IMM_DISCORD

=== STAFF MANUAL === Usage: discord <message> Description: Broadcast a line of text to both the in-game DISCORD channel and the linked external Discord server. Messages sent with this command are mirrored two ways: every in-game subscriber on the channel sees the line in their chat buffer, and the bridge relays the raw text out through DiscordBridge::Send so the Discord-side room picks it up as well. Use this to hail Discord-only players, coordinate with the staff room, or answer questions coming in from outside the game. Anything sent is visible under your staff name on both sides of the bridge, so treat it as a public announcement. Output Format: Other players on the channel see: [DISCORD] <name>: <message> You see the same line framed toward yourself: [DISCORD] -> <message> The line is stored in each recipient's discord history buffer, not the general chat buffer -- view it with the appropriate history command rather than chathist. Restrictions: - Requires the Game staff permission. - You must have at least position stunned to issue the command. Dead or incapacitated characters cannot speak on Discord. - The channel must not be muted in your personal channel list. If it is, you see "You aren't even on the DISCORD channel!". - You must be above the configured level_can_shout threshold -- the same gate that applies to shout, chat, and the other global channels. - Muted players (PLR_NOSHOUT) are silenced here like on every other global channel. Timed mutes still show the [N minutes remaining] prefix. - Soundproof rooms block the command unless you have nohassle enabled. The reply is "The walls seem to absorb your words.". - An empty message yields the usual "Yes, discord, fine, discord we must, but WHAT???" refusal. Rate Limiting: Unlike the other global channels, discord runs through an external bridge and is rate-limited per character. Sending too quickly returns: You are sending to Discord too fast. Wait a moment and try again. Staff with nohassle enabled bypass the rate limiter entirely. Notes: - Recipients are filtered the same way as other channels: not playing, writing mail, in a soundproof room, or with the channel muted will all skip delivery -- but those players still hear the line on Discord if they are watching there. - The message is relayed to Discord with your character name, not your account name. Pick your handle accordingly. Related Helpfiles: CHANNELS === END MANUAL ===
