Save the message object as a vaiable to refer to it later then you can edit it
lusty dew
so how could I restart my bot a long with the commands so the saved changes to the code takes effect?
earnest phoenix
hmm everytime I try to search voice receiver I get dbl ads for @drowsy fjord
grand raft
let message = msg.channel.send("Hello world");
message.edit("Hello world 2").then(() => {
message.edit("Hello world 3");
});```:(
amber fractal
@lusty dew could just make a reload command
lusty dew
Hm
grand raft
or nodemon if you don't want to use a process manager
lusty dew
How would I do that?
grand raft
but I'd recommend the process manager
lusty dew
Last time I made something like that
it didn't actually work
It said it reloaded the command but it didn;t
quartz kindle
i use pm2
grand raft
npm i -g pm2
pm2 start yourbot.js --watch .
But I want to like make 2 s before editing message?
lusty dew
Whom are you talking to?
grand raft
@lusty dew you
lusty dew
Ah o
amber fractal
@earnest phoenix setTimeout
lusty dew
ok
amber fractal
In js anyways
earnest phoenix
I send code
lusty dew
how exactly does pm2 work though?
grand raft
It runs as a daemon/service process
and then runs your nodejs processes underneath it
earnest phoenix
message.channel.send(`*lol*`)
.then((msg)=>{
setTimeout(function(){
msg.edit('*haah*');
}, 1000)}).then((mssg) => {
mssg.edit(`Gotttem`);
}, 1000)}
}```also Bots, like this:
let message = msg.channel.send("Hello world");
message.edit("Hello world 2").then(() => {
setTimeout(() => {
message.edit("Hello world 3");
}, 2000);
});```i want to do 3-4 times
lusty dew
So would it stop working if my computer went to sleep?
grand raft
you don't really have to wait for the .then() but it's good practice
yes it would
nothing runs if your computer is asleep
grand raft
Do you have anything else you could run it on?
If it's a lightweight bot you could even just buy a raspberry pi ($35 for the most expensive model) and run it on that
or $5 for the cheapest but I'm not sure how well that would run a bot
amber fractal
A vps cost $3 tho
quartz kindle
if its a lightweight bot, even glitch/heroku can run it
grand raft
rpi is a one-time investment and can be repurposed later
quartz kindle
if you're the one paying electricity bills, a vps will be cheaper than a pi
lusty dew
I have $0 so ima have to try and make glitch or heroku work somehow
quartz kindle
and yea, vps internet is a gazillion times better than any home internet out there
unless you're on like 1gb/1gb fiber
amber fractal
grand raft
even then unless you have business internet it's probably can be against your ISP ToS to run a discord bot
quartz kindle
wut
amber fractal
Never heard that one before
grand raft
home-grade internet can have clauses saying you can't run an external service someone else can access
quartz kindle
what kind of ISP would disallow people to run home-based services/servers? wtf
grand raft
Mine for one 
grand raft
it's a bit of a gray area for discord bots since you're not actually hosting a serivce so much as communicating with discord, but you should probably still check
inner jewel
you don't have third parties accessing your stuff if you run a discord bot
it's just outbound connections
quartz kindle
technically, there is no difference between a discord client and a discord bot, as far as networking is concerned
the discord app uses the same websocket system as a discord bot
grand raft
other than that a bot on thousands of servers would generate a lot more traffic
inner jewel
and since encryption is a thing they can't detect if it's a client or a bot
quartz kindle
yeah, if your isp doesnt offer unlimited data
you're most likely screwed
my bot uses about 10gb/mo on 600 guilds
amber fractal
Think about the bandwidth 😢
grand raft
plus if you get a vps in a big datacenter you're more likely to be closer to a discord server, or at least have a bigger pipe connecting you to it, which can result in lower ping for your bot
quartz kindle
yup, which is very important
quartz kindle
thats where the gateway is?
grand raft
I'd rather not spend two weeks in traffic a day

This api is currently down 😦
I want to create my own api to remove down moment.
Because i’m the first brawlstars statistics bot atm 👀

quartz kindle
is there any official website that has the data you need?
topaz fjord
Just sweet talk supercell till they give you access to player stats

I alrzady took the data from brawlapi.cf and statsbrawl
But this two websites are down 5h a day.

I don't think they are
dreamy breach
Unofficial api yes
quartz kindle
so find out where they get the data from

any vps can host a database
but you need to install it and set it up yourself
ubuntu is a standard choice yes, i believe most people use it

Hey so Im trying to edit an embed with a command to be able to edit any embed message. It works as Im only trying to edit the body of the embed, only trouble Im having is that I want the properties of the original title, color, etc to stay the same but only edit what I write in so "body"
keen drift
Clone, edit
ruby dust
in worst case scenario you can always just recreate the same embed with the changes you want to edit it
earnest phoenix
I posted my bot this morning and I waited almost all day to check

Would it be safe to just use .hasPermissions("KICK_MEMBERS") to check for if someone has mod status
mossy vine
are you actually writing code in google docs
earnest phoenix
My friends been over for the week while his parents were splitting up, he coded it, he left..
idk what it is tho
knotty steeple
con.query("SELECT * FROM counter;", (err, results, fields) => {
if(err) {
utils.log(err, true)
}
id = results[0].counter + 1
})
i have a variable set here id but when i use it somehow it says its undefined
con.query({
sql: "INSERT INTO thing (userID, option, id) VALUES (?, ?, ?)",
values: [uid, args[0], id]
}, (err, results, fields) => {
if(err) {
utils.log(err, true)
}
})
when it inserts into the table it is null, which means its undefined
but if i do something like msg.channel.createMessage(id) its not undefined?
pls explain because im dumb
knotty steeple
dont code in google docs

Can someone pls help
knotty steeple
put the code on hastebin```So I'm trying to add the ability to change prefix.

Got the code set up (and db) for changing prefix but when I tried changing it as a test it didnt actually work.
Using discord.js and mongo for the db
earnest phoenix

Looks like it's missing required libs
earnest phoenix
if yes you won't know how to download requirements
DMs.
No
Alright
If you are good with python can you please help me? (DMS) I have a code with an error, and need help fixing it.
1)No
2)You've been asked to learn how to code before you actually do so, and looks like you are copy coding since you don't even know how to download the lib requirements (sorry if this is too har for you but if you want to be better at coding, you need to learn).
I'm just asking for simple help, I don't want to fully learn coding just to fix this error.
restive halo
I mean if you're not willing to learn then how can we help
bright spear
@earnest phoenix nobody will help you if you don't actually learn the language
earnest phoenix
Nevermind, I figured it out.
bright spear
Don't copy paste code
restive halo
Is it alright if I post a github link to my bots code?
Need someone to check and see if I've done something wrong cause cant change prefixes. But nothing is crashing so...
Also its using discord.js and mongo
earnest phoenix
Yeah

Sure
restive halo
Alright got what's wrong
Mongo is async so it returns the value after the message gets sent
knotty steeple
let's say i have an array of objects, like this
const objects = [{"e": 10, "respects": 69}, {"e": 23, "respects": 13}]
``` how could i make a field for each object in the array?a for loop?
quartz kindle
you mean add each of them to an embed as a field?
knotty steeple
yes
quartz kindle
objects.forEach(item => {
embed.addField(item.e,item.respects)
})``` ?or whatever the embed constructor is
knotty steeple
i dont use rich embeds i just use the embed option for createMessage
quartz kindle
you make a literal embed object?
knotty steeple
yes
quartz kindle
let embed = {};
objects.forEach(item => {
embed.addField(item.e,item.respects)
})
same thing
knotty steeple
wew
quartz kindle
just instead of the addField
you set the fields yourself
wheres that embed visualizer

lusty dew
https://paste.tscforum.com/pvfexlasgg.coffeescript Does anyone think this would work?
It is supposed to do
if the coin Multiplier they have = 1x then it won't double the coins and it will show the normal embed
but if they have 2x multiplier it will show the 2x embed
and show the multiplied coins
quartz kindle
well, have you tested it?
lusty dew
Yea got no errors
but I fixed it
:>
My next thing is making the coin multiplier part
Also
That brings me to my next question
I am trying to make a shop to buy the Coin multiplier
and I am trying to give the items ID's
so people can say the ID of the item and buy it
But how could I make the item ID's?
quartz kindle
like an arbitrary unique id?
lusty dew
Well
Coinmultiplier would have an ID of 1
Xp multiplier would have an id of 2
and so on
quartz kindle
well, you have either assign the ids yourself, or you can generate random ids
lusty dew
How could I assign the IDs myself?
quartz kindle
if you have an sql database, it has an auto incremented unique id
lusty dew
I am using MongoDB
But like I just said
I want to give it my own ID
like
let items = {
coinMultiplier: {
"id": 1
},
xpMultilier: {
"id": 2
}
}
if you want to find items by their IDs, the IDs should be the keys, and the name should be a field
lusty dew
Something like that, then users could do tc!buy 1 or tc!buy 2
quartz kindle
so js items = { "1": { name: "coinMultiplier" } }
quartz kindle
this way you can also add more fields if needed
for example item description, item price
etc
lusty dew
let items = {
"1": {
name: "CoinMultiplier",
price: "100"
},
"2":{
name: "CoinMultiplier a Week",
price: "400"
}
}
Something like that?
quartz kindle
yeah
quartz kindle
items[id]
quartz kindle
its a string, so it has to be items["1"]
quartz kindle
but if you get the id from the discord message, its just the variable items[id]
lusty dew
?
quartz kindle
yes
lusty dew
Mk
let items = {
"1": {
name: "CoinMultiplier",
price: 100
},
"2":{
name: "CoinMultiplier for a week",
price: 400
}
}
does it have to be like that
or can it be
let items = {
1: {
name: "CoinMultiplier",
price: 100
},
2:{
name: "CoinMultiplier for a week",
price: 400
}
}
Mk
quartz kindle
actually it doesnt make a difference
even as strings you still cant do item.1
and even as strings, you can still do items[1] as a number
lusty dew
Yea
I don't really want to do a bunch of checks ugh
Is there a faster way to like
Oh way
Oh wait
I can just do
is there a way to use both ids?
like
items[1, 2].price
or smth
quartz kindle
nope
lusty dew
Damn
quartz kindle
you need to iterate it
lusty dew
?
knotty steeple
loop
quartz kindle
you want to get a list of prices, right?
lusty dew
Yea
and check if they have the right money
for any of those items
so I could do
a for loop right?
quartz kindle
you can do something like js Object.entries(items).map(item => { return `[${item[0]}] ${item[1].name}: ${item[1].price}` })
and you'll get an array containing the list of items with their ids and prices
lusty dew
Hm
I was just gonna do something like this
if(data.bal >= items[1].price){
data.bal -= items[1].pric
data.coinMultiplier = "2x"
}else{
message.channel.send(`You don't have sufficient funds! You have ${data.bal} you need ${data.bal - items[1].price} more coins to purchase this item!`)
}
something like that
and I think that is how I would get how much they would need more
I am not completely sure
quartz kindle
yeah that will work
just switch them around in the message, or you'll get you need negativenumber more coins
xD
lusty dew
Yea
True
XD
It'd be nice though
if I could loop through all the prices
so if they do
tc!buy 1
it will check their bal with that price
and if they do the second one
it will also check their bal with the price of that item
I don't want to have to do a bunch of checks
lusty dew
Hm?
quartz kindle
if you want to work on multiple items, just use loops
lusty dew
That is what I was gong to do
But I am not very good with loops
Oof
Ill figure it out though
!
You been a ton of help already
Thanks ❤

I also get that error if My pc goes to sleep if I am hosting on my pc like a nub
welp
Looks like ima have to do a bunch of checks
I can't get the for loop to work
:/
quartz kindle
what are you trying?
lusty dew
for(price in items){
}
amber fractal
is items an object?
lusty dew
yea
lusty dew
var?
quartz kindle
for in lets you iterate over keys, so price here is not the item price, its the item id
amber fractal
of is a collection iterator
quartz kindle
for of will iterate over values, so price would become the entire item object, with all is sub keys
lusty dew
So how could I get price then?
quartz kindle
you can use whichever loop you want, just use the context properly
lusty dew
cause I want them to be able to do tc!buy 1 and it checks the price of item ID 1 or tc!buy 2 and it checks the price of item ID 2
quartz kindle
example ```js
for(a in items) {
console.log(items[a].price)
}
for(a of items) {
console.log(a.price)
}
What is the a?
quartz kindle
the value of the current item
lusty dew
Ah so if they tried to buy the first item
it would check the price of that item?
and if they tried to buy the second one it would check the price of the second item
quartz kindle
also, apparently for of doesnt work for objects, only for arrays
lusty dew
oh
amber fractal
I use of to iterate collections
quartz kindle
i dont get what you're trying to do tho, this is for iterating over all items
you dont need to check prices of all items if they want to buy just one
lusty dew
Well I am just trying to prevent me from having to do
if(data.bal >= items[1].price){
//gives coinMultiplier 2x and subtracts coins
}else{
//tells them they have insufficient funds
}
if(data.bal >= items[2].price){
//gives coinMultiplier 2x and subtracts coins
}else{
//tells them they have insufficient funds
}
if(data.bal >= items[3].price){
//gives coinMultiplier 2x and subtracts coins
}else{
//tells them they have insufficient funds
}
and so on
quartz kindle
why do you need to do that?
if they want to buy item 1, just check item 1, dont check other items
lusty dew
if(data.bal >= items[`${args}`].price){
//gives coinMultiplier 2x and subtracts coins
}else{
//tells them they have insufficient funds
}
couldn't I do that?
so if they do
tc!buy 1 it will check price for 1
quartz kindle
thats exactly what you should do, i though you were already doing that from the beginning lol
but you're doing it wrong
you dont need to convert anything
lusty dew
yea
lusty dew
oh yea
quartz kindle
else, you need to extract the value from args
amber fractal
If you have an object like this:
item1: {
desc: "",
price: 100
},
item2: {
desc: "",
price: 200
}
}```
console.log(obj.item1.price) // 100
console.log(obj.item2.price) // 200lmao
lusty dew
Sorry for wasting your time
amber fractal
Its not a waste of time if you learned
last lava
is anyone familiar with the "message.channel.overwritePermissions" function in discord.js
last lava
is there a function to overwrite the permission throughout the whole server?
lusty dew
You would need to use a loop
last lava
oof
lusty dew
here is an example of a loop I use
message.guild.channels.forEach(async (channel, id) => {
//overwritePermission function here
})
That is how I do it
last lava
okay
lusty dew
Although
last lava
?
lusty dew
It isn't that good for big bots or so I heard
lusty dew
Since it can be API abuse for big bots or just servers that have a tone of channels
last lava
but its fine
lusty dew
ton*
quartz kindle
the only alternative is to use roles instead of channels
or override category permissions
and make channels sync with category
lusty dew
Hey tim
data.coinMultiplier = "2x"
I just realized a thing I didn't think of and now I can't figure it out
Coin Multiplier is not the only item on the shop
There is also xpMultiplier
But I can't figure out how I would do if they bot the Coin multiplier make it 2x and if they bought xp Multiplier make it 2x
could I just do
a check?
earnest phoenix
What do you want exactly
quartz kindle
xp and coins are two different things, right? so they should be two different properties
lusty dew
Yea
quartz kindle
like data.cointmulti and data.xpmulti
also
if you want to remove some checks, since you want to simplify your code
instead of data.coinMultiplier = "2x" just do data.coinMultiplier = 2
lusty dew
I can;t
quartz kindle
this way, you can do coins * data.coinMultiplier
instead of if(coinmultiplier == "2x") { coins * 2 }
lusty dew
client.checkUserExist = (message) => {
client.loadUserData(message.author.id, data => {
if (data != null) return
data = {
id: message.author.id,
bal: client.settings.starting_balance,
xp: client.settings.startingXP,
levels: 0,
coinMultiplier: "1x",
xpMultiplier: '1x'
}
client.writeUserData(message.author.id, data, () => {
client.log(`Successfully created account for ${message.author.username}#${message.author.discriminator}`)
})
})
}
Delete string
quartz kindle
just change it
earnest phoenix
Delete the string 
lusty dew
But I guess I could do
quartz kindle
do the same as you do with levels
earnest phoenix
I do coin multiplier on my bot
quartz kindle
use a number instead of a string
lusty dew
@earnest phoenix Cool
earnest phoenix
Text want string, and number doesn't want it
lusty dew
You make no sense
sorry
else if (data.coinMultipler == 2)
I could do that
Instead of checking if coinMultiplier == "2x"
But
Still how would the bot know if they bought Coin multiplier or Xp multiplier?
cause if I just did
if (data.bal >= items[args[1]].price) {
data.bal -= items[args[1]].price
data.coinMultiplier += 2
data.xpMultiplier += 2
}
wouldn't this just add them both?
quartz kindle
two things
- you dont need that if anymore
you dont need to check if multiplier equals to 2 or not
lusty dew
I am not
quartz kindle
simply always multiply by the multiplier
lusty dew
That is adding
wait
honestly
I am dumb
I am adding 2
not adding it to the number 2
oof
lusty dew
Yea
I can't figure that part out
:/
That is what I been saying
and asking for help on
quartz kindle
if(items[args[1]].name === "coinMultiplier")
thats why you have a name field in your items
lusty dew
Ah ok
Wow that was simple
I clearly don't think hard enough
But it goes By ID
So I should use
use .id?
or what

the thing is, why would you use a database server when you only have a single process using it?
quartz kindle
the only time a database server would make sense is if your bot is sharded into multiple processes or across machines, or you need external access via apis
so for small bots, its usually not needed
and sqlite has already proven itself to be able to handle millions of requests
keen drift
I started out with a json storage engine
then I ported it over to mongo as the demand got higher
quartz kindle
im still using json as well, because i dont have time/motivation to rewrite everything
but i plan to rewrite it to sqlite
i think that even with shards, sqlite will do fine in a single machine
i would only move to a database server if i were to split it into multiple machines/instances
quartz kindle
well, once your bot gets really big, like i assume yours is
then you go on an adventure
keen drift
yes, miserable adventure
keen drift
the more you grow, the less docs there are
inner jewel
even on huge bots most dbs can handle it without breaking a sweat
quartz kindle
with great power comes great responsibility
keen drift
except I don't have responsibility
inner jewel
pretty much any real db can handle tens of thousands of queries per second at least
quartz kindle
even sqlite can
keen drift
really just want to get replication up for my db
had an incident before where a node magically won't boot

keen drift
public invite is not available
quartz kindle
a friend was trying to add it
keen drift
there's another invite link that goes thru the full oauth flow
so I can rate limit it

{ [Error: SQLITE_CANTOPEN: unable to open database file] errno: 14, code: 'SQLITE_CANTOPEN' }
whats up here
keen drift
could be a lot of things
last lava
im still stuck
im trying to make a function to go through each channel and mute a user
so far the function is message.guild.channels.forEach(overwritePermissions(mutedmember.id, {
VIEW_CHANNEL: true,
SEND_MESSAGES: false
}))
inner jewel
what's the issue?
lusty dew
message.guild.channels.forEach(
await channel.overwritePermissions(mutedmember.id, {
VIEW_CHANNEL: true, SEND_MESSAGES: false
}));
wrong
lusty dew
That should work better
inner jewel
that code won't work
lusty dew
It works for me
inner jewel
it's 100% invalid
lusty dew
Perfectly fine
last lava
...
inner jewel
message.guild.channels.forEach(
await channel.overwritePermissions(mutedmember.id, {
VIEW_CHANNEL: true, SEND_MESSAGES: false
})
);```you pass the result of overwritePermissions to forEach
and i can guarantee you that is not a function
also you don't need to await if you don't use the result
last lava
its a method
lusty dew
But you do you guys
inner jewel
it's useless and just adds overhead
¯_(ツ)_/¯
and gc pressure
@last lava any reason you're not using a mute role instead?
it's way faster to mute
a guild can have 500 channels
you'd send 500 requests to discord to mute a member
last lava
i dont find it consistent
inner jewel
vs a single one to add a mute role
keen drift
consistent
last lava
for some reason, my role doesnt mute for the channel the person is in
but does for all other channels
inner jewel
then your permissions are wrong
last lava
i double checked them...
inner jewel
if you have something like https://javascript.is-bad.com/ba097c.png
then it's impossible to mute
if any permission overwrite allows a permission, it will be granted
regardless of denies
last lava
probably what the prob was
quartz kindle
that forEach doesnt even have a callback
earnest phoenix
I’m having an issue with some errors in my code. Anyone good with Python? If so please dm or ping me.
last lava
so should i just stick with assigning a role?
quartz kindle
using a role is better, but its a pain to update the channels for it
last lava
okay
lusty dew
how can I make it so when they do tc!shop it dms them the shop embed and then they can just send the [itemid] they want to buy. Cause rn it is lookin for the item number when I do tc!shop
last lava
should i create a new role, or have one premade
quartz kindle
you can do it the channel way, you're just missing the callback in the function: .forEach(channel => do something with channel here)
earnest phoenix
If you are good with python, please ping or DM me.
lusty dew
If you create the role gotta check if it exists after so it doesn't keep creating the role after every single time the mute cmd is used
keeps trying to create*
last lava
thats what i used prev
@quartz kindle like this
message.guild.channels.forEach(channel => channel.overwritePermissions(mutedmember.id, {
VIEW_CHANNEL: true, SEND_MESSAGES: false
}))
last lava
okay
message.guild.channels.forEach(channel => channel.overwritePermissions(mutedmember.id, {
VIEW_CHANNEL: true, SEND_MESSAGES: false
}))
does this make any sense?
if (cooldown != null && (Date.now() - cooldown > 0)) return reply(`You can only use !daily every 24 hours`);
if (cooldown == null) cooldown = Date.now();
i'm using dates to make a cooldown system
quartz kindle
Date.now() - cooldown will always be > 0
sick cloud
so how do i check if the cooldown is equal or greater than a day?
keen drift
let d = new Date(); d.setDate(d.getDate() + 1); if lastUse + cooldownDuration > d.timestampthingy
somewhat like that
earnest phoenix
Anyone good with py? If so... help?
Can you check this code to run it? I can’t find it’s errors.
@earnest phoenix that's not how you run a bot
Mate, it has errors.
I just need help fixing them/
inner jewel
congratulations on leaking your token
last lava
rip
last lava
oof
earnest phoenix
Shush
I been waiting 2 days for @gilded plank
@earnest phoenix first off is it in a python file or are you actually running it from there
errant ocean
Wait
lusty dew
SyntaxError: await is only valid in async function
I get this error
even when I add async in
amber fractal
My cooldowns are so overworked, but they work
lusty dew
Ok?
amber fractal
Was referring to a older conversation
sick cloud
the function has to be async
spring ember
@lusty dew you need the function you are calling the await from to be async
lusty dew
@spring ember I already have it handled
spring ember
Cool

Is there a way to add more than 1 reaction of the same type to a message? (py)
knotty steeple
how do you add a reaction to a message
empty steppe
currently with client.add_reaction(msg, emoji)
knotty steeple
repeat that
empty steppe
hm it doesnt add more it seems
knotty steeple
can u just post code
empty steppe
msg = await self.bot.say(embed=await self.generate_embed())
for i, r in enumerate(self.options_reaction):
await self.bot.add_reaction(
msg,
(b'\U0001f1a'.replace(b'a',bytes(hex(224 + (6 + i))[2:], "utf-8"))).decode("unicode-escape")
)
await self.bot.add_reaction(
msg,
(b'\U0001f1a'.replace(b'a', bytes(hex(224 + (6 + i))[2:], "utf-8"))).decode("unicode-escape")
)
empty steppe
await self.bot.add_reaction(
msg,
(b'\\U0001f1a'.replace(b'a',bytes(hex(224 + (6 + i))[2:], "utf-8"))).decode("unicode-escape")
)
await self.bot.add_reaction(
msg,
(b'\\U0001f1a'.replace(b'a', bytes(hex(224 + (6 + i))[2:], "utf-8"))).decode("unicode-escape")
)```hm
sec
knotty steeple
do a loop then
empty steppe
well it is a loop and should add each reaction twice
(i just copied the lines where it adds the reaction once)
earnest phoenix
Hi
knotty steeple
arent u adding the same reaction
empty steppe
yes
empty steppe
by reaction of the same type i meant the same reaction
knotty steeple
no
earnest phoenix
Hi
empty steppe
thanks for the help @knotty steeple
is there a way to save a message including the reactions and repost it?
knotty steeple
no
earnest phoenix
earnest phoenix
@earnest phoenix done
yes
If I want to make a user blacklist in json I have to do how?
ok
marble needle
save userdata you can use to identify the user (hint: choose something that doesn't change) in your json object and wherever you implement your blacklist logic (aka where you want to do something with the blacklist in your code) check if the user in question is in your blacklist. If they are do things you want to do with blacklisted people

@earnest phoenix il me laisse pas faire de say tout simple avec genre même sans everyone ou here
Att
Ok
if(args[0] === 'everyone') return;
Ok thx
message.includes est dépassé
J'avais oublier
if(args[0] === 'everyone' && 'here') return;
Yes
Ok thx
Jsp si ca va fonctionner comme ca
Ah
Avec les & &
Alors
Mais sans ca fonctionne
if(args[0] === 'everyone') return;
if(args[0] === 'here') return;
?
Oui
Ok
Go test
Merci
Il bloque pas @earnest phoenix
Il met quand même mdrr

Ok
met le en dessous de ta const
et

plus simple
Ok
Sauf que
Maintenant il fait plus de say
Wtf
lusty dew
data.bal >= items[]
Since I am doing cases what would I put in the [], cause I am wanting to check whichever ID they said it will check the price of that Item
could I just do
data.bal >= items[args[0]]
https://ghostbin.com/paste/wha88
^full code
quartz kindle
your code order is wrong
first of all, this js message.author.send(shopEmbed).catch(e => { return message.channel.send("Please, enable your dms and try again!") }) will always send, regardless if they have dms enabled or not
you should run that only if the dm fails, for example in a catch block, if the dm message fails
lusty dew
Ok
quartz kindle
then this js setTimeout(() => { message.author.send(`What item would you like? Please say the number of the item you want: Example: 3`) }, 3000) why are you waiting before you send the item list? you're basically trying to wait for an answer before sending anything
you should send the list first, and then await messages
quartz kindle
why dont you add the message in the embed? like in the footer
quartz kindle
also, to send messages in the correct order, you shouldnt use an arbitrary set timeout
you should wait for the message response
.send(message).then(msg => {
msg.send(another message)
})```or use async/await
quartz kindle
now back to the original question
if (data.bal >= items[]) { is also in the wrong order, there is nothing yet to compare
it should be after the await message
so then you just if (data.bal >= items[answer].price) { switch } else { send(insuficient funds) }
if fact, you dont need the switch at all
vernal rivet
👀
quartz kindle
instead of this js switch (parseInt(answer.content)) { case 1: { data.bal -= items[0].price data.coinMultiplier += 1 message.author.send(`You have just bought ${items[0].name}!`) break; } case 2: { data.bal -= items[1].price data.xpMultiplier += 1 message.author.send(`You have just bought ${items[1].name}!`) } } do this ```js
data.bal -= items[answer].price
data[items[answer].name] = 2; // set 2, else if the person buys it twice, he gets multiplier x3. unless thats what you want
message.author.send(You have just bought ${items[answer].name}!)
you dont need them
quartz kindle
why lol
quartz kindle
lmfao
the problem with the switches is that as you keep adding new items, your switch will be huge
and you dont need it all, when you can just directly access the item with the answer
quartz kindle
where?
lusty dew
data[items[answer].name]
instead of .name
could I do.id
since I am wanting to them to use the ID
quartz kindle
yes, but that is not whats happening in that part
data is your database, the user data
quartz kindle
remove this message.author.send(shopEmbed)
lusty dew
Why?
quartz kindle
and add it here
lusty dew
Oh
quartz kindle
message.member.createDM().then(dmchannel => {
dmchannel.send(shopembed)
let filter = m => m.author.id === message.author.id```actually
you dont even need the createDM at all
lusty dew
Damn my code is all types of messed up
lusty dew
....
quartz kindle
ctrl z
quartz kindle
anyway, the shopembed should be inside the dm channel
quartz kindle
now another problem
you changed the item names, or maybe i remember them wrong
so now they dont match the name that is in data
lusty dew
Yea
quartz kindle
if you try to do data[items[answer].name] is the same as doing data["Coin Multiplier 2x | Day long"]
quartz kindle
yes you can
but now you have to think, how are your future items going to look like?
astral quail
Isn't it item instead? Because of the forEach?
shopEmbed.addField(item.id + ' ' + item.name, '\n' + 'Description ' + item.description + '\n' + 'Price:\n' + item.price)```are all of your future items going to be stored in their own namespace in data?
lusty dew
Not all of em
quartz kindle
yes, item also works
quartz kindle
so you will need a check later
astral quail
Otherwise you can just do a for loop, and those are 3 times faster.
quartz kindle
his array has 2 items
lusty dew
What kind of check would I need to add?
