Hey everyone! I’m working on a Discord bot that’s kind of like Garam. It’s supposed to have a /drop command that gives out random cards. I’ve got some of it done already, but I’m stuck and could use some help finishing it up.
I’m not super experienced with coding, so any advice would be awesome. If someone wants to lend a hand, that’d be great! I can offer payment, but if you’re feeling generous and want to help for free, I’d be over the moon!
The bot has a bunch of features planned, including a shop system. Most of it might be coded already, but I’m not sure. If you’re interested in helping out or want more info, just let me know!
Thanks for reading, and fingers crossed someone can help me out!
Having developed Discord bots myself, I can share some advice on your random card drop system. Consider implementing a weighted probability system for card rarity. This adds excitement and value to rarer cards. For the shop, integrate a currency system that ties into the card drops, creating a cohesive economy.
Security is crucial. Ensure your bot has proper permissions and rate limiting to prevent abuse. Also, thoroughly test edge cases to avoid unexpected behavior.
If you’re struggling with specific aspects, I’d recommend breaking down the project into smaller, manageable tasks. Focus on one feature at a time, starting with the core functionality of the card drops. This approach will help you make steady progress and avoid feeling overwhelmed.
Let me know if you need clarification on any particular coding challenges you’re facing.
I’ve actually worked on a similar Discord bot project before, and I can offer some insights. For the random card drop feature, you’ll want to set up a database or JSON file to store your card information. Then, use a random number generator to select a card when the /drop command is triggered.
One thing to keep in mind is rate limiting. You don’t want users spamming the command, so implement a cooldown system. Also, consider adding rarity tiers to make some cards more valuable than others.
For the shop system, you’ll need to track user currency and implement purchase logic. Make sure to have proper error handling for insufficient funds or inventory issues.
If you’re struggling with specific code issues, I’d be happy to take a look. Just post some snippets of what you’ve got so far, and I can point you in the right direction. Good luck with your project!
hey there! i’ve messed around with discord bots before. for the random card drops, you could use an array with card info and Math.random() to pick one. cooldowns are important too, so users cant spam it.
if ur stuck on specific parts, maybe share some code snippets? id be happy to take a look and give some pointers. good luck with ur project!
