Easier Discord user mention
Closed this issue · 2 comments
Not sure how feasible this would be, but it would be nicer if you didn’t have to type out the full Discord tag to mention a user.
For example: if the user I want to mention is John, it will match if I type only “Jo”
If there are users named John and Joseph, typing “Jo” will return an error message telling the command user to be more specific.
I just know TShock has this feature for most commands where you can just type a part of a full name and it will match it.
Mention auto-complete would be a neat feature. However, the ambiguous matches may be too inconclusive to be useful. There would be great potential for text channel, role, and user name collisions in larger servers.
I thought about this more while attempting to sleep and came to the conclusion that this would only aggravate the issue you raised about duplicate usernames. I also have an issue with presenting players with error messages for multiple scenarios. The relay should just relay and not complicate message routing by blocking player communication/forcing them to deal with more errors. As a result, I will close this issue out as wontfix.
