new modes
- Add umode +C (no CTCP).
- Add umode +V, users with this mode set will never recieve channel invites
from other users.
- Add umode +B which identifies users as being bots.
- Add umode +G which disallows users from messaging you unless you're both
on at least one channel together. This can be "overridden" with /accept.
- Add cmode +T which blocks all notices to the channel.
- Add cmode +D which blocks all actions (/me's) from being sent to the channel.
- Add cmode +E which disallows channel ops from kicking users.
- Add cmode +N which disallows users from changing their nick while they're on
a channel with this mode set.
- Add cmode +K (norepeat) which will block repeated messages if a user sends
the same message multiple times before any other users send to the channel.
- Add cmode +G which blocks messages containing 50% or more capital letters
from being sent to the channel.
- Add cmode +J which disallows a kicked user from rejoining within 'X' seconds
of them being kicked, where 'X' is the variable of the channel::kick_no_rejoin_time
configuration option.
- Add cmodes +a and +h (owner and halfop, respectively). There are 2 extra
prefixes to more finely-grain the status of staff members in your channels.
They can be enabled or disabled in the configuration file with the options
channel::use_halfop and channel::use_owner.
new configuration options
- auth::autojoin - This option will specify what channels users in a matching
auth {} block will automatically join on connect to your server/network.
- auth::autojoin_opers - This option will specify what channels opers in a
matching auth {} block will automatically join on oper up (/oper).
- channel::cycle_host_change - This option defines whether or not users
will cycle (part and rejoin) the channels they're in when their host changes.
This can be annoying to some people, but disabling it can cause client desyncs.
- channel::host_in_topic - This option defines whether or not a host setter's
full host or just their nick will be shown on /TOPIC.
- channel::use_local_channels - With this option, you can enable/disable
support for local channels on your server/network.
- channel::exemptchanops - This option defines what channel modes channel
operators are exempt from, channel modes usable in this option are: cCDTNGK.
- general::secret_channels_in_whois - This option defines whether or not opers
can see secret channels that a user is in when whoising them. Secret channels
will show up in the whois prefixed with *. If this option is disabled, opers
will still be able to see secret channels a user is in with the /SPYWHOIS
command.
- Enabled a few popular extensions by default, added a few extensions to the
example config files that were missing, add a few more services aliases
by default, enable ip_cloaking by default and get rid of all the old
ip_cloaking modules.
opers
- Users' umodes are shown when you whois them.
- swhois support - Adds a mostly free-form line of text to opers' whois
if one is set in their operator {} block.
- custom operstring - Instead of showing the IRC operator or IRC administrator
oper strings, you can customize what it shows by privset or
for a specific operator.
- host-on-oper - This will be a option settable in both privset block and
operator block that defines what host a operator gets upon oper-up.
- operoverride - Oper override works very differently in ShadowIRCd compared
to all other IRCd's which support oper override. In ShadowIRCd, to be able
to override, you must have the oper:override privledge and you must then
set umode +p on yourself. The p umode will automatically expire and un-set
itself after a time set in the configuration option general::expire_override_time.
- immune - Immune depends on the chm_no_oper_kick extension being enabled.
An oper can set +M on a channel (which that channel's ops and users can not
see, but other opers can), then when the oper joins that channel with override
(umode +p) set on themselves, the channel's ops will be unable to kick the oper
from the channel.
other
- Changed default NICKLEN to 31 (from 15) to fit more closely with other
IRCd's.
- Rebrand many things from Charybdis to ShadowIRCd.
- Move the m_force module to extensions.
