Notes

Deviations from the official dAmn protocol

• Handshake sends a parameter: server=servername and version (For clients to be able to detect if they are connected to Demon)
• Demon does not send an error if you use a channel other than main for msg/npmsg/action, It instead sends out a recv packet with the new channel (IE: msg background)

Login System Protocol

• The login server is running on port 3901.
• The protocol is VERY Similar to dAmn's protocol.
• Login packet:

  login username
  password=password
  
  

• Create packet:

  create username
  password=password
  
  

• Login response packet:

  login username
  e=ok|failure reason
  pk=pk (If e=ok)
  
  

• Create response packet:

  create username
  e=ok|failed
  
  

• Note: The login system will not give an explicit error for security purposes.
