Describe the bug The bot responds in private messages even if command is sent in group
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Send message to bot in group
- Bot responds in private message
Expected behavior Bot sends response to group
My guess would be that this is related to groups v2. These didn't exist back when I implemented the bot. I'm not able to look into this right now but I'm happy to merge a fix if you have one! Otherwise I'll get to it at some point.
I would love to but my Java skills are just very basic. Looking forward and thanks
Yes, this is related to groups v2 as the bot replies just fine when in a "legacy group".
@YouTubeATP Can you please tell what are legacy groups?

They are basically the groups back when Signal was in a older version. These groups did not support group admins and @mentions and more, while the new ones do. In order to create a legacy group nowadays there must be at least one member who hasn't updated Signal to a version that supports the new groups
Thank you so much for the help!
I'd need a signal bot for non-legacy-groups. I offer $100 US sent in BTC for whoever fixes this issue.
Independent of this offer, @aaronetz would you know if there was a better Signal bot around, without the quite severe limitations mentioned in the Readme.md (and found here)?

Bro that's 3,170,780.00 USD. Are you sure?

$100 is $100. The $ sign is being used for many currencies, the USD being the highest valued one to my knowledge. I have not seen anyone using your interpretation of "$" but made it more clear above nevertheless :grinning:.

Well, I misunderstood your statement, guess I was not being careful.
Just to keep you posted, I brought the code base up to date with the latest signal library, but supporting new groups would be a significant amount of work (they are much more complex than legacy groups) and I presently don't have the time to work on this. But I would definitely welcome anyone who wants to give it a shot.
Anyone who wants to give it a shot, you can look at the excellent https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli for reference. It's a command line interface for Signal and it has been updated to support the new Groups.
