Hey everyone, I’m running a Discord server for my gaming group and could use some advice. We’re on the hunt for a bot that can help us keep tabs on our in-game days and special events. For example, we’ve got a vampire-like character who needs to feed regularly, and another player with a recurring event.
It would be awesome if we could use simple commands like !nextday to add a day to our in-game calendar, or !snack to reset the feeding timer for our bloodsucker. Has anyone come across a bot that might fit the bill? Or any suggestions on how to set something like this up?
We’re not super tech-savvy, so user-friendly options are a big plus. Thanks in advance for any tips or recommendations you can share!
I’ve been using a bot called Chronicler for my D&D group, and it might be just what you’re looking for. It’s designed specifically for roleplay and tabletop games, so it handles in-game time tracking really well. You can set up custom calendars, track multiple events, and use commands to advance time or check upcoming events.
For your vampire character, you could easily set up a recurring ‘hunger’ event. The bot can send reminders when it’s time to feed. As for the !nextday command, Chronicler has something similar built-in. It’s pretty intuitive to use, even if you’re not super tech-savvy.
The only downside is that it might have more features than you need, which can be a bit overwhelming at first. But once you get the hang of it, it’s a powerful tool for keeping your game organized. Worth checking out if you want something tailored for RPG time management.
yo, check out carl-bot! it’s pretty sweet for custom commands and reminders. u can set up stuff like !nextday to ping everyone bout the new day, or !snack to DM ur vamp dude. it’s got a web dashboard that makes it easy to set up even if ur not a tech wizard. give it a shot!
Have you considered using a multi-purpose bot like MEE6 or Dyno? While they’re not specifically designed for event tracking, they offer customizable commands and reminders that could work for your needs. You could set up custom commands like !nextday or !snack to trigger specific responses or actions. For more complex tracking, you might want to look into Discord.py or Discord.js libraries to create a simple custom bot. It’s not as daunting as it sounds, and there are plenty of tutorials available online. Alternatively, you could use a shared Google Calendar integrated with Discord through IFTTT for a low-tech solution. Hope this helps point you in the right direction!
