Replace WoW icons with discord analogs

Open ForesterDev opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

Suggestion: There are some wow icons {star}, {skull}, {cross}, {circle}, {moon}, {diamond}, {square}, {triangle}.

In discord should be replaced with discord analog emoji {star} - :star: {skull} - :skull: {cross} - :x: , {circle} - :black_circle:, {moon } - :crescent_moon:, {diamond} - :diamonds:, {square} - :black_medium_square:, {triangle} - :small_red_triangle: or others (maybe serverspecific emojis)

Besides the fact that Discord analogues aren't the exact emojis, there is also the question of localization. This seems like for the russian case, it gets transferred as {Квадрат} over the wire which will make this a lot more difficult.

Maybe create file with list of words, that should be replaced. And users can fill it themselves.

I think the solution would to just replace the {} with :: So example when the bot see's {skull} it would just relay :skull: to the discord channel. This way users can setup their own custom emotes on the discord server if they which to display the icons and if they dont its not a big deal since it will just show :skull: in discord versus {skull}.
