This whole code will print “hello world” at the end
no but seriously thats a lot of dedication
ancient nova
dude can anyone check my site out
cause the css doesn't appear to load sometimes
it should look like this
it looks like this for some reason most of the time though
sharp geyser
How are you loading your css
ancient nova
How are you loading your css
using some other website's CSS
should I make my own server for that?
sharp geyser
then you have to depend on it registering before your site renders fully
ancient nova
then you have to depend on it registering before your site renders fully
how can I fix that? will trying to access it with a post request work?
I mean if I create my own get request func
how do I read file with FS?
sharp geyser
ancient nova
doesn't work
forgot how to do that lol
is that not right?
ok managed to get it working, css doesn't load tho
sharp geyser
ok
so
why are you using fs if you are using express
express already has a way to render files
ancient nova
it does...?
ancient nova
ok.. why does the CSS doesn't work though
ancient nova
Look up static files
I already did
it told me to use the function I am using now
it doesn't work
sharp geyser
WEll first of all
you are doing it wrong
as you can already see from looking at literallyy the first example
express.static doesn't TELL it to use that file
it serves it
ancient nova
oh my b
sharp geyser
at an endpoint
ancient nova
I'll do it rn
sharp geyser
root
-public
--css
---styles.css
--js
---something.js
--view
---index.html
so then you do
app.use(express.static('public'))
and then you can freely use anything from the public folder in your html files
so yyou can do
<html>
<head>
<link ref="stylesheet" src="/css/styles.css" />
</head>
</html>
or however you do link tags for stylesheets
ancient nova
yeah ik
sharp geyser
and then in your express app you can do
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.sendFile('index.html')
})
or smth
wheat mesa
classic disk abuse reading from it every time a request is sent 😉
sharp geyser
Again, I haven't used express since 2018 though
so my memory about it is fuzzy
but that should be close to what you wanna do to serve a file
wheat mesa
mistyMemory* misty = new mistyMemory();
sharp geyser
yea I can

great tysm

but for your use case it is perfectly fine

I'm planning to make a dashboard pretty soon
anything I should know about?
ancient nova

ancient nova
oh yeah I planned to have a per-server dashboard type thing where they can access the same settings u can see in the -settings command
and a bunch of other info
as well as a command list
that going to be hard?
sharp geyser
Thats how a typical dashboard is
ancient nova
If you read the docs

Waffle sucks at backend ;)
ancient nova
ancient nova
backend for my old api literally allows sql injection because I'm not filtering any user input
xd
sharp geyser
one day you'll be using a language that I created for your backend buddy
If that day comes I will gladly do so
gotta support my friends
But I won't use a eso lang
wheat mesa
I hope to one day work on rust
sharp geyser
Go for it
wheat mesa
rustc kinda based
sharp geyser
Or make a name for yourself elsewhere
ancient nova
what's the point of using ''?
wheat mesa
wdym
sharp geyser
Wdym
wheat mesa
Depends on what context you're talking about
Single quotes in the majority of languages are for single characters
ancient nova
just casually, both seem to work the same
wheat mesa
Whereas double quotes usually indicate a string in most languages
In js they both have the same meaning
But in 99% of statically typed languages that symbolize different things
ancient nova
so it's just up to prefrence?
ancient nova
good to know
civic scroll
i always use ''
sharp geyser
a lot of other languages do what waffle said
ancient nova
wonder why people switched from using '' to ""
civic scroll
until react forced me to use "
sharp geyser
If you try and do 'Hello, World' in C#
ancient nova
all newer js scripts use ""
sharp geyser
it cries
wheat mesa
Because double quotes is traditionally for strings, people inherited that idea from other c-style languages
ancient nova
whereas older ones, mainly web based use ''
civic scroll
ima just only use backticks
wheat mesa
Same
civic scroll
same
wheat mesa
(To what misty said)
ancient nova
I only use `` when I need to display a variable in the string
sharp geyser
I have prettier to rewrite " to '
wheat mesa
same
sharp geyser
I only use `` when I need to display a variable in the string
As you should
back ticks are not useful other wise
so it is confusing for those who do it for literally everything
ancient nova
yea
sharp geyser
When I see backticks I expect string templating
ancient nova
also sometimes use it when I want my text on more lines
like this for example
without using the \n escape
guys what?
There was a problem with your request.
Invalid Form Body
message_reference: Unknown message
if (message.channel.nsfw === false && fetchResult.data.Media.isAdult) {
return message.reply({
content: `It appears that the anime you requested is an adult anime!\nTo view the information you can try executing the same query, but in a NSFW tagged channel.`
});
}
what's wrong?
sharp geyser
I am curious if that is even coming from that line specifically
wheat mesa
message_reference is the message you're replying to
sharp geyser
ah right
wheat mesa
message_reference is the message you're replying to
And by reply, I mean like this type of reply ^
sharp geyser
If the message was ephemeral or deleted it won't work no?
ancient nova
oh so he deleted the message right after sending?
too fast for the reply to even register?
ancient nova
civic scroll
When I see backticks I expect string templating
`i use backticks to escape "`
i'm sorry misty
ancient nova
💀
civic scroll
jk i do that now
civic scroll
ima use linq on you
sharp geyser
I just started
not too long ago
so
The first time I actually sat down and used C# was a few weeks ago when working on a game in unity
ancient nova
Well if the message is deleted
well he just used it to execute the command
so I'm trying to reply to it 
sharp geyser
you do C# and dk linq
OH WAIT
you mean that cursory
Yea

carmine summit
is there a way to do this without causing any max stack errors?
async function foo() {
//await do something
foo()
}
smells like bad code
what's your actual code you're using
you can probably refactor it
carmine summit
worker() {
if (this.x === this.dX && this.y === this.dY) {
this.path.push([this.x, this.y]);
this.ghost.changePath(this.path);
}
const validDirections = [...config.directions].filter((a) => !this.isBlocked(a) && ![this.lookingAt, config.opposites[this.lookingAt]].includes(a));
if (validDirections.length && Math.random() < 0.5) {
this.path.push([this.x, this.y]);
this.lookingAt = validDirections[Math.floor(Math.random() * validDirections.length)];
} else if (!validDirections.length && this.isBlocked(this.lookingAt)) {
this.path.push([this.x, this.y]);
this.lookingAt = config.opposites[this.lookingAt];
}
if (this.lookingAt === "w" && !this.isBlocked(this.lookingAt)) {
this.y = this.y - 0.5 * this.speed;
} else if (this.lookingAt === "a" && !this.isBlocked(this.lookingAt)) {
this.x = this.x - 0.5 * this.speed;
} else if (this.lookingAt === "s" && !this.isBlocked(this.lookingAt)) {
this.y = this.y + 0.5 * this.speed;
} else if (this.lookingAt === "d" && !this.isBlocked(this.lookingAt)) {
this.x = this.x + 0.5 * this.speed;
}
if (!this.done) this.worker();
}
well i had a condition on that the last time I did it
it was throwing an error so i scrapped it
vivid fulcrum
assuming it's a javascript worker (from the context of the code) it's actually not that bad
you can refactor that loop to a while(true)
recursive functions are expensive hence why they have a limit and error out at a certain point
what you can do is the while(true) approach, break out of it if this.done is true
tight zealot
how do you make it to were a search command can only happen if certain amount of credits
for economy bot
vivid fulcrum
you can probably further optimize this with requestAnimationFrame if in browser context, but i wouldn't know from that snippet alone
sharp geyser
before executing any code make sure they have the right amount of credits and do whatever after
if they don't have the right amount of credits tell em that
sharp geyser
I told you exactly how to do it though...
tight zealot
write just that one part down
vivid fulcrum
you won't get spoonfed here, here's some pseudo to help you out though
fetch user credits, store in a variable
if user credits < x amount
return
// rest of code execution
okie
civic scroll
is there a way to do this without causing any max stack errors?
```js
async fun...
function recursive(...args)
if (break_condition)
return;
// body
return recursive(...args);
}
you need at least one break condition and ensure that it gets hit before the max stack error does
carmine summit
I already added it, it still max stacks if it goes for long
lament rock
Does it need to run forever? Because if so, then you should be doing event based instead of potentially on the same tick
carmine summit
Does it need to run forever? Because if so, then you should be doing event based...
it stops after a condition is met
lament rock
How many steps does the fn take
can you show your code? Because you may be doing something horribly wrong and your exit condition is never met
the maximum call stack size is 11034 by default. If you ABSOLUTELY need to take ALL of the steps, then you can either use setImmediate so that node can clear the stack and call your function on the next tick or increase the stack size
increasing the stack size isn't recommended though
eternal osprey
hey, is there any way i could do this?
I was thinking of, checking if one of the voice channels has bot 1, and make bot 2 check that. If it is occupied, bot2 will join. If bot 2 is occupied, bot 3 will join and so on.
eternal osprey
hey, is there any way i could do this?
you now that i am not talking about the image but the text lol
sharp geyser
I mean
sure you can also do that
Just have the bots constantly observing the VoiceStateUpdate event or whatever its called
If a user joins a vc, and the bot joins after, you know that channel is already occupied by a bot
so if someone joins another vc make the other one in line join
eternal osprey
If a user joins a vc, and the bot joins after, you know that channel is already ...
Yeah i could also do that, but it's less secure as idk there might be another music bot in that channel that isn't ours
it's rather more secure to strictly check the ids of the bots
civic scroll
it's rather more secure to strictly check the ids of the bots
you can look for members that are currently in the vc and check if your bot is in there

What is the fastest way to read a single item from a large array. I need something to handle 365,397.911765 reads per second
quartz kindle
do you know the item index?
carmine summit
yep
quartz kindle
then array[index]
carmine summit
that is too slow
carmine summit
left is array reads, right is miliseconds from first read
is an object acting like an array gonna be faster?
quartz kindle
no
earnest phoenix
Arrays are objects with indexes as keys and elements as values, so it's not gonna change anything
carmine summit
will a smaller array be much faster?
eternal osprey
You're supposed to use the `setEmoji()` method to set a custom emoji
Love you
earnest phoenix
Love you too :)
carmine summit
is pathImageData[x + y * gameCanvas.width] going to be better than a 2d/3d array? isnt multiplication a resource intensive task?
earnest phoenix
will a smaller array be much faster?
Not really, accessing a specific array element with an index does not really depend on the size of the array as it knows where to exactly access in due time, so you can't get any faster than that
quartz kindle
math will always be faster than object access
carmine summit
this is going to be tough
maybe i need to find a way to decrease array reads. thanks though

earnest phoenix
You can initialize a set, when the winner is drawn; add their ID to the said set, on the next draw check if the ID of the user exists in that set, if it exists then redraw, otherwise draw that user as the winner
eternal osprey

I know i could define the embed globally and set the embed in each if statement,...
Using if statements to set them accordingly is the best approach for that, for example:
const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
.setColor(0x0033ff);
if (roles.length !== 0)
embed.addFields([
{
name: 'Roles',
value: roles.join(', '),
inline: false

]);

I already did it, thanks for helping me again voltrex!
I used cases actually
just cuz i liked the way they were stacked
const date = new Date();
const numOfHours = 2.5
date.setTime(date.getTime() + numOfHours * 60 * 60 * 1000);
console.log(date)```how do i encode this in the discord's unix way? so ``<t:unix:R> (<t:unix>)``You can just let the formatters bundled with discord.js handle that for you
eternal osprey
date.getTime i think right?
const date = new Date();
console.log(date.getTime())
const numOfHours = 2.5
date.setTime(date.getTime() + numOfHours * 60 * 60 * 1000);
// 👇️ Tue Mar 15 2022 09:25:30
console.log(date.getTime())```i see
earnest phoenix
import { time } from 'discord.js';
...
const date = ...;
console.log(time(date, 'R')); // <t:<TIME>:R>
oh
earnest phoenix
You need to get the time function from the Formatters class if you're still using v13
eternal osprey
.addField(`Ends:`, `${k4} <t:${newtime}:R> (<t:${newtime}>)`)```i tried doing this but it ain't working lolI am indeed using the v13
earnest phoenix
Then you can do
import { Formatters } from 'discord.js';
const { time } = Formatters;
...
const date = ...;
console.log(time(date, 'R'));
could i instead require it?
earnest phoenix
If you're using CJS instead of ESM, you can get it like this:
const { Formatters: { time } } = require('discord.js');
Show how you're using it
eternal osprey
.addField(`Ends:`, `${k4} ${time(newtime, 'R')}`)```const { Formatters: { time } } = require('discord.js');```What's the value of the newtime variable?
eternal osprey
19804308079657
earnest phoenix
You're supposed to pass the date instance in, in this case
eternal osprey
So I can't pass a timestamp?
earnest phoenix
Can you show us more of the code?
civic scroll
when you don't have intellisense
eternal osprey
const date = new Date();
const numOfHours = Number(numba)
date.setTime(date.getTime() + numOfHours * 60 * 60 * 1000);
let newtime = date.getTime()
console.log(time(newtime, 'R'))```this is how i am getting the newtimeinstead of getTime() should i just pass date?
civic scroll
it should have worked
earnest phoenix
You can just pass in the date variable to the method, but I think the timestamp in your case is invalid
earnest phoenix
Yeah your timestamp is messed up 
eternal osprey
it can't
eternal osprey
```js
const date = new Date();
const numOfHours = Number(numba)
...
look, numba in this function is 5100000ms
How the fuck does it return 500 years
ooowh woow
i am multiplying the ms by 60* 60 *1000
earnest phoenix
Yeah
earnest phoenix
Giveaway to get some bitches (in 500 years)
eternal osprey
wahahahhaha
wait so we now have the R type set
insn't there a t type as well?
<t:unix:R> (<t:unix>)```So it would look like this
earnest phoenix
insn't there a t type as well?

earnest phoenix

Well passing it in seconds if you're passing in the number directly instead of the date, if you pass a date it'll convert it to seconds
https://github.com/discordjs/discord.js/blob/main/packages/builders/src/messages/formatters.ts#L267-L302
earnest phoenix
```js
for( let i = 0; i < interaction.options.getNumber('winners'); i++){
...
You gotta keep redrawing the winners until they're not present in the set
userId = // Draw winner
while (talkedRecently.has(userId))
userId = // Draw winner
talkedRecently.add(userId);
Although this can be pretty inefficient if it keeps landing on the same winner repeatedly, an efficient way to do this would be creating a copy of the users array, delete the user from the said array when picked as winner, then when redrawing it won't pick that user anymore as it's deleted from the array

how would i get commands to execute from aliases using a commands handler?
is it any different from setting the normal command
im guessing its not but idk
lyric mountain
have a map of aliases
lyric mountain
are them going to be hardcoded or dynamic?
wooden ember
what do you mean? there is just a list of like three on each command file
lyric mountain
hardcoded means it's defined on the code
dynamic means it's defined during runtime
wooden ember
how would it be dynamic though is what im not understanding?
can i get it to predict my bad spelling?
lol
lyric mountain
user uses !alias command cmd
command now can be used as !command or !cmd
lyric mountain
can i get it to predict my bad spelling?
only if u use fuzzy searching
boreal iron
It would by dynamic if people would be able to edit the aliases in their servers for example
wooden ember
that would be nice
lyric mountain
inb4, don't use fuzzy search for commands
wooden ember
but that would just be added complexity
boreal iron
tribal harness
Thats the point brother.
lyric mountain
I mean, every convenience feature u add is additional complexity
wooden ember
i would just use fs to edit the line in the command file but thats a bit too much of a redneck solution for my liking
that would be simple
lyric mountain
no, that'd be catastrophic
lyric mountain
you have to use a database if u want to go dynamic
boreal iron
but it would "work"
Not really
wooden ember
could get away with json if i had a file for each command though
boreal iron
How would you manage two guilds defining different aliases then?
lyric mountain
file-based settings are always the worst possible option if u plan on editing it all the time

i mean the context is this bot is on like 3 servers so
eh
not tooooo much of an issue
lyric mountain
always consider ur bot is in 100 servers
wooden ember
eh
lyric mountain
don't think small because you'll have concurrency/personalization issues later on
your code has to be prepared for all range of usage
wooden ember
my bot has a command that streams the music from the servers cd player idk how id make that work over 100+ servers
lyric mountain
that's how u find bottlenecks
wooden ember
*adds 100 cd drives to the host server*
tribal harness
What do you mean? As long as it has perms
tribal harness
How are you streaming the music?
wooden ember
didnt think of that but its funny having my the cd drive spin up at 1am
lyric mountain
wait, ur using physical cds?
wooden ember
How are you streaming the music?
just streaming the sound from alsamixer to discord
lyric mountain
lmao what
tribal harness
Thats incredible
tribal harness
quartz kindle
the only music bot that streams live music, as in, really really live
wooden ember
ok ok lemme back up a bit, the server is old and i had an old cd drive, it can work independantly of the pc as its got a headphone jack on the front
so i use child prosses to run play and stop commands
i then capture the audeo internally using the internal cd audeo cable that is basically line in
lyric mountain
the only music bot that streams live music, as in, really really live
the cd after nonstop streaming for 1 week
wooden ember
i then route that audio over discord
boreal iron
the only music bot that streams live music, as in, really really live
Back in times when streaming meant to invite your friends to your home to watch something on this:
wooden ember
also i have it so that i can use child prosses to set the input from the cd drive to the line in jack which is connected to a tape player
i got pics some where
ill see if i can find them
tribal harness
So you play tapes and cd's?
wooden ember
yeah the cd is fully controlable but the tape player has to be started manually so i only listen to that when in in a vc with my friends
this is the old setup
the cd drive wouldnt fit in that case
so i dug out another even older case and used that
which is this
pls dont zoom in theres alot of redneck shit in there
tribal harness
xD
wooden ember
like the fan cooling the pci ssd held on by popsicle sticks jammed in the pci slot below

I mean, if it works
small tangle
the cd after nonstop streaming for 1 week
looks like art from dali 
lyric mountain
cant u just export the cd to a file and stream that?
wooden ember
wheres the fun in that
also i did this after i couldnt get streaming from yt to work
how this worked and the yt thing didnt idk
also this is the tape player
using the old server

wheres the fun in that
When looking at your pictures I wonder how’s that fun

wooden ember
bruh you shoulda seen my main pc 4 years ago
shit keped breaking on it and i just stoped bothering to put it back together after a while

How does Discord fetch members/channels for a server when swapping between servers? I assume lots of work is in cache.
boreal iron
that's pretty much it I guess, since I usually see avatars and sometimes user names being like... days/weeks old
round cove
Assets like images make sense, but like when I swap say to this server, I don't see any member/channel request to load in those things.
And to do so would be so expensive each time so I was curious how Discord handled that.
lament rock
The official client is like any other bot, just with a gui. They have some lazy loading practices when it comes down to member lists, but you can operate with just data sent from GUILD_CREATE and fetching channel messages since member and user Objects are attached to message Objects
last_message_id is used as well since the clients can persistent cache channel message history and have it either be marked as stale or not depending on the last_message_id
round cove
Curious.
But if I were to kill the client, start it up and monitor the request I won't see any channels request, right? So where is their persistent storage at.
lament rock
idk where on disk. All I know is it's cached somewhere. Also, channels are sent on GUILD_CREATE
round cove
That's an interesting concept that it'd be like a bot with a gui.
Where did you learn this? Or just a good educated guess?
lament rock
user accounts aren't too terribly different from bot accounts, just more privileged access
round cove
That I understand more.
lament rock
A mix of educated guesses as well as watching the network tab for inspector when I was bored. I'm also slightly forced to know my way around the Discord API and I believe I could replicate the behavior of the official clients quite well if it weren't for my shitty front end skills
round cove
The only reason I'm investigating it is that Guilded has the horrible issue of gettings members and CHANNELS every single time you swap to a different server.
Ever seen a 1.5MB member file load before? Yeesh
lament rock
guilded is omega lol garbage
interesting concept, but that's about it
competition to Discord would be healthy
round cove
Yeah exactly. So I'm hoping they figure it out.
digital swan
is there anyway to have 2 wide inline fields instead of 3? i wanna have a sort of 2x2 grid of fields in an embed
sudden geyser
nah
You can make the first two fields inline and not the third one, but you can't inline the one succeeding that one since it'll be put on its own line
So at best you could have 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, etc.
sudden geyser
competition to Discord would be healthy
Guilded doesn't seem to be competing with Discord in the same way that Discord isn't competing with Slack.
boreal iron
is there anyway to have 2 wide inline fields instead of 3? i wanna have a sort o...
yes and no there's a way to push an empty field title and value (with a few spaces) as third column, but that wont work on mobile and wont expand the two other columns
but it somehow works
digital swan
yeah thats what im about to test out rn
boreal iron
like that
but it will reduce the other 2 columns on the next line to the max length
of above
wooden ember
That's an interesting concept that it'd be like a bot with a gui.
bruh there are clients out there that let you log on to a discord bot and use it as a normal user
most of them where cilled off due to privlaged intents but eh
stuck dawn
anyone knows why there's no overflow?
i am using grid
with flex it works but is not responsive
stuck dawn
in the grid
the slots you know?
if i remove the display none the scrollbar appears but don't let me scroll
there are 50 squares
only 25 are there
civic scroll
you can use overflow-y: auto
then it automatically becomes scrollable
if you are worry about the scrollbar, just set the scrollbar width to 0
or you can set it absolute in relative parent container with right 0, width 10 and height 100%
stuck dawn
you can use `overflow-y: auto`
it doesn't let me scroll
civic scroll
why tho
stuck dawn
it's not the same problem of the other day, i can't actually scroll
idk
its the grid
civic scroll
if the child overflows on an overflow-y-auto parent the parent is scrollable
stuck dawn
civic scroll
you should only limit the column to 5
stuck dawn
ohhh i see
civic scroll
you limit the row number to 5, hence it only renders 5 rows
stuck dawn
the columns are the problem
yeah
let me try
nope it doesn't work
even
if
i repeat 10 times

anyone knows why there's no overflow?
that looks like a fivem inventory lmao

@lyric mountain, got a question for you. 👋
wheat mesa
Java question 👀
feral aspen
Yes.
lyric mountain
ayo

how can i do that?
think about it
feral aspen
I'll need to give a backstory, gonna take a while.
civic scroll
sadly i haven't touch grids for now
stuck dawn
:( thanks anyway
feral aspen
Alright, long story short, I'm currently making a 2D game as a project to learn Java, and I'm currently making a map. However, in order to make a map, supposedly, I can create a map using a .txt file and give each block an ID. Supposedly:
https://cdn.hamoodihajjiri.com/geoWx9J0dR
This is a 16x12 map whereas 0 is a dirt block, 1 is a water block, 2 is a tree, etc. As I come to create more blocks, I've noticed that when it comes to reaching an ID of 10, you notice how it makes the line longer and I've noticed how it can confuse other developers when making a map. So I'm like, alright, why not start IDs with 10, but I also cannot leave 0 to 9, if that made sense.
lyric mountain
well, u could use the entire ascii table
wheat mesa
^
feral aspen
What?
wheat mesa
I’d just encode it as one byte each
lyric mountain
\uFFFF is probably enough for all your use-cases
wheat mesa
That way nobody can get confused
lyric mountain
one byte would be up to 255 different ids (256 if u include 0)
2 bytes would be 65535 different ids (65536 with 0)
feral aspen
How would that work? I still didn't understand.
wheat mesa
A character is technically a number, just use the integer value of the characters instead of just printing numbers
lyric mountain
like F0 would become char \u00F0
feral aspen
Yes, but I'm confused on how I'm supposed to be turning this into what you're tell me: https://cdn.hamoodihajjiri.com/CueDD593Ll .
wheat mesa
Aka char someCharStoringNumber = (char)5
lyric mountain
(char) thenumber
wheat mesa
(Do you even need the cast, idk)
lyric mountain
u do
actually
if ur storing in a char variable u dont
but if u do stuff like println(thenumber) it'll print the actual number
wheat mesa
Speaking of Java I’m actually writing some right now for CS class lol
feral aspen
I still don't know what I'm exactly supposed to do, I'm confused.
lyric mountain
like, is the map supposed to be viewed as a grid in terminal?
or will the grid be used somewhere else?
feral aspen
No, the map is like numbers, the code loops through them so it can display the tiles.
lyric mountain
...
feral aspen
I didn't make sense, fair enough.
lyric mountain
so are the ids being viewed as-is or are they used somewhere else?
feral aspen
They're being used.
lyric mountain
so they're a 2d map?
feral aspen
Yes.
feral aspen
You know, something simple like this: https://cdn.hamoodihajjiri.com/umjpfoNsxY .
lyric mountain
simply use a normal array
feral aspen
Each tile is the actual ID.
feral aspen
No, I'm just using tile id, tile name, and collision.
lyric mountain
byte gridWidth = something;
byte[] mapData = ...the array;
for (int y = 0; y < mapData / gridWidth; y++) {
for (int x = gridWidth * y; x < gridWidth * (y + 1) && x < gridWidth; x++) {
byte id = mapData[x];
// do something with id
}
}
I'd go an extra length and make a wrapper for that
lyric mountain
hm, wait
the x loop has the wrong condition
well anyway, u can figure that out
nvm, already did
feral aspen
For sure.
ancient nova
anyone has any command ideas? :]

```java

to edit a `ephemeral` message what term we will use?

so, the problem was that i need to set the height to each slot now is scrollable
ancient nova
hmm
maybe just do this:
send the ephermal message, once user picks delete it instead and edit ur main embed
should be easier to do
boreal iron
your follow up message has a webhook ID property, use this to edit the webhook (response)
ancient nova
ooof should I use this for my dashboard?
https://github.com/LachlanDev/Discord-BOT-Dashboard-V2
it actually looks pretty good

is this java?
this is any c-like language tbh

your follow up message has a webhook ID property, use this to edit the webhook (...

ancient nova
why does every dashboard is integrated into the bot itself
do people not separate the two?
it seems like hell to manage
boreal iron
this thing just shows a few stats, that's all
lyric mountain
it's only hell to manage if u don't have a proper project structure
boreal iron
nothing you can't do yourself in a few hours
lyric mountain
like keeping everything in the same folder
boreal iron
from scratch
civic scroll
still
it's simple
your bot works as a backend server already
so serving up some stats is not a big deal
it's not like you are sharding from multiple instances and report stats to a central server anyway
ancient nova
na my problem is usage, it would prolly jump high af if i integrated a website into my main bot struct
ancient nova
it's not like you are sharding from multiple instances and report stats to a cen...
I do shard
although I have only 1 atm
civic scroll
not your bot
boreal iron
then just store your stats in a database which you query on your dashboard site
civic scroll
the application instance is a level lower
civic scroll
it contains both your bot and stat process
or you can take advantage of child process and pass messages around as json and text
that works too
civic scroll
nothing works best than from original source
craggy pine
You tell topgg ur bot stats
civic scroll
but for uptime it's impossible

who would bother do a ws connection to your bot for uptime 💀
