if u remove the bot the commands go away with it
neat ingot
hmm, idk, my command updater script is basic af š
quartz kindle
yes
earnest phoenix
I've tried 
quartz kindle
no, guild commands do
earnest phoenix
no, guild commands do
Not if the commands are already registered globally
As soon as it joins a server it adds the global commands.
if its already been active for 1 hour w/the globals
spark flint
i still don't get slash commands
earnest phoenix
They're so easy, I'm still learning myself tho
spark flint
theres way less documentation and support on it then you'd expect
its hard with python
like how do i get info
earnest phoenix
Yeah, but you kinda gotta think where stuff would make sense at.
quartz kindle
well, discord.py intentionally doesnt support them lmao
you need third party extensions for dpy
spark flint
i use a third party module
neat ingot
interaction.options.getString('property') is how you do it in js, idk py tho š¦

do i have to enable port 22 in the sshd_config file for sftp?!?!1
lyric mountain
there's no 1.8.9 in ba sing se
proven escarp
do i have to enable port 22 in the `sshd_config` file for sftp?!?!1
mh
royal portal
mh?!?!1
quartz kindle
whats wrong with 1.8.9?
royal portal
tim help!!1
proven escarp
do i have to enable port 22 in the `sshd_config` file for sftp?!?!1
yes usually itās the default sftp port
royal portal
but it works without it 
quartz kindle
sftp is literally ftp over ssh
it uses the same ssh connection that you are already using
royal portal
it uses the same ssh connection that you are already using
the config has the port option
didnt enable it
spark flint
because I'm not allowed to ask about 1.8.9
lol
quartz kindle
because ssh ports can be changed
spark flint
strict
neat ingot
SEND_MESSAGES and VIEW_CHANNEL permissions seem a fair restriction for using slash commands i think, or have i overlooked one?
spark flint
some servers are too strict
lyric mountain
whats wrong with 1.8.9?
we don't talk about the 1.8.9 incident
royal portal
because ssh ports can be changed
currently its like this
lyric mountain
22 is unsecure iirc
royal portal
but even if its like that, it will still default to that?!?!1
royal portal
22 is unsecure iirc
what would be secure?!?!1
lyric mountain
idk, 22 is normal tcp
quartz kindle
22 is the default port, theres no need to change it. but one popular security trick is to change the ssh port to hide it from potential attackers
not really necessary in my opinion, especially if you use ssh keys and disable password logins
spark flint
not sure if the default is port 22
default port is usually 22
sometimes 21
but 22 is usually the default port
i know because of how many vps's i've been through
royal portal
currently its like this
even if its commented like this?!?!1
split hazel
I disabled ssh before I turned my bot on
wait but how will I turn my bot on without ssh
lyric mountain
that's the neat part
spark flint
even if its commented like this?!?!1
why woould you change port
surely keeping standard port is better
lyric mountain
by changing port you remove one clue from hackers
spark flint
like if i wanted ftp and someone said "oh yeah my port is port 69" i wouldn;t trust it
true
personally i would say keeping standard is better
lyric mountain
like, the first thing they'll try:
- port 22
- user: root
spark flint
true
i should change my username on my vps
its still root
but password is quite secure
lyric mountain
it's so easy to change to another user
spark flint
true
lyric mountain
the only bad thing is that you'll need to get used to sudo
but u can alwayls just sudo -i -u root
royal portal
default port is usually 22
port 21 is ftp and port 22 is sftp
royal portal
but u can alwayls just `sudo -i -u root`
what does that do
royal portal
like, the first thing they'll try:
- port 22
- user: root
i disabled ssh
lyric mountain
now login to it
royal portal
lyric mountain
ohno putty
royal portal
whats wrong with it 
lyric mountain
cmd/powershell already have ssh
quartz kindle
putty and openssh use different types of keys
royal portal
u can't login into something you islanded
isnt that good?!?!1
lyric mountain
you need to reach the island somehow
royal portal
wdym
lyric mountain
like, you need to have a way to login
royal portal
also wtf is this
lyric mountain
C:\Users\<you>\.ssh\known_hosts
just the list of servers you willingly logged into
nothing to worry
I once saw a way to limit ssh to a single ip, then had to use a vpn to login
royal portal
like, you need to have a way to login
there is a way
lyric mountain
but idk, sometimes security has diminishing gains
royal portal
i use a site to access the vps
royal portal
how would i check that?!?!1
lyric mountain
for the rescue system? no
royal portal
without that
lyric mountain
probably
royal portal
boreal iron
Rescue system is a network boot with its own authorization level
They will show or send you the login credentials once you active it
royal portal
how do i know if its activated?!?!1
boreal iron
Take a look if the service is running
royal portal
you use then discard it
the rescue mode or what im doing now?!?!1
royal portal
Take a look if the service is running
well i didnt start it
royal portal
whats the service name?!?!1
royal portal
how would i test it
boreal iron
systemctl status sftp
royal portal
boreal iron
Hmm has a different name then I guess
boreal iron
Oh well then disable it in the conf file
Yeah itās a subsystem
nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config to edit its config
I mean you can also just setup the firewall properly and allow incoming connections for services you need only
Which would be recommended anyways
neat ingot
using discord js slash commands, is it possible to get the data a user types after the command? like, lets say i have a /admin action:send-message command, and i want to read all the junk the user types after the command, without adding another command option, is that possible?
boreal iron
Yeah auto complete is what you need
If thatās what you need
If you just wanna accept any input as argument for your option then choose string
Which has an unlimited length and accepts multi line inputs iirc
Auto complete however will send an event each key(s) the user types
(including the pressed key(s))
neat ingot
nah thats excessive, i just made my admin command have subcommands that can have the relevant options i need š
the commands only available in one server anyway so its only me that will ever use it lol
earnest phoenix
const emojis = interaction.guild.emojis.cache
.map((e) => `${e} **-** \`:${e.name}:\``)
.join(', ');```
How can I make it so it only shows like 15 emojis?
empty willow
nah that would still work, since they're mapping the collection to an array, then joining it
inserting the .slice between the .map and .join should work
neat ingot
yea but i was trying to big brain it and return only 15 from the cache lmao
quaint wasp
hey
So.. I started using an API and it returns a data with results that is an array of objects
and.. this does not work
data.results.size.toString()```
neat ingot
what are you logged to console there, the data?
quaint wasp
yeah
simple stump
Is it possible to have .setImage or .setThumbnail be a link? Specifically a gif. For some reason the embed shows up as loading for the image.
simple stump
.setImage returns the same thing. I can have the gif show up as an image/thumbnail if I'm getting the file directly, but via a link it doesn't work.
simple stump

huh. might just be imgur then. ill try smth elese
earnest phoenix
How can I delete all the global commands on the bot at once?
boreal iron
Updating them by sending an empty array may still work
But Iām not sure
client.application.commands.set([]);
earnest phoenix
I have really old Global commands loaded, and they won't delete using the simple one line delete command
boreal iron
Well fetch the commands and delete them in a loop then
earnest phoenix
Nope, they're all still there.
onst rest = new REST({ version: '9' }).setToken(token);
rest.get(Routes.applicationGuildCommands(clientId, guildId))
.then(data => {
const promises = [];
for (const command of data) {
const deleteUrl = `${Routes.applicationGuildCommands(clientId, guildId)}/${command.id}`;
promises.push(rest.delete(deleteUrl));
}
return Promise.all(promises);
});
Tried that, didn't work.
Said invalid form body
Well, now its that
quaint wasp
How do you change what a thing says in HTML with javascript functions?
I got this in my HTML file:
<body>
<script src="js/scripts.js"></script>
<p id="demo">ayo</p>
</body>
``` and this in my scripts:
```js
var axios = require("axios").default;
function logData(data) {
let activeEvents = 0;
let unactiveEvents = 0;
data.results.forEach(data => {
if(data.state == 'active') {
activeEvents++
} else if(!data.state == 'active') {
unactiveEvents++
}
});
let output = `there are ${activeEvents.toString()}/${data.results.length.toString()} active events!`
return output
}
var options = {
method: 'GET',
url: 'https://##########/v1/events/',
// params: {'': ''},
headers: {Authorization: 'Bearer #################'}
};
axios.request(options).then(function (response) {
let data = response.data
// console.log(data);
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = logData(data)
console.log(logData(data))
}).catch(function (error) {
console.error(error);
});```it works when I run the file it self but when I do the document get element it just ignores it
it doesnt change the ayo
wheat mesa
Should work to do document.getElementById("id").innerText = whateverYouWantHere
quaint wasp
does it still work if its in a function?
wheat mesa
It should
quaint wasp
but here it doesnt for some reaosn..
quaint wasp
same..
earnest phoenix
Are slash commands just a one-line-thing?
quaint wasp
Probably...
earnest phoenix
not my ad btw
boreal iron
Not if itās a string as option
earnest phoenix
Not if itās a string as option
It is a string.
oh
its required š¤£
It's optional, yet only one line.
boreal iron
And whatās the issue?
earnest phoenix
How can I get it to add that whole ad in the desc: option?
boreal iron
Start writing behind the parameter not in a new line
solemn latch
the way I would handle it, is by having setdescription send a dm to the user and have a message collector to get it.
boreal iron
Start writing behind the parameter not in a new line
earnest phoenix
the way I would handle it, is by having setdescription send a dm to the user and...
I'll just do that
boreal iron
Dude please read what I wrote
Your answer makes no sense
It has to have new lines tho
earnest phoenix
Tf does "Start writing behind the parameter, not in a new line" mean...?
boreal iron
I didnāt say remove all new lines, I said START behind the parameter and not START with a new line
earnest phoenix
It has to he spaced out tho?
Like
here
here
here
It has to have those.
It can't just be one big thrown together paragraph
herhehrherhehrehrhehrehrhehrh ehrh herhehrh ehrhehr
Nah, that looks fugly
boreal iron
Did you actually read what I wrote?
earnest phoenix
Did I actually understand it? nope š¤£
earnest phoenix
Idfk what this means
Start writing behind the parameter
Sorry, collectors are much more easier lol
boreal iron
Parameter = option
Your description is a slash command parameter (option in other words)
boreal iron
DONT BEGIN WITH A NEW LINE - JUST DONT
earnest phoenix
Alr, im just gonna use a collector, bye now š¤£
boreal iron
Am I speaking Spanish?
spark flint
LMAO
spark flint
Imagine trying to get help from someone if you arenāt gonna listen and cooperate?
earnest phoenix
I am trying
but I don't know how to write behind a param
how does it not begin with a new line
its a ad
tf?
spark flint
Theyāre trying to help you
earnest phoenix
so confusing
spark flint
Listen to them
earnest phoenix
Yeah, but Woo alr helped me.
spark flint
Donāt just jump to conclusions
earnest phoenix
All I said was I prefered to use collectors
boreal iron
earnest phoenix
Why would I do that?
spark flint
boreal iron
Start that first line of the ad behind your slash command option and do not start the first line with a new line
earnest phoenix
people are just gonna copy and paste their ads
there are multiple lines
Also
it is only set to get the desc: box
boreal iron
there are multiple lines
Yeah still I got that.
Paste the first line behind the slash command option and not in a new line
earnest phoenix
oml
boreal iron
The client will think you let the optional option emptY
earnest phoenix
Still making 0 sense tbh
boreal iron
It does
earnest phoenix
To you.
boreal iron
Just change the option to be required and you see what I mean
boreal iron
Dunno what youāre doing works fine for me
New lines works perfectly
As long as you donāt start with a new line right after your option
earnest phoenix
Your note getting it
:oml:
Wait
how did yours work
OMG
It didn't work fro e
egeigje
im done
boreal iron
earnest phoenix
not like a new line line
like
/setdescription desc: test
other line here
another here
boreal iron
It does even show the line break in the overview
earnest phoenix
but it only does desc: test and it reads the others as a "tab"
boreal iron
That works only for one option or if itās your last option
earnest phoenix
whaaat
I only have one option
Its the lines im trying to show man
let desc = interaction.options.getString('desc')
const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require('@discordjs/builders');
const { Permissions, Discord, MessageActionRow, MessageButton, MessageEmbed, MessageSelectMenu } = require('discord.js')
const db = require('quick.db')
module.exports = {
data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
.setName('setdescription')
.setDescription('Sets the Servers Description!')
.addStringOption(option => option.setName('desc')
.setDescription(`Set the Server Description.`)),
//.setRequired(true)),
async execute(interaction, client) {
await interaction.deferReply()
let desc = interaction.options.getString('desc')```That's what it is
yet
No lines I can do
so like
boreal iron
Dunno what youāre doing wrong
Works like a charm for me
earnest phoenix
Thats the thing
boreal iron
Lemme test 3 lines
earnest phoenix
im not doing anything wrong
/setdescription desc: test
test```it reads the 2nd line as a "TAB"
and ignores it
cause its not in the DESC box
earnest phoenix
Well its clearly not working for me
So im done
with it
done
bye
I have a headache
boreal iron
earnest phoenix
All that for nothin
boreal iron
At least I now know new lines being removed completely - not being parsed as white space
modest zealot
Yeah I don't think slash commands have support for spaces atm lol
boreal iron
Command names? No as well as options
earnest phoenix
I mean, aren't you guys using different clients
earnest phoenix
Newlines should work on mobile client (or at least what I'm using, Android), though nicknames can't have them
boreal iron
I mentioned that the client may interpret the new lines, especially the first line if not placed directly behind the option differently - up to ignoring the option completely
earnest phoenix
I mentioned that the client may interpret the new lines, especially the first li...
Thing is they had been doing what you said they didn't 
That is,
Start that first line of the ad behind your slash command option and do not start the first line with a new line
Even before you told them to do it, they already did it

i get this error when embeding a image but when i refresh discord the image is displayed correctly, what could be the cause for that (im using java with jda)
try {
final ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ImageIO.write(createImage(user), "png", bytes);
final User dev = event.getJDA().getUserById(Env.get("DEV_ID"));
final EmbedBuilder embed = new EmbedBuilder();
embed.setTitle(user.getNickname())
.setDescription("_Have a llamazing day!_")
.addField("Work", checkCooldown(user.getWork()), true)
.addField("Sleep", checkCooldown(user.getSleep()), true)
.setThumbnail(event.getUser().getAvatarUrl())
.setFooter("Created by " + dev.getName(), dev.getAvatarUrl())
.setTimestamp(Instant.now())
.setImage("attachment://alpagotchi.png");
event.replyEmbeds(embed.build())
.addFile(bytes.toByteArray(), "alpagotchi.png")
.queue();
} catch (IOException error) {
LOGGER.error(error.getMessage());
}
so im using ByteArrayOutputStream to create the image and sending it as a bytearray to discord, but for some reasons it fails sometimes
im using the ByteArrayOutputStream because i want to keep the image in memory and dont want to save it on the local disk, could there be another way?

Although, how am I supposed to set the ping of the edit in the embed, you need to wait for it to be done.
quartz kindle
you're measuring how much time it takes to generate an embed object
which is 0ms
you have two options:
either measure the ping of all messages, and just send the latest one
or send a temp message/update to measure, then update again with the result

you can manually call the websocket ping function
What?
Could you check the code? I think the way I did was also good but it would not update.
quartz kindle
i have not tested, but according to the docs this is how a manual websocket ping would work:
const socket = client.ws.shards.get(shard_id).connection // or client.ws.shards.first().connection if you only have one internal shard
const now = Date.now();
socket.once("pong", () => {
const time = Date.now() - now;
// do something with time;
});
socket.ping();
alr so
i'm trying to now make a bot with discordjs
how the fuck do i add commands
with discord.py its
@client.command()
async def command_name(ctx):

marble juniper
discord.js does not come included with a command handler
covert gale
oh
marble juniper
you have to code it yourself
covert gale
make command handler

check out the guide
it has the code in there too
do you wanna do it with slash commands or over normal messages @spark flint
or both
idk
spark flint
normal messages
marble juniper
check out the v12 guide then
its for v12 and therefore not up to date
but the v13 guide only shows you how to use slash commands
so you have to use the v12 guide
but the code in it should still work
covert gale
bunny dms
spark flint
ok
proven escarp
for which bot lol
mee6
marble juniper
lol
marble juniper
just make sure you have a commands folder
marble juniper
yeah
that is gonna get really ugly if you do it in djs
its better if you split ur commands into multiple files
doing it all in a single file is very hard to maintain with djs
proven escarp
nya has over 50 files or something like that
marble juniper
make sure you got the latest nodejs version
you need nodejs v16 or higher
for discord.js v13 to function
proven escarp
npm install discord.js@12.x.x
spark flint
ah i have node 14
marble juniper
lol
proven escarp

discord.js v13 is better
since you can customize caching with caching options
thus reducing memory usage
still high since its djs but its still an improvement compared to v12

Tim quick question (or anyone else who is there)
const siteTitle = title ?? content.title ?? 'Astro'
is this valid javascript
lol
are you allowed to chain the ?? together like this
earnest phoenix
it is like soft and hard (false) (undefined)
solemn latch
for most cases ?? is actually the correct usage, its just || was the only way to do it for so long that everyone still uses ||
cinder patio
The reason is semantics, let's say the user provides some option, and you want to assign it to a variable, or if they did not provide anything, set it to a default value:
const option = selectedOption || 256
But what if 0 is a valid option? Before you'd have to explicitly check if selectedOption is undefined or null
now you can use ??
lament rock
I know it strictly checks null, but more often than not, I find it literally useless unless dealing with numbers which is less often than I need to use logical OR
quartz kindle
same, i dont even bother using it for the cases it's made for either
solemn latch
I guess it kind of depends on your usage, but I use ?? maybe 5/6 times
quartz kindle
im not a big fan of writing bleeding edge code that only works on the latest versions
lament rock
Unless its ts you can transpile to older ECMA versions
quartz kindle
thats exactly what transpilers will do, convert all your ??s to ternaries and shit
so i rather just write the end code myself lul

let a = 0 !== null && 0 !== void 0 ? 0 : 1;

yes but ts compiler isn't so intelligent

i was looking at d.js but it seems like they dont have this yet
lament rock
Djs' is a proxy like
client.api.guilds[guild_id]["scheduled-events"][guild_scheduled_event_id].users
otherwise, if you have a way to make an http request with a path, it'd be /api/v9/guilds/:guild_id/scheduled-events/:guild_scheduled_event_id/users
unless the method that's exposed prepends /api/v9
sterile lantern

when using the djs router, you need to call .get() at the end as well
you can also pass query params to the options object

earnest phoenix
Can someone help me come up with a leveling system? I absolutely suck at math.
sudden geyser
set xp requirements for each level
and generate a random number between a range to determine how many points some user earns for something
e.g. sending a message
and bam now you have a leveling system
personally I think most/all of them suck
earnest phoenix
Mmmm
Setting an xp requirement is annoying for the kind of xp system I wanna make
sudden geyser
I'd rather see a points system like Points where you can assign and earn points through specific activities defined by the server and spend them on items
earnest phoenix
I don't want there to be a level cap
earnest phoenix
I'd rather see a points system like Points where you can assign and earn points ...
It's going to be earned randomly when using the bots commands
But I wanna make an infinite level system
sudden geyser
then you can just do the generation part
and have some algorithm for what level the user is at
like exponential levels most bots deploy
earnest phoenix
Mmmm
That's the tough part for me cause that requires a lot of math and I'm not good at math š©
sudden geyser
hmm
earnest phoenix
hmm
So when you mean exponential levels, do you mean like using an exponential growth formula?
sudden geyser
yes
earnest phoenix
so like
f(x) = a(1+r)^x
gotten from google btw
depends on what you wanna do and assuming position 0 in the array is a string then sure
alright then yea that should work
you could shorten that tho
actually
idk if it would work in practice
my thinking is you could probably do if(!args.includes(blah)) but now that I am thinking about it I don't think that will work since you wanna check for both
:p
so ignore me
mhm mhm
what about it
spark flint
boreal iron
Just perform simple math then
quartz kindle
methmetiks
boreal iron
Like growing the xp by 50% for example
boreal iron
methmetiks
earnest phoenix
Won't growing the xp by percentages like that get too easy at some point
Also, I am trying to make an infinite level system so idk how exactly to determine when they actually level up
boreal iron
Than add the current xp to it
earnest phoenix
wdym
boreal iron
new xp = current xp * 1.5 + current xp
Dunno why you would like to over complicate such a simple thing
earnest phoenix
listen here
I suck at math and so my brain isn't as big as urs when it comes to calculations and coming up with calculations
boreal iron
Ok but the upper example is easy, isnāt it?
earnest phoenix
`new xp = current xp * 1.5 + current xp `
Multiply it by 2.5 already >:D
But how do I determine when they actually go up a level
that is just calculating new xp no?
boreal iron
that is just calculating new xp no?
By storing the level and xp of course
earnest phoenix
They're probably saying to do not and instead
earnest phoenix
By storing the level and xp of course
That makes me even moreconfused
reeeeeeee

Well things require a lot of effort, they donāt work magically 
If you wanna store any information persistently you will need to deal with a database

I dont think you understand what I am trying to ask
I know how to store things
I dont know how to determine how to go from level 1 to level 2 when the levels are infinite so there is no xp requirement per level like klay was saying
quartz kindle
well, that works too, but literally all you had to do was use && instead of ||
quartz kindle
I dont know how to determine how to go from level 1 to level 2 when the levels a...
the amount of xp required for the next level is the amount of xp required for the current level multiplied by something
earnest phoenix
But with an infinite level system how do you know the required amount for the current level
say you start out at level 0
quartz kindle
you can come up with a formula that only uses the level and nothing else, like current level multiplied by some constant
earnest phoenix
how do you determine how much you need for level 1 and then 2 and 3 and so on
quartz kindle
there are a million different formulas for that kind of thing
quartz kindle
Someone said exponential growth formula
this is exponential
for a lot of people, exponential is too steep, but if you like it, just use that
earnest phoenix
š¤
So, can you give me an example of how this could work
I assume that the number in the exp method is the level right?
quartz kindle
do you reset exp on every level up?
earnest phoenix
and the result is the amount of xp you need for that level
quartz kindle
or is the xp cumulative?
earnest phoenix
I think the xp will be cumulative
quartz kindle
yes
earnest phoenix
Makes sense
What do you think would be a good amount of xp to add to a user?
Essentially the idea is you get xp randomly when using one of the commands in the bot
but i don't wanna make it super easy to jump from level 0 to a higher level
quartz kindle
heres a few examples of different exp curves
quartz kindle
What do you think would be a good amount of xp to add to a user?
depends on what your base xp is
for example, lets say you are level 1
Math.exp(1) = 2.something
thats very low
literally 2 xp
if you want it to be like, 100 xp required
you can do Math.exp(1) * 50
so then instead of 2 xp, 100 xp will be required
then for level 3, instead of 5 xp, if will be 250
so just add a multiplier to get the desired range you want to work with
earnest phoenix
I think 50 is good
quartz kindle
just keep in mind that exponential growth leveling is usually used together with exponential reward increase
like, the higher level you are, the more exp you get
quartz kindle
fight higher level monsters etc
earnest phoenix
The idea behind is at certain level milestones you unlock something else
quartz kindle
because level 10 requires literally 10000x more exp than level 2
earnest phoenix
Ah right
quartz kindle
135 xp for level 2
earnest phoenix
110k xp for level 10
quartz kindle
1 million xp for level 10
earnest phoenix
Yea
quartz kindle
so its not a very good system for messages for example, if messages always give the same amount of exp
earnest phoenix
My idea behind the infinite leveling system was at certain level milestones you unlock something new in the bot
but I am not even sure if that is a good idea anymore
earnest phoenix
Yea
I am just unsure anymore aha
Cause then I have to go in and code those milestones
which can be tedious since it is infinite
boreal iron
Just use the modulo to check if a level is a potential of 10 for example to dynamically create milestones every 10 levels
_arrr thx auto correct _
quartz kindle
Cause then I have to go in and code those milestones
what fake said
if(currentLevel % 10 === 0) { 10 levels milestone reached }
if(currentLevel % 25 === 0) { 25 levels milestone reached }
boreal iron
I mean milestone names, icons etc. can be random
earnest phoenix
if(currentLevel % 10 === 0) { 10 levels milestone reached }
That would be tedious still no?
quartz kindle
also, here's a simple leveling formula with a more moderate growth curve
Math.sqrt(level) * level * 100
that's 100 xp for level 2
3000 exp for level 10
approximately
earnest phoenix
That is a lot better
That is the thing
I dont know exactly how much to give per command use
quartz kindle
random number between 1 and 5?
earnest phoenix
since I don't want to make it impossible to level up when they start getting higher levels
boreal iron
In your case i would calculate the xp by the content length
quartz kindle
think about how many messages you want people to need for them to level up at certain levels
if its approx 10 xp per message, then its 10 messages to level 2
28 messages to level 3
51 messages to level 4
etc
meaning, 18 messages from level 2 to level 3
earnest phoenix
Its not per message though
I want it to occur randomly when using the command.
every other command usage should give xp
quartz kindle
alright then if there is a 50% chance of getting 10 xp
earnest phoenix
/command - no xp
/command - get xp
earnest phoenix
There will be a cooldown for the command
quartz kindle
cooldown is not relevant for this
earnest phoenix
I mean yea, but if wass is worried about spamming to gain levels it won't matter.
there will be cooldowns
quartz kindle
just think about how many exp-worth instances of an action the user needs to do to achive x levels, and think if you like that amount
earnest phoenix
I like the 50% chance of 10xp
quartz kindle
if you think its too little or too much, adjust your formulas
earnest phoenix
How would that formula look? would it essentially be what you were doing with Math.sqrt?
quartz kindle
square root is kinda the opposite of exponential
earnest phoenix
true
quartz kindle
instead of the amount increasing with increasing base, it decreases instead
earnest phoenix
and also when the level gets to a certain point won't you need to raise the amount of xp gained from 10 - something
quartz kindle
so the difference from 1 to 2 is bigger than the difference from 2 to 3
earnest phoenix
instead of the amount increasing with increasing base, it decreases instead
ouch my brain hurt with that statement
quartz kindle
so i added another multiplier to correct for that
so it turns into a slight increase instead of decrease
quartz kindle
just write a loop that counts to 20
and make it log the xp for each number
and tweak it until you like the numbers
for example
i is the current level
earnest phoenix
ya
quartz kindle
tweak the numbers around it, and see how it affects the growth curve
quartz kindle
in the above example yes
earnest phoenix
and what is the 50 again?
quartz kindle
another multiplier
to adjust how big you want your numbers to be
ie if you want exp to be 100,200,300 or 10000,20000,30000
earnest phoenix
I see
That makes a bit more sense
so I could do
if(currXp < (Math.sqrt(currLevel) * (currLevel+1) * 50)) {levelUp()}
yup
earnest phoenix
also what is the point of the +1
quartz kindle
another way to give you more control
earnest phoenix
Ah
quartz kindle
if you increase it to +2 or +3 it wll slightly increase the overall exp requirements
if you reduce it to -1 or -2 it will decrease it
earnest phoenix
with +3 5k is the req for 20
Makes sense
I like that
So I also wanna ask for advice on how to handle the milestone stuff
I noticed you guys say use modulo right?
so you can give them rewards every 10 levels
quartz kindle
for example, the difference between i+1 and i+2 is 50 exp at level 1, and 220 exp at level 20
earnest phoenix
for example, the difference between i+1 and i+2 is 50 exp at level 1, and 220 ex...
I see
quartz kindle
I noticed you guys say use modulo right?
yes
