Custom Command

Discord Rate Limits

Rate Limits prevents misleading usage or abuse of the API. Our Bot receives a lot of requests, that's why we have decided to use our own cooldown system.

Function Cooldown

Many functions have a cooldown — time until next execution is possible for the same data input/user/place (e.g. channel or guild).

The Bot acts differently if a called function is on cooldown:

  • waits for cooldown to pass, then execute
  • sends an error message
  • cancels the execution without warning.

TIP

You can see the cooldown (if any) of a function by using the command !!func function name.

Function Limit

The same function with cooldown can only be called 5 times in the code.
If the function limit is reached, the bot cancels the execution of the function without warning.

Execution Limits

The Bot supports up to 5 parallel executions of the same custom command.

Execution Cooldown

The same custom command can only be triggered once in 5 seconds.
