Any better way to have multiple bots running at once?

[turntup1234]

Created an account to say thank you for this bot - it served my purposes greatly. Couple of things I ran into:

• can invite multiple bots by copying the original folder, and running 2 cmds, and changing the tokens in the json
• the c.ai token does not change, only the discord bot token
• was able to invite 3 bots to the same server
• have to set their individual bot permissions, they were named "Bobbot", "Davidbot", etc
• create new bot command channel, invite bots to them one at a time to set c.ai link, and adjust as needed
• by having them only able to read this channel, you can set their permissions separately. Kick them and invite next bot when done
• they will only talk in one channel at a time. have to kick them from everywhere except #general
• alternatively, I suppose you could change the .json file bot prefix. "!" "!!" "!!!" etc.
• they do not reply to @s, only replies
• revoking their emoji access means they will not have the < > emojis, which cycle their generated c.ai replies. For better or worse, it helps flow if users are not constantly switching their messages around.

upd note: sorry for editing your message, I just couldn't read it properly D: > symbols do stack here

All in all, great work, but any advice on inviting 4 of them to a public discord, and not causing complete havoc? Can I completely set up the bots beforehand, or are their permissions separate for each server? I'm unsure how much of their likeness carries over between servers. If it's saved in the discord dev portal, on the server they are invited to, or locally on my computer

Thank you for feedback

Yes, of course you can

they do not reply to @s, only replies

You had to simply place a spacebar between message and mention, hehe.

revoking their emoji access means they will not have the < > emojis, which cycle their generated c.ai replies

Maybe it's just me and my problems with understanding some english speech expressions, but what do you mean by "cycle their generated c.ai replies"? About emojis, you can disable it with a simple little change in the Config file:

The best way would be:

1. Create some bot role on this server.
2. Create a text channel.
3. Set this role to be allowed to see only this particular channel.
4. Place this role name to Config file.
5. Set different prefixed for bots in Config.
6. Invite them on server and give them all this role from step one.
7. Proceed as usual.
8. Highly recommend to enable Audience mode

On dev portal, there's only avatar, original nickname and basic settings like token and permissions.
On server, there's a nickname and role.
Everething else is on your PC.

About permissions. As it said in setup guide, you will need admin rights anyway, no matter what server it is. Otherwise, private rooms just won't work. Maybe something else will break too, I'm not sure.
