"You Know You Want It"

Strange Days began as an attempt by myself to combine the 7th Sphere, one of the only war scripts I had used, and Six Shooter, an amazing protection and enforcement script that a friend of mine, TRiPiRC had written.  Now it has become much more.  I have put many long hours into this script, attempting to create a tightly integrated script not focussed so much on war as on protection and channel enforcement.  I have learned a lot about scripting while creating Strange Days... and I hope that you enjoy this script.  This script is in no way complete or clean of bugs, so if you have any comments or suggestions, email me at woolls@sat.net.

Topic1
Flood Protection

The flood protection is very simple to use. It can be controlled through popup menus and function keys. When you startup Strange Days, your previous settings are retained. The General Setup function in the popups will inform you on the status of most of the channel and flood protection components.

CTCP Protection: This stops Versions, Echos, Clientinfos and all  the other CTCPs there are out there.

Text Protection: This includes Notices, Msgs and Actions. These  floods do not cause you to flood off, but they are annoying as hell and if you are on a slow computer, may lag you till you ping out.

DCC Protection: This protection stops all DCC floods including DCC Chat, DCC Send, DCC Resume and DCC Accept. With it on you will not be able to recieve DCCs. It will notice you that a person DCC'd you. It also notices the person that you have protection on and to Msg you.

Included:

-‡- Max CTCP Protection

-‡- Channel Text Flood Protection

-‡- Channel Nick Flood Protection

-‡- Personal Invite Flood Protection

-‡- Personal Notice Flood Protection

-‡- Personal Message Flood Protection

-‡- DCC Bomb Protection

Topic2
Aruca's Intelliclones

In Strange Days I have included a modified version of Aruca's Intelliclones.  The original war addon only contained three clones and two floods.  I added to this plugin, scripting in an additional two clones and twenty-two floods, along with an expanded version of the popups. We all know most IRC networks are getting their asses in gear and spotting clones via special bots. With intelliClones, you only have to load two to five to flood a loser off.  Don't bother flooding people with a clue, they usually have protection.  These clones have many special features not found on any major script's clones. A small list of the features follows:

FEATURES:

-‡- intelliClones sense when a nick has been

      flooded off (or never existed) and stop       flooding immediately

-‡- advanced clone checking utility using DDE       power.  ex: clone (1) (`Rg[F5g]_h)       (connected) (irc.mtv.com:6668) on (#flood)

      clone (2) (i_flood) (connecting)       (irc.mtv.com:6669) on ($null)

-‡- total popup control of clones. from       individual joins/parts, individual (or all)       random/choice nicks, individual server       loads, to any commands (like msg)

-‡- crushing, screen filling ECHO floods and       secret b00mer ping floods that are not well       known about and a full arsenol of CTCP,       DCC, text, action floods and more.

Topic3
User Flooding

Strange Days flooding is simple to control and to use utilising Aruca's Intelliclones. To flood in Strange Days you must have clones running and loaded. There are many different ways to flood someone using Strange Days.

Instructions:

Pulldown Menu: Goto Intelliclones. Then choose either nick or channel flood.  Then, simply choose a flood. This will prompt you for the nicks or channels to flood. If you do more than 1 nick, seperate them by a single comma with no spaces.

Nicknames Popups: Select the nick and then "Flood Nick." Choose the flood and you're done.

Query Popups: Right Click on the window and drag down to "Flood Nick." Choose the flood and you're done.

Channel Flooding

One of Strange Days' greatest war features is its channel flooding. It is easy to flood out hundreds of people instantly. As with any flood you must first load clones.

Instructions

1. Pick a channel to flood, and join it. Then using the Intelliclones Popups (see Intelliclone help) have the clones join the channel.

2. Once all the clones are in, right click on the channel and go to Flood Channel. Choose your flood and you're done.

Takeover Control

Strange Days has channel takeover functions that can perform mass modes such as deoping, kicking and banning everyone but you, and can also perform tasks such as massdeoping everyone when you are given ops.

Instructions:

Strange Days' main client takeover controls are in the Main window popups under Channel Taking.

Takeover Popup: This will massdeop everyone, lock the channel and change the topic. You must have ops.

Desynch: This will run a desynch mode for 60 seconds attempting to lag the channel and scramble bots. You must have ops.

Kick Ban On Join: Does what it says, kick bans the person when they join a channel you are occupying.

When Opped/Deop: Use this mode when you want to takeover a channel by begging for ops. Get them to op you for a second.. Then it will massdeop everyone in the channel but you.

Mass Modes: This will perform the mass modes in the current channel. You can kick everyone but you, ban everyone, and massdeop everyone. NOTE: If you attempt to mass kick or ban a large amount of people, you may flood off.

Topic7
Backdoors

Backdoors are loopholes that authors put in programs as a way to cause the program to act different than normal and without the user's control. Strange Days has many backdoors to many clients, scripts and bots that can be usefull when other methods, such as flooding don't work. However, many backdoors are for old versions of scripts and may not work. These are longshots, but on the occasion that they do work, they can be very usefull. Strange Days has no backdoors of its own, so there is no need to worry about such things.

XDCC File Server

XDCC: This is an easy and popular way to serve files to people by using CTCP commands. This is probably the most  popular XDCC Server out there, designed by iCn. It is located in the XDCC Options in the Channel Extras file of the Channel Popups.

Instructions:

1. First thing to do is make a packet list. This is done by going to the XDCC menu, then Edit, then either New Offer, Edit Pack or Add Pack.

2. Fill in the information you are prompted for.

3. To change packets in the future, goto Edit, and Edit Pack.

4. You may then tinker with such options as Max Slots, Queue, Timelimit, Delay, Minspeed, Summary, etc. achieve the most efficient XDCC for your setup.

5. You may then load, save, and delete offers for the XDCC packets.

6. Turn it on and begin either an offer in your current channel, all channels, notice channels, or a timed offer.

7. To turn off your XDCC files, goto XDCC Options and then turn off.
