The /updatenl command can be used with the on quit/kick/part events to update the IAL and the channel nicknames list right away, otherwise, these are updated when the scripts finish

Synopsis

/updatenl

Switches

None

Parameters

None

Example

Let's suppose only A, B and C are in the channel #example. Suddendly, B parts. If we have this event, only triggering when $nick == $me (using the ! event prefix):

on !*:part:#example:{
  echo -a $nick($chan,0)
}

Can you guess the value of $nick($chan,0)? It will be 3, because the update are made after.

Now we change the event to:

on !*:part:#example:{
  echo -a $nick($chan,0)
  updatenl
  echo -a $nick($chan,0)
}

Which would echo 3 and 2.
