I have a problem with my code (Discord.py)

[kindred saffron]

In this if

[misty quail]

i got you

If self.bot.tr is not evaluating to True, the code will not enter the if block and will always go to the else part.

thats the problem

also check if its not overwritten

[kindred saffron]

I don't understand, what can I do to solve it?

[deep spruce]

Where do you set self.tot

[kindred saffron]

in the init

[deep spruce]

So maybe it would make sense to show us that code, no?

[kindred saffron]

Ok, im sorryy

I changed the code but the problem is more or less still the same

@deep spruce ?

[deep spruce]

That N gets reset everytime a button is pressed

[kindred saffron]

And how do I prevent this from happening?

[deep spruce]

Don't set N = 0 everytime?

[kindred saffron]

and how do I declare N then?

[oak sun]

set N=0 outside the function and set it as a global variable?

[deep spruce]

Won't work as soon as multiple people use the bot but yeah

Also not sure how that'd work with sharding

🗿

[oak sun]

ooh

hmhmhm
i'm not familiar with making discord bots
i just said smth random that popped in my mind lol

[deep spruce]

No you're correct

My point was just that building distributed systems can be quite challenging (and that building Discord bots for more complex interactions is probably not the best idea)

[kindred saffron]

How do I fix this problem then?

[deep spruce]

That's the easy fix

Doing it properly definitely involves some sort of synchronization between the shards, storing state in the interaction for each user in some database, etc.

self.tot will never be true because you never even declare it inside that class
