I've set up an ejabberd server that I want to use as a game server only.
What things do I have to pay attention to regarding
I want to enable communication between local users only
no server-to-server communication
no communication to JIDs from other servers
modules such as "IRC transport" must be disabled (How do I do that?)
A game will consist of a room with a maximum of 8 players. How can I achieve that? I thought I could log all users in as "table1" and set their username as the resource, but I don't want the first user to be kicked when a ninth user joins ...
Will PubSub be suitable for the game server? I guess yes, because when user A sends something, I want it to be distributed to users B, C, D etc. and the information doesn't need to be stored on the server.
I hope someone can help me, and I'm sure this question and the answers will be helpful to others as well :) Thank you very much in advance!

Simple, in ejabberd.cfg remove the listener ejabberd_s2s
Simple, in ejabberd.cfg remove mod_irc
Idea: if the game is controlled by a robot, then you can remove restrictions in ejabberd, and let your robot be a room owner: he can grant or revoke voice to room occupants by sending XMPP stanzas to ejabberd, see XEP-0045. That way your robot controls that there are only 8 occupants with voice as maximum.
Yes, Pubsub and MUC would work for your task.
Thank you! Doesn't removing
Thank you!
Doesn't removing "mod_irc" mean that ejabberd should use the defaults? This would mean I have to disable "mod_irc" somehow, e.g. with empty brackets. Is that correct?
And for "s2s", I can only find the following two rules in my configuration file:
{5269, ejabberd_s2s_in, [{shaper, s2s_shaper}, {max_stanza_size, 131072}]}.{access, s2s_shaper, [{fast, all}]}.Do I have to change anything or delete them?
Yes, simply delete the lines
Yes, simply delete the lines about mod_irc and s2s.
