Could you run this and post a screenshot of the console window (ctrl+E)? I'd like to see the output once you've reproduced the bug ofc.

Here you go! I got the same problem (this only works if the private message window down to the right is empty btw). I reproduced the bug from the marked console line and down.

I suspect this is being caused by another script. Can you yet and reproduce the bug on an empty script?

The problem is still there when I open a empty windbot and only use the code that I posted above. I can clearify that its the private message HUD script (was a bit drunk when I posted this originaly) and it seems to only fill up when you talk in the NPC channel. When the private message HUD is filled (8 lines) it stops filling it up. I havent had the chance of testing it with real PMs since I dont know anyone playing on that server. Hopefully this helps a bit and clearifies some stuff a bit!

@jajjje Did you try this same script on WindBot for Tibia 10? It seems to be pretty broken from what I read.

Maybe @RoxZin xD can give us some insight, considering it is his script.

Well it worked on windbot for tibia 9.99 (or whatever version was before tibia 10). And this bug is just when I use WindBot for tibia 11 :)
Btw, awesome work with the new windbot client! This is the only thing ive noticed so far and its a really small (unnecessary) thing really, but useful ^^

The script originally doesn't have that, so I got no idea.

@jajjje

I'm closing this in favor of message's .channel property returning empty string as it better describes the root issue.

Thanks for the report.
