Embed is only sending once every time the slash command is ran every active session

[wet lance]

By every active session I mean every time the bot is online.

I have a slash command that is like an 8ball command. It isnt finished since this is inly the testing version but It only sends the embed once then if I run it a 2nd time it says "Application didn't respond" with no errors in the console.

Here is my code:

client.once('interactionCreate', async (cmd) => {
    if (cmd.commandName === '8ball') {
        var finishedCheck = false;
        const randomInteger = randInt(0, 2)
        const embedBall = new EmbedBuilder()
        embedBall.setTitle('🎱 8ball')
        embedBall.setDescription('The 8ball has been rolled!')

        if(randomInteger == 0) {
            embedBall.addFields(
                {name: "8Ball's response", value: 'yes!'},
                

            )
        }
        if(randomInteger == 1) {
            embedBall.addFields(
                {name: "8Ball's response", value: 'no!'},
                

            )

        }
        if(randomInteger == 2) {
            embedBall.addFields(
                {name: "8Ball's response", value: 'maybe...'},
                

            )

        }
       
        await cmd.reply("The 8ball has spoken...")
        await cmd.channel.send({embeds: [embedBall]})
    
        

    }
})

I've tried: Resetting my bot's token, only using interaction.reply

Maybe it is because the command has an option that is being un used?

You have client.once, which is for the event to only be emitted once

You should use client.on

My copilot plugin adds stuff onto my code sometimes. Thank you for pointing that out!

Also do you know why sometimes the "yes, no, maybe" section is sometimes left blank? I assume it is because the number hasnt generated in time. Maybe I can get around that with have a boolean that is set to true when the number is generated and then check iof the bool is true and if it is then send the embed?

[chrome fern]

The only thing i can think of, is that the randInt function isn't returning any of those values you check

[wet lance]

It sometimes returns "yes"

[chrome fern]

I'm talking about the function itself, it may be returning something that isn't 0, 1 nor 2

[wet lance]

the fix was adding a check AND updating the function. My subtraction was the opposite way around.

[chrome fern]

No more issues then?

[wet lance]

Yep!

[chrome fern]

Alright 👍
