Using the bot as a service

I decided to provide the bot as a free service going forward. Feel free to invite the bot to your discord server and use it as you please. Please reach out if something doesn’t work for you.

This service is provided to the best of my ability. I can not guarantee that the bot is available 24/7. I also reserve the right to prohibit you from using the bot at any time if there is any suspicion of misuse.

Setup Guide

  1. Invite Jarvis (the bot) to your discord server.
  2. Create a new channel that is designated for the status embed.
  3. Restrict the permissions for the new channel so that members of your server can read messages but can not post anything in there. This includes the following permissions:
    • View Channel
    • Read Message History
  4. Ensure that Jarvis is allowed to read from and write to the channel. This includes the following permissions:
    • View Channel
    • Send Messages
    • Embed Links
    • Manage Messages
    • Read Message History
  5. Ensure that ListOnSteam in ServerHostSettings.json is set to true. This is required for the status embed to work.
  6. Find the IP Address and Query Port of your v rising server. Battlemetrics might come in handy here.
  7. Use the /add-server command and specify the server-hostname and server-query-port. This is where you enter the IP Address and Query Port that you determined in the previous step. You will receive a server-id when to command completed successfully. You will need this id in the next step.
  8. Use the /configure-status-monitor command and specify the server-id and channel-id. The channel-id determines in which channel the status embed is posted.
  9. Wait for a few minutes for the status embed to appear.

If no status embed appears after 3 minutes, use the /get-server-details command with the server-id that Jarvis gave you in step 7. This will give you a detailed error message of what went wrong. In most cases, it simply means that the IP Address or Query Port are incorrect. You can always change them using the /update-server command. Feel free to check the commands documentation for details.
