Emergency lockdown
When a raid is already in your channels, you need everything quiet now and a clean way back later. n!lockdown does both halves: it locks the server in one go and remembers what every channel looked like before.
What you get
- Denies Send Messages for everyone on every text channel
- Raises anti-raid to its highest alert level at the same time
- n!unlock restores each channel’s previous permissions exactly
- Lock and unlock from the bot or from the dashboard
How it works
Nighthawk saves each channel’s own @everyone overwrite before changing it, so unlocking brings back slowmode channels, read-only announcements and anything else you had set up, instead of flattening them.
The anti-raid alert level you had before the lockdown is remembered too, and restored when you unlock, so you are not left on high alert by accident.
Lockdown state is shared between the bot and the dashboard, so whoever sees the raid first can start it and anyone on your team can end it from either side.
