Discord Bot won't start

Code Help - Discord

Just up until now my bot was working fine, but it suddenly stopped to start (everything loads up as it should, but the ready event is never called) and I don’t really know what to do now…
Yes, I do login the bot with the correct token, I just checked. And no, when I do the “Discord Ban mega-thread the second! (Discord bot / Something took too long to do)” I see no HTTP 429

Edit: It works again. I changed nothing what so ever, I didn’t touch the code.

can i see your code? @rphii

Sure, via github? I know that it is possible, I just have to figure out how (I’ve never worked with it)

4

Can you share any errors in the logs?

5

okay

but are there any errors? @rphii

6

I see no errors in my log

everything loads up as it should

7

What do you expect and what is happening?

Have you tried locally?

8

check what i sent you @rphii

I expect to see that in my console I see something like “ready” and in discord that the bot is “playing” and online
bot.once(‘ready’, async () => {
console.log(${bot.user.username} is online);
bot.user.setActivity(${config.prefix}h, {type: “PLAYING”});
})

How do I try locally? If you mean not running it on a server, then I’m already doing that, because my PC is my host x)

Are you hosting this on your PC?

11

I don’t see anything wrong with that code…

Yes I do, and just as I said: It JUST worked (well… now like an hour ago but still)

i think your using an old verison on discord.js

I personally use this to set activity:

client.on("message", (message) => {
  client.user.setActivity(`Use --help. I am in ${client.guilds.cache.size} servers!`,{
                          type: "PLAYING",
                          url: "https://riverside.rocks"
  })

This updates the online status everytime a message is sent.

Shouldn’t it be bot.on instead of bot.once? :thinking:

That would probably be it.
