Detect Bots and Bot Prefixes

Open Exper1mental opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

Might be more trouble than it is worth but I had the idea for a ClemBot command that provides basic information about the various bots in that server. e.g. their command prefix and a basic description (if possible). Would be great to include a link to their list of commands or specify what the user should type to get the command list (e.g. !help)

The idea being the user could type !bots or something like that and get general information about the different bots in the server, as sometimes bots (like the Groovy bot) may be a bit hidden from view when not in use.

While its probably technically possible it certainly would not be an easy thing to implement

We could however list all bots, but tbh its probably not something that we want because some servers prefer to have hidden bots

Like oc the CS server has several bots behind the scenes including dyno groovy and yag

We could have it as a feature admins could enable/disable, and also put in "whitelist" and "blacklist" modes. Whitelist mode of course only shows specified bots, blacklist mod shows all bots not specified.

But then, that's more work in addition to implementing the core functionality.
