Help needed for app_commands.choice max choices

[NavisGames]

Hello! I have a few app_command options for some roulette stuff, now roulette lets you select a single number from 1 to 36 instead of a "group of numbers".

Now you only have 25 choices, but I have many more choices

This command is inspired by UnbelieaveaBoat, which offers well over 25 choices.

How to add it in discord.py too?

@tree.command(
    name="roulette", description="Play roulette and multipliers high multipliers!"
)
@app_commands.describe(
    number="Amount of money in your wallet that you want to gamble with! (e.g. 10 or all)"
)
@app_commands.choices(
    fields=[
        app_commands.Choice(name="🔴 Red", value="RED"),
        app_commands.Choice(name="⚫ Black", value="BLACK"),
        app_commands.Choice(name="🔶 even", value="EVEN"),
        app_commands.Choice(name="🔷 odd", value="ODD"),
        app_commands.Choice(name=" 0", value="GREEN"),
        app_commands.Choice(name="1-12", value="1ST"),
        app_commands.Choice(name="13-24", value="2ND"),
        app_commands.Choice(name="25-36", value="3RD"),
        app_commands.Choice(name="1st column", value="2TO1 1"),
        app_commands.Choice(name="2nd column", value="2TO1 2"),
        app_commands.Choice(name="3rd column", value="2TO1 3"),
    ]
)
async def roulette(
    Interaction: Discord.Interaction,
    number: st,
    fields: app_commands.Choice[str],
):
#...

Here is some of the code needed.

Autocomplete options and choices have a fixed limit at 25, can't go past that.

Discord API does however support optional minimum and maximum limits for numeric and string types. So to pick a number between 1-36, you can annotate to a Range, for example:

@app_commands.command()
async def command(interaction: discord.Interaction, number: app_commands.Range[int, 1, 36]):
    ...

Won't be able to make a choice for each number between 1-36 since you can only have up to 25 per argument.

I'd recommend keeping 1-36 as a range type, and categorising each of the other options into their own arguments
For example, red and black can be a colour argument, even or odd can be parity and 1st/2nd/3rd columns can be a column argument.

okay. Weird that a Bot from a User named Unbelieveaboat can have more than 25 choices

What is returned by autocomplete is dynamic, not fixed. In your last screenshot you started typing something hence the options changed dynamically. You can return whatever you want from an autocomplete callback so it's technically unlimited, but the limit is still 25 choices displayed at once.

Hope this clarifies it. 🙂
