Describe your requested feature

As discussion from Discord and Sinbad's idea that this may be a good addition I am establishing an issue to keep track of this.

There should be a way to have a persistent [p]set game setting and also other settings that are impacted by this like watching and listening, streaming statuses.

An example of a setting could be [p]set persistentpresence or some similar option. This would allow when bot reboots to keep the same status if user toggled the setting. -->

Like, I'd like this as it allows me to specify the help command and prefix. With it in the api, I could see a cog extending this to display a live server/member counter.

An approved cog already exist (rndstatus)

Ryonez commented 4 years ago

I have enabled that after someone recommended it in discord.

Might I ask as to the state of the current status options in Red? It strikes as odd that they aren't at least persistent.

Ryonez commented 4 years ago

Btw, for those who are after a link, rndstatus can be found in aikaterna-cogs.

I also have that exact thing as described in the main post in my repo botstatus however it probably wouldn't hurt to have that available in core.

Jackenmen commented 3 years ago

There is some discussion about whether these settings should be persistent in the dev channel (AC) of the Red server. I'm leaving a link here to the relevant discussion so that whoever wants to tackle this feature in the future has some reference to ideas of implementation and/or possible issues. https://discord.com/channels/133049272517001216/718148684629540905/857705869192724480
