Discord's default slow mode isn't long enough? This is a bot developed to allow increased length slow modes in channels.
This bot requires discord.js to run, along with nodejs. NodeJS can be installed from https://nodejs.org, and the latest Discord.JS can be installed with
npm install --save discord.js
To host this bot yourself, you will need to change a couple of things. After installing NodeJS and Discord.Js, create a config.json file in your working directory which looks like this:
{
"token":"BOT TOKEN HERE"
}
Paste your token into the config.json.
The time for slowmode is set in milliseconds with the timeoutTime = [TIME IN MS] variable. The length of time must be in milliseconds, so 2 minutes will be 120000 ms. You can also change the message send in the reported channel by changed the reportedMessage = "[MESSAGE]" variable. This will be preceeded by a user mention.
Next you must change the botID = "[ID]" variable to the ID of your bot user. Otherwise the bot will add itself to the list for slowmode. This will cause problems if you aren't using split channels.
This bot can be set up to watch a seperate channel to the one it reports into. E.G. The bot watches one channel, mentions users in another channnel if they break the slowmode.
In order to enable split channels, change the channelID = "[ID]"; and reportID = "[ID]"; variables to the channel IDs of the watch channel and the reporting channel.
If you would like the bot to reply in the same channel, set both variables the same.
If you would like to disable reporting, change the reporting = true variable to false.
The bot will be able to exclude certain roles from being affected by the slowmode, much like Discord's official slowmode. The modRoles = ["[ROLENAME]","[ROLENAME]"] list contains all roles that will be excluded. You can add as many roles as you like to the list as long as the names match a role name in the server.
