Discord Bot Status

[NerdsCorp]

A good idea would be to add Statuses to the discord bot, similar to the bot i have for mine-craft. Right now it shows offline and no status.

This shouldn't be too hard to do - I need some more details though - what do you want it to show as a status? How do you envision interacting with the status features? What is the data driving the changes, or what can we use the status for?

Realistically this is just there to route messages back and forth (mainly emergency situations) - and I don't use discord THAT much - so I'm curious to know how you'd use this feature.

Well right now it shows offline, I'd like it to say online when the program is running so people know it's online, also maybe just say something like Meshtastic Ai computing all your needs or something fun.

I'm basically using it to monitor a node when I'm away as well as the emergency statuses.

Maybe even in the status show if an emergency alert was triggered or not, and a way to clear it

The online tag makes sense - we could do an "emergency triggered in the last hour" or something - something time based would require the least user interaction... while maintaining the functionality you're talking about.

I'll put this on the todo list. =)
