1 year ago Hey Xeizzeth,
Yeah if you put together a PR that can create a poll from the mod then I'd be happy to merge it. Main things I'd be thinking about are
- How do they get triggered, is it in the mod config window or on an automatic timer
- How do you configure things like poll length in the mod, is it a defined number or can streamers change it and where is that config stored
- How do you balance what is being put up for vote. The polls are based on what the trigger is (is it a toxic fallout or is it a bed) and how many of them (5 beds or 1000 chickens?!). These are vastly different in value and affect on a colony
It sounds like you've already had a peak at our API requests, but seeing as the server code isn't open source I'll lay out what you need.
- You'll want to be sending requests to the
/poll/createendpoint (connection and base url should already be defined in the mod) - The body of the request needs an
expirykey which is the datetime of when it will expire (It shouldn't be like this, but alas) - the body also needs a key
voteOptionswhich is an array of objects in the shape {validCommand: ObjectId, amount: number}
If you want to work with me to answer those questions then I'd be happy for you craft a PR.

I bet it was asked a godzillion times but still.
Even tried to implement one myself via tampermonkey, but I guess it would be wiser to implement one via pull req to this repo.
Therefore I ask - how are things in that regard currently? Maybe devs already implementing them? If not, if I implement such a feature, will the pull request be applied?
