Configuring ScrimBot

A tutorial on running through the configuration process for ScrimBot.

Preparing your server for ScrimBot:

In order for ScrimBot to function correctly, it is imperative that you follow these instructions.

Failure to do so will result in certain commands not working as intended, if at all.

ScrimBot requires the following:

1. Team Roles must be at the bottom of the role-list, under any other roles given to users (bot roles are fine). <insert image>

2. The Captain role (if you have one) must be above all of the Team Roles.

3. You must have at least one specific channel for GameID collection.

The configuration process:

To begin, simply type the following command into a channel (preferably a hidden one, so users don't get spammed with messages).

-configure

This will bring up a message from ScrimBot informing you that you have started the configuration process.

Step 1: Confirm you have set the server up correctly.

You will be prompted with a similar message to the one above, explaining the requirements of ScrimBot. If you have followed the instructions, respond with:

Yes

Step 2: Give the name of the "Captain" role.

Most servers have a "Captain" role for team captains. The captain gathering command (described later) gathers all players with this role.

If you have a Captain role, enter the full name of it. For example, if you had a role called Captain, you would respond like so:

Captain

You do not need to @mention the role, so long as you respond with the full name.

Step 3: List the channels that the -gameID command is allowed in.

In this step, you need to list the channels that the "-gameID" command is allowed in. It can be more than one channel, but you must have at least 1 channel for this purpose.

This channel will be dedicated purely for GameID collection, and all messages sent to this channel will automatically be deleted, even if they are not related to ScrimBot.

Simply enter the full name of the channels, one at a time, pressing enter after every channel. Once you have finished typing all the channels, type "finish".

For example, if you had the channels solo-gamecodes, duo-gamecodes and squad-gamecodes, you would enter the following:

solo-gamecodes  ## press enter
duo-gamecodes   ## press enter
squad-gamecodes ## press enter
finish          ## press enter

Like when adding the Captain Role, you do not need to #mention the channels, but you can if you wish.

Finished!

At this point, ScrimBot should inform you that the server has been properly configured.

You are now able to use ScrimBot!
