MRC How to get Working

[fc757]

I've been trying to get MRC working on my BBS. It seems to connect and I can't see anything. I also don't see myself on another BBS running MRC.

This is what it looks like on my side, /? or any commands don't display anything:

This is how my MCI codes are:

This is what I see on your BBS:

this is my config:

---

chatServers: {
    // multi relay chat settings. No need to sign up, just enable it.
    // More info: https://bbswiki.bottomlessabyss.net/index.php?title=MRC_Chat_platform
    mrc: {
        enabled: true
        serverHostname: mrc.bottomlessabyss.net
        serverPort: 5000
        retryDelay: 10000
        multiplexerPort: 5000
    }
}

this is my menu config for it:

    mrc: {
        desc: MRC Chat
        module: mrc
        art: MRC
        config: {
            cls: true

            //  max lines kept in scrollback buffer
            maxScrollbackLines: 500
        }
        form: {
            0: {
                mci: {
                    MT1: {
                                                    mode: preview
                                                    autoScroll: true
                                            }
                    ET2: {
                        argName: inputArea
                        submit: true
                        focus: true
                    }
                }
                actionKeys: [
                    {
                        keys: [ "escape" ]
                        action: @systemMethod:prevMenu
                    }
                    {
                        keys: [ "down arrow", "up arrow", "page up", "page down" ]
                        action: @method:movementKeyPressed
                    }
                ]
                submit: {
                    *: [
                        {
                            value: { inputArea: null }
                            action: @method:sendChatMessage
                        }
                    ]
                }
            }
        }
    }

As always, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I updated my theme.hjson from the latest github entry and I can now see people, but I can't seem to message anyone or see anything in the chat window message wise. Looks like it does the same thing on your bbs. I guess it's a work in progress. :)

Interesting, they must have decided to change the protocol. It was working very recently - I use it! I'll try and take a look, but I won't have much time for a few weeks I imagine.

@fc757 I did hop on my board yesterday and try MRC for a bit and all was well. Can you create some logs?
