Function

and the error?

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:00 PM

#

No error, this output instead:

#

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:00 PM

#

and what is the intended output?

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:01 PM

#

The roman 5 inside the authorIcon field

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:01 PM

#

and where should it be displayed
since you already have a image set

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:02 PM

#

I mean

#

As I said

#

in the author icon

#

lol

#

there's an author icon field isn't there

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:04 PM

#

yeah

tiny larkBOT Mar 28, 2022, 6:04 PM

#

<:_:874569335308431382> MessageEmbed#setAuthor()
Sets the author of this embed.

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:05 PM

#

wait so

#

uh

#

just a sec im unsure why its not working

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:06 PM

#

Lol

#

same

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:06 PM

#

messageProperties.files = [authorIcon]

#

oh

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:07 PM

#

what

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:07 PM

#

yeah so the image is in the message and not in the embed

#

yeah that makes a lot of sense

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:07 PM

#

lol what the

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:08 PM

#

authorObject.iconURL = `attachment://${tier}`
and unless im stupid, the attachment is set to a number

#

not a file

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:09 PM

#

so what should I do exactly?

#

I feel so dumb rn lol

#

it still gives the same output

#

so, you see the title goes in

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:11 PM

#

so we have this

authorObject.iconURL = `attachment://${tier}`
messageProperties.files = [authorIcon]

my guess would be that the goal was

authorUbject.iconURL = authorIcon

(i think, i have a feeling that isnt how iconURL works)

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:12 PM

#

lmao

#

ok let me try

#

what you said

#

I'll remove newMessageAttachment now

#

Bruh

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:15 PM

#

yeah thing is

#

you dont have a url for the images

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:15 PM

#

Why does it matter reee

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:15 PM

#

best idea is to probably just throw them all in a channel and copy the links

#

so you can actually put them in an embed

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:16 PM

#

Yeah but that's so dumb :c

#

I wish I could do it the simpler way

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:16 PM

#

there most likely is a better way

#

exept im stupid

#

lemme just check something real quick

tiny larkBOT Mar 28, 2022, 6:17 PM

#

<:_:874569296821501952> MessageAttachment
Represents an attachment in a message.

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:17 PM

#

yeah probably authorUbject.iconURL = authorIcon.url would work

#

i hope

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:17 PM

#

LOL ok

#

So, we didn't get any errors, but the icon isn't there. Should I try resizing it?

#

var authorIcon = new MessageAttachment(`C:/Users/jvcal/Documents/Cool Images/Tiers/${tier}.png`)
authorObject.iconURL = authorIcon.url```

ruby hollow Mar 28, 2022, 6:19 PM

#

no thats definitely not the issue

sonic star Mar 28, 2022, 6:19 PM

#

weird thing is

#

this above is working:

#

var authorObject = {}
if (npc.title) {
var title = npc.title
authorObject.name = title
}

#

"O juiz do Tempo" is the title

#

but then when we go to the iconURL part it just doesn't

zenith dock Mar 28, 2022, 6:32 PM

#

looks like you didnt do what i said initially

#

                    var authorIcon = new MessageAttachment(`C:/Users/jvcal/Documents/Cool Images/Tiers/${tier}.png`, 'icon.png')
                    authorObject.iconURL = `attachment://${authorIcon.name}`
                    messageProperties.files = [authorIcon]
