Make sure you have read the rules and guidelines on proper behavior and use of our IRC channel.

A bot, or robot on IRC is an automated or semi-automated client, capable of using scripts for various purposes. There are two bots on the IRC channel of the game.

Hebizuka is the first bot. She is a semi-automated client and the most talkative. Her name comes from Hebizuka Jinkou, a Game Master. The name was chosen because of the commands she was built with - in Mazeworld, Hebizuka is supposedly the Random Number God(dess).

EliasBot is another bot, which uses several additional useful commands to play Mazeworld with. His name comes from Elias Keiban, a Game Master. The name was chosen because, unlike the Hebizuka bot, Elias never speaks except by responding to commands, akin to the Mazeworld Elias, who is never seen nor heard until the Endgame.

Hebizuka's commands

!mdice x y - Rolls a xdy dice. Replace x and y by numbers. The most commonly used way is !mdice 2 6.
!mhebidice - Makes Hebizuka roll herself dice. She tends to be extremely lucky.
!miwytl - I Want You To Lose. When used, the user must be absolutely prepared for the worst.
!mrooms1, !mrooms3, to roll 1 or 3 new room numbers and a new room style.
!Mcard1, !Mcard2, !Mcard4 - To play the various games of the gambler.
!MSerial - Generates a random serial number. It is a string of 4 digits.
!kira - Unleash Hebi's inner cuteness.

!Mfrag series commands - Roll the amount of frag shrapnel that is going to hit targets with the following:
- !MfragM67 - M67 grenade (0-12)
- !MfragVOG - VOG-25 grenade (0-14)
- !MfragM26 - M26 grenade (0-12)
- !MfragMK2 - MkII grenade (0-15)
- !MfragRGD - RGD-5 grenade (0-18)
- !MfragSMAW - SMAW 83.5mm rocket (0-26)

!GenHuman, which generates a Physio code for human characters.
!GenYoukai, which generates a Physio code for the following youkai and all their variants (hostile, perverted…): Amanojaku, Bakeneko (human), Doji, Goryou, Hakutaku, Jorougumo, Kappa, Kasha, Kitsune, Kishin, Nekomusume, Nure-onna, Oni, Satori, Shinigami, Tanuki, Tengu, Yousei.

!WpnSpec, which generates a set of random accessories, and is meant to be associated to a weapon. Depending on the results given, the rolled accessories will be attempted to be generated. If an accessory type is not available or not possible for the weapon the roll is done for, then no accessory of this type is mounted. The following table indicates which number corresponds to which accessory in every type.

Roll	Muzzle	Optic	Front	Feeding
1	None	None	None	Standard
2	None	None	None	Standard
3	None	None	UGL	Type 1
4	None	None	USG	Type 2
5	Silencer/Choke	Reflex sight	Foregrip	Type 3
6	Muzzle brake	Scope	Bipod	Type 4

NOTE: The command is now commonly replaced by a quicker version: @roll 4#1d6, which prompts EliasBot (see below) to separately roll 1d6 4 times.
NOTE 2: To complete speccing, one must also randomly roll the maintenance status of the firearm by typing @roll 2#1d101-1; it will prompt EliasBot to roll two values meant to be interpreted as percentage values; the first one representing durability, the second one, reliability. If a "0" is rolled in either statistic, treat it as having exactly 1 point left instead of 0.

Explanation of the various feeding types:

Standard is what the weapon usually comes with (the standard magazine/feeding system).
Type 1 is the smallest type of magazine in a family of at least 2.
Type 2 is the largest type of magazine in a family of 2, or the second in a family of 3.
Type 3 is the largest type of magazine in a family of 3, or the third in a family of 4.
Type 4 is the largest type of magazine in a family of 4.

If a weapon doesn't have enough magazine types, and the rolled type is too high or not corresponding, then it is considered to be "Standard". For example, there are only two types of Galil magazines (35 and 65 round); if Type 3 is rolled, since there is no more than 2 types of magazines in this family, then the standard one (the 35-round one) is selected.
