AutoMuteUs

AutoMuteUs is a Discord Bot to harness Among Us game data, and automatically mute/unmute players during games!

Requires amonguscapture to capture and relay game data.

Have any questions, concerns, bug reports, or just want to chat? Join our discord at https://discord.gg/ZkqZSWF!

Click the "invite me" badge in the header to invite the bot to your server, or click the GIF on the left.

All artwork for the bot has been generously provided by Smiles!

⚠️ Requirements ⚠️

  1. You must run the Capture application on your Windows PC for the bot to work! Any Among Us games that don't have a user running the capture software will not have automuting capabilities!
  2. The Capture application currently only supports the Steam, Epic Games, itch.io, and Microsoft Store releases of the game, but does not support beta or cracked versions.

Quickstart

Usage and Commands

To start a bot game in the current channel, type the following .au command in Discord after inviting the bot:

.au new
# Starts a game, and allows users to react to emojis to link to their in-game players

The bot will send you a private message (make sure your Discord settings allow DMs from server members!) with a link that is used to sync the capture software to your game. It will also have a link to download the latest version of the capture software, if you don't have it already.

If you want to view command usage or see the available options, type .au or .au help in your Discord channel.

Commands

The Discord Bot uses the .au prefix for any commands by default; if you change your prefix remember to replace .au with your custom prefix. If you forget your prefix, you can @mention the bot and it will respond with whatever it's prefix currently is.

Self-Hosting

If you would prefer to self-host the bot, the steps for doing so are provided below. Self-hosting requires robust knowledge and troubleshooting capability for Docker/Docker-compose, unRAID, Heroku, and/or any other networking and routing config specific to your hosting solution.

As such, we recommend that the majority of users take advantage of our Verified bot. The link to invite our bot can be found here:

If you are certain that you would prefer to self-host the bot, please follow any of the instructions on automuteus/deploy.

Developing

Similar Projects

  • Imposter: Similar bot that uses private Discord channels instead of mute/deafen. Also uses a dummy player joining the game and "spectating" to get game information; no capture needed (although loses the 10th player slot).

  • AmongUsBot: Without their original Python program with a lot of the OCR/Discord functionality, I never would have even thought of this idea! Not currently maintained

  • amongcord: A great program for tracking player status and auto mute/unmute in Among Us. Their project works like a traditional Discord bot; very easy installation!

  • Silence Among Us: Another bot quite similar to this one, which also uses AmongUsCapture. Now in early-access with a publicly-hosted instance!
