Discord-PUG-Bot

A Discord bot for organising Pickup Games. Aimed at Rocket League and written for use on discord.gg/rlo

Players will be able to initiate a PUG, signup for a PUG, then once enough players join, the bot will randomly and evenly assign players to teams

Commands

!start Starts a PUG, allowing players to join.

!join Allows players to join if a PUG has been started.

!teamsize n Allows the team size to be set to size n. Team size must be 1-4 players.

!jointime n Allows the time for players to join the PUG to be adjusted to n minutes. Time can be from 1-9 minutes.

Installation

This is developed using node.js and the discord.js library. To run the bot you'll need to create a bot from the Discord developers page and add the bot to your server. Then;

• Install node.js

Known Bugs

• When teams are assigned, team2[0] will be undefined and the first player added as team2[1]
• (workaround in place) teamSize, matchSize, setupTime all initialise as undefined rather than an int
• if !start is used just before the timeout time for ending a PUG executes, the current PUG will be cancelled
