(HOOKTYPE_PACKET). Replacing the 'text to be sent' to a client is
supported, which allows character(set) conversion in a module.
Note that modifying an incoming message by the hook is not supported.
user target string (nick!user@host:info), insteaf of doing it at like 5 places.
- Spamfilter target 'u' (user): the host field (nick!user@HOST:realname) is now escaped
with brackets if it's an IPv6 address, eg: blah!blah@[1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8]:hello, reported
by aquanight and others (#0003010).
- Renamed unreal32docs.tk.html to unreal32docs.tr.html
- Module coders: Added HOOKTYPE_POST_SERVER_CONNECT (1 param: cptr) which is called when
a server connects, just like HOOTYPE_SERVER_CONNECT but this is actually called *after*
all clients and channels are synched. Obviously needed for some modules which must synch
data that refers to clients/channels that would otherwise not exist yet on the other side.
map the command '/BLAH 5' to 'NICK idiot5'. More info in docs on alias block.
- Modulized: badwords system (src/badwords.c is now gone) and StripColors/StripControlCodes
to m_message, multiple netsynch routines to m_server, send_list to m_list, a certain mode
routine to m_svsmode, all /MSG IRC.. webtv stuff to src/modules/webtv.c which is compiled
with m_message.
This means another ~1500 lines of code are now in modules (and thus can be upgraded on
the fly), which brings the total of modulized lines at 32K.
CALLBACKTYPE_CLOAK). This passes 'aClient *sptr, char *host' instead of only 'char *host'
to the cloaking module, which can be useful if you need to cloak on something other than
IP/host. Suggested by fez (#0002275).
Module may still provide only CALLBACKTYPE_CLOAK though, in fact this is what the official
cloaking module does. So no updating of cloaking modules needed.
A side-effect of this "extra cloaking" callback is that we needed to change make_virthost()
which now has an extra parameter in front, and another side-effect is that calling the
CALLBACKTYPE_CLOAK may not work since only *_EX might be available. To my knowledge there
are very few modules (only 1 I know) that will have a problem due to this, so sounds like
an affordable tradeoff.
clients connecting trough a CGI:IRC gateway that is in cgiirc { }. This might also fix a bug
where (g)zlines were not applied to CGI:IRC clients, reported by devil (#0002850).
- Redid some net synching code to make it more efficient (#2716).
- Fixed spamfilter crash problem: the action 'viruschan' is now no longer incompatible
with target 'user'. Reported by Monk (#0002570).
and 2000 lines total that can be hotfixed if needed ;). The effort involved in moving all
this sucks a lot though :/. This might need some more testing to make sure it doesn't break
anything.
- Updated support OS list in documentation.
- Redid include dependencies in Makefile, this makes things safer because on any .h change it
would force a recompile of all files, but it could mean things will be a bit slower for us
coders unless we tweak it later on.
- Changed whois a bit to print less useless results.
- Added several indicators to the "detect binary incompatible modules"-system such as detecting
of a ziplinks module on non-ziplinks (on windows this is ok however), nospoof module on a
a server without nospoof server, etc. Hopefully this will help some people preventing odd
crashes because they did not recompile or (re)install modules properly.
- Added './unreal backtrace', so far this has only been tested on Linux and FreeBSD.
- Fixed a bug making ./Config not load the previously stored settings on Solaris 10 and
probably other Unixes, reported by lion-o (#0002474).
- Modulized a lot of commands and related subfunctions: NICK (750 lines), USER (200),
MODE (2300), WATCH (250), JOIN (600), PART (250), MOTD (100), OPERMOTD (100),
BOTMOTD (100), LUSERS (100). More will follow soon (probably including more subfunctions
related to existing commands).
work just the same as the HOOKTYPE_LOCAL_* variants).
- Module coders: HOOKTYPE_REMOTE_CONNECT is now also called during net-merge. You can use
IsSynched(sptr->srvptr) to find out if it's called due to a net merge (0) or a connect (1).
- Added spamfiler 'user' (u) target. This regex is checked against nick!user@host:realname
when a user connects. This makes it easy to ban drones with simple patterns.
For example: '/spamfilter add u gzline 86400 Drone[0-9]+!.+@.+:Drone[0-9]'
would kill any drones that have both a nick and realname with 'Drone' followed by digits.
because it's slightly faster (already replaced all of them in src/s_kline.c).
GetIP(acptr) will return the ip for local users and remote users that support NICKIP,
it returns NULL for remote users that are on non-NICKIP servers (or have non-NICKIP
servers along their path).
- internal: tkl_add_line now returns aTKline *
- Added some more hooks:
- HOOKTYPE_TKL_ADD [aClient *cptr, aClient *sptr, aTKline *tk]
- HOOKTYPE_TKL_DEL [aClient *cptr, aClient *sptr, aTKline *tk]
NOTE: 'NULL, NULL, tk' is used for *lines that are removed due to expiring
- HOOKTYPE_LOCAL_KILL [aClient *sptr, aClient *target, char *comment]
- Added release notes (no, we won't release 3.2.1 anytime soon.. just updating ;p).
- Added various extra messages to make it a bit more easier for people who are
upgrading (win32 commands.dll, cloaking mod).
- Made win32 ssl<->non-ssl modules binary compatible.
- Added ssl/non-ssl check in Mod_Version on *NIX.
- Added set::options::flat-map: This makes all servers look like they are linked
directly to the server you are on (/map, /links), thus you cannot see which server
is linked to which ("hopcount"). This can make it a bit harder for kiddies to find
any 'weak spots' (which server to attack/[D]DoS). Obviously opers will always
see the real map.
value should now be one of EX_*:
EX_DENY : disallowed, except for oper override
EX_ALLOW : allowed
EX_ALWAYS_DENY : disallowed, even in case of operoverride (eg for
operlevel modes like +A).
Note that it's backward compatible since TRUE/EX_ALLOW=1 and FALSE/EX_DENY=0.
- Fixed a few bugs with oper override & extended chanmodes, for example
chanmode +T could not be set by a globop w/can_override and non-+hoaq.
- Added snomasks 'S' (Spamfilter) which notifies you of any spamfilter matches.
- [internal] always return after spamfilter match, don't continue looping trough
targets list (eg in case of: /msg #a,#b,#c spamspam), otherwise you would get
duplicate notification msgs.
- Added SENDSNO server command, similar to SENDUMODE but for snomasks, this is
used by the spamfilter snomask (+S) so you get network-wide notifications.
- Added "compiled for.." versioning system, this way a beta17 module can't be loaded
on beta18, etc... People often forgot to recompile their modules or had old ones
somewhere by mistake, therefore crashing after upgrades... this should fix this
(in the future). Module coders don't have to do anything for making this work,
it's done automatically (via modules.h).
These bans look like ~<type>:<stuff>. Currently the following bans are available:
~q: quiet bans (ex: ~q:*!*@blah.blah.com). People matching these bans can join
but are unable to speak, unless they have +v or higher.
~c: channel bans (ex: ~c:#idiots). People in #idiots are unable to join the channel.
~r: gecos (realname) bans (ex: ~r:*Stupid_bot_script*). If the realname of a user
matches this then (s)he is unable to join.
NOTE: an underscore ('_') matches both a space (' ') and an underscore ('_'),
so this ban would match 'Stupid bot script v1.4'.
These bantypes can also be used in the channel exception list (+e).
+e ~r:*w00t* makes anyone with 'w00t' in their realname able to join,
and +e ~c:#admin makes anyone in #admin able to join, etc..
This system allows modules to add extended bantypes too.
This feature requires some additional testing, also the module interface will
probably be changed in the next few weeks, and perhaps more extended bans will
be added before next release.. we'll see...
- Normal users can now get a list, versioninfo will be hidden however.
- Opers get some additional details like hooks and commandoverride's.
- Opers can use /module <servername> to get a remote list of loaded modules.
- Added flag [3RD] to show it's a 3rd party module
This was requested by by quite some people because serveradmins started to load
"spy modules" without clearly mentioning it in the MOTD (which is highly unethical
and in some countries even illegal due to privacy law). Also the remote module
list was requested by quite a few opers.
Sure, this isn't a 100% guarantee but at least if someone goes hiding stuff
then it's clear what their intentions are (and thus will be refused support, ..).
- Changed emailaddr in help window at windows to unreal-users mailinglist.
- Made the cloak mismatch msg during linking a bit more scary.
- Added comment to 'Install as a service' option in installer to help n00bs a bit.
