublespeak has been around for YEARS with Castaway. I remember seeing this back in 2003.


And I got to admit, I've seen it less in recent years.


I don't remember a fix from back then. I do remember asking folks to just say a additional "help" command to the bot and then, try again. Things work fine after that.
