Events and reminders

Post the event calendar

1. 1

   Create a channel such as #event-calendar where only admins can write.

2. 2

   Run /calendar setup channel: #event-calendar create_discord_events: True. Choose False if the bot does not have Manage Events.

3. 3

   For exact Egg and Hammer dates, also fill last_event and last_egg_pattern with the egg or hammer happening now or next.

4. 4

   The bot posts the tracker and creates one role per event. It edits the post every day by itself.

Let members pick their pings

1. 1

   Tell members to press Pick up Reminder Roles under the tracker.

2. 2

   Each member picks the events they care about. Only they see the menu.

3. 3

   The bot pings each role on time: MGE and More Than Gems a day ahead, gem events 12 hours ahead, the rest at the start.

Explain an event

1. 1

   Make sure Event Info (or All Commands) has a channel: /channel add group: Event Info channel: #bot-commands.

2. 2

   Run /event and pick an event from the suggestions.

3. 3

   Pick Gem events compared to see where gems go furthest.

Ancient Ruins and Altar of Darkness

1. 1

   Find the first opening time in game.

2. 2

   Run /reminder setup channel: #reminders reminder_type: Ancient Ruins first_instance: 12:00 01/07/2026 last_instance: 12:00 01/07/2027.

3. 3

   Pick when to ping with reminder_1_hour, reminder_4_hour and reminder_8_hour, or custom_intervals like 1d, 4h, now. With nothing picked, it pings 4 hours before.

4. 4

   The bot creates a reminder role and posts a role menu. Members opt in there.

5. 5

   Repeat for the Altar of Darkness.

Your own reminders

1. 1

   Run /reminder custom with a title, a channel, the first time and how often it repeats, for example 1d. Use 0 for a one time reminder.

2. 2

   Set last_instance to never if it should keep going.

3. 3

   Add role_to_ping and message if you want. It pings 1 hour before unless you change it.

4. 4

   See them all with /reminder list, and delete one with /reminder delete.
