I'm using DiscordJS v14

What part of it do you know how to do?

analog grotto Apr 17, 2024, 5:31 AM

#

I need to know how I can tell the bot when a person joins the vc and how to tell it to update in real time

#

so like every minute that a person is in vc back in the days we would only use the join and leave to calculate the total amount of time that someone was in VC

#

event (event) Client#voiceStateUpdate
Emitted whenever a member changes voice state - e.g. joins/leaves a channel, mutes/unmutes.

#

yeah thats the old school way

#

oh hold on

#

I think I might see what you're saying/hinting at

#

I could do a loop maybe of every second and then check the time then do it

#

yea i mean you dont really need to use voice if the only thing you care about is knowing when someone joins or leaves a vc

#

you can have a collection or map with a user id and a timestamp

#

Map(userid, joinedvcTimestamp) then when a user leaves a vc, check if there is a timestamp available, create another one with the current time and do some math to calculate whatever value you want

#

analog grotto yeah thats the old school way

What’s old school about that? That’s literally the event that emits when they join or leave

real tangle What’s old school about that? That’s literally the event that emits when they jo...

also says it emits when they mute and unmute

#

real tangle Apr 17, 2024, 5:52 AM

#

But you asked about when they join and leave. So that’s how you get informed about that. Then check if the channelId on oldState is null and newState isn’t (join) or other way around (leave)

analog grotto Apr 17, 2024, 5:53 AM

#

do you guys think I should just use an array for this

real tangle Apr 17, 2024, 5:54 AM

#

night chasm you can have a collection or map with a user id and a timestamp

👆

analog grotto Apr 17, 2024, 6:58 AM

#

how do I get it to not activate on mute and unmute and stuff

night chasm Apr 17, 2024, 7:14 AM

#

you are only interested on knowing whether or not they leave or join a vc

#

use the old and new voicestate to check whether or not voicestate.channel is null or not and proceed according to that

#

if (!oldvoice.channel && newvoice.channel) means they joined a vc

#

if you negate that statement it means they left

analog grotto Apr 17, 2024, 7:16 AM

#

night chasm `if (!oldvoice.channel && newvoice.channel)` means they joined a vc

are you saying to nest them in this

night chasm Apr 17, 2024, 7:17 AM

#

uhh yea i guess, that way you ignore anything else

#

also if (channelId === ChannelId) { makes 0 sense

#

unless ChannelId is defined somewhere else

analog grotto Apr 17, 2024, 7:17 AM

#

it is

#

sorry but uh what would even be the old voice channel

night chasm Apr 17, 2024, 7:19 AM

#

oldvoice is your oldstate

analog grotto Apr 17, 2024, 7:19 AM

oh
