I've recently started playing with the IRC bot that is built into the server. Basically, it allows you to relay chat between the server and an IRC room and back. This is pretty cool by itself. There is another interesting side effect: when you have multiple servers each running bots in the same IRC room, it allows people on different RE servers to chat with one another! In effect, this allows for a big global RE chatroom. This is cool while the community is small (obviously it won't scale very well). All of my servers are now running an IRC bot on
irc.freenode.net #Wazu
stop by and check it out if you have a moment.
If you'd like to add your server to our "global RE chat", simply add the following lines to your servinit.cfg:
- {l Code}: {l Select All Code}
ircfilter 2
ircaddrelay fn irc.freenode.net 6667 "YourServerName"
ircaddchan fn "#Wazu"
ircrelaychan fn "#Wazu" 3
ircconnect fn
Thanks
