BotGG 1.5.1: Mafia, Pixel Canvas, Linked Roles and 9 more new features

Twelve new features in this release. As before, every new server feature is off until you enable it in the console, its slash commands only appear on servers that use it, and all of them work in Flows as triggers and actions.

BotGG on your account

• User-install. Add BotGG to your own Discord account, not only to a server. /botgg, /ping and /profile view then work in DMs, group DMs and servers that don't have BotGG. /profile view shows only your own profile card from any of your BotGG servers, privately, and you can switch between servers or press Share here to post it in the chat. Server admins decide whether their members may share their card outside the server (Profiles → Settings, on by default). Nothing new is stored. Profiles
• Linked Roles. Discord's own role requirements, powered by BotGG: give a role only to members with Level ≥ 10, enough coins, enough reputation, a number of days in the server or the verified role. Members connect BotGG to their Discord account once, Discord checks the requirement and grants or removes the role itself. Values come from one source server per member, which they can switch. /linkedroles Learn more

Games and events

• Mafia. The classic social deduction game, run by the bot: a lobby with a Join button, secret roles by DM (mafia, doctor, detective, villagers), night actions, day discussion and a public vote, a private mafia thread, spectators, stats and a leaderboard, and optional Bank coins for playing and winning. A restart never breaks a running game. /mafia · Free 10 / Pro 20 players per game. Learn more
• Pixel Canvas. An r/place for your server: members place one pixel at a time with /canvas place, explore the zoomable image and watch a live panel in the channel. Staff choose the size, palette, cooldown and opening times, roll back a member or an area, and ban painters. When the canvas ends, the bot posts the final image, a GIF timelapse and the top 10 painters. /canvas · Free 1 / Pro 3 canvases, up to 100 / 256 pixels per side. Learn more
• Lottery. Scheduled draws where members buy tickets with your server's virtual coins. Choose the ticket price, a cap per member, how many winners and how the pot is split; part of the sales can be burned to keep your economy healthy, and an unwon pot can roll over. Coins have no cash value, and Lottery is blocked in servers that sell coins for real money. /lottery Learn more
• AMA / Q&A Board. Live Q&A for events: members ask questions, upvote the best ones and the host answers them in vote order on a live board. Optional anonymous questions (the asker is never shown, not even in the console), a link to your Open Mic stage and a CSV export. /ama · Free 1 / Pro 5 live sessions, 200 / 1,000 questions each. Learn more

Community

• Member Spotlight. A member of the week, fortnight or month: the bot scores members on XP, messages, voice time and reputation, staff or members vote among the candidates (or the top score wins), and the winner gets a card, a role for a set number of days, coins and a Server Museum entry. /spotlight Learn more
• Bookmarks. Members save messages privately with the Bookmark message menu or a 🔖 reaction (which the bot can remove again so nobody sees who saved what), get a DM copy and find them again with /bookmarks. /bookmarks · Free 50 / Pro 500 bookmarks per member. Learn more
• Server Guide. A "start here" channel directory that keeps itself up to date: every public channel with an emoji and a description (or its topic), grouped by category, with optional link buttons. New, renamed or deleted channels update the guide by themselves. /guide Learn more

Staff and economy tools

• Economy Health. See your economy at a glance: money supply over time, coins created and removed per feature, inflation, wealth concentration and how fast coins change hands. Warnings such as "too few ways to spend coins" come with concrete recommendations and can alert your staff channel. Read-only, it never changes a balance. /econhealth · Free 30 / Pro 365 days of history. Learn more
• Staff Activity Report. A monthly report per moderator: cases by type, tickets closed with average first reply and satisfaction score, modmail, appeals decided, bans overturned and duty hours. Sent by DM to the owner and people you choose, optionally to a staff channel, and live in the console. No new tracking: it reads what your server already stores. /staffreport · Free 3 / Pro 10 recipients. Learn more
• Season Reset. Start a new season in one click: preview the result first, save the top members of each leaderboard to a hall of fame, then reset levels, coins, reputation, mini-game scores or quest points, now or at a date. Purchases and transaction history are never deleted, and a reset needs the Console Team danger permission and a typed confirmation. /halloffame · Free 10 / Pro 25 places per board. Learn more

Improvements

• Website: the Features menu now uses the full width of the screen, so long categories no longer run past the bottom.

Fixes

• Adding BotGG with Discord's "Add App" button now asks for the same permissions as our invite link, so timeouts, webhooks and invite links also work on servers added that way.
• Console: icons on the server template pages were shown far too big. Fixed.
