Using the exaroton Discord bot

The exaroton Discord bot enables you to display your live game server status on your Discord server and to allow your players to start your server whenever they want.

Quick-start

Step 3: Adding your game server to your Discord server

Use the command /link <server> to link your server to your Discord server.

Example

/link example.exaroton.me

Step 4: Create an embed for your game server

Use the command /embed <server> to create an embed for your game server.

Example

/embed example.exaroton.me

Embeds always show the current status of your server. Buttons in the embed message can be used to start, stop, or restart the server.

We recommend creating a separate channel for your server information and embed, in which regular Discord server members are not allowed to send messages. This way, your embed always remains visible and can easily be found by your players.

Step 5: Allow other people to start your server

To use your server embed or commands to control your server, other people need your permission.

You can use the command /server-permissions add <server> <role> <permission> to give certain roles permission to control your server.

Example

/server-permissions add example.exaroton.me @everyone start

You can also allow people to stop, restart or embed your server, or execute in-game commands.

Unlinking servers

You can unlink game servers from your Discord server using the command /unlink <server>.

Example

/unlink example.exaroton.me

A game server is also unlinked automatically if the person who linked it leaves the Discord server or unlinks their Discord account from their exaroton account.

More commands

The exaroton bot offers some other, more advanced features. To get a full list of all available commands, use /help. You can also show more information about a specific command using /help <command>.
