Version 3.7.0 (Overhaul)

[JaWarrior12]

Version 3.7.0 will be major, and will take time. I do not expect to have this update ready until late January. I will be releasing this update in parts, as to avoid holding on to changes.

Each Part's Plans & Changes Will Be In A Separate Comment Below.

Currently Working On: 3.7.0d

Mini Releases:

• [x] v3.7.0a
• [x] v3.7.0b
• [x] v3.7.0c
• [x] v3.7.0d
• [ ] v3.7.0e

[JaWarrior12]

Global Fixes:

• Fixed Add New Light User Role Automatically To Server Owner After Adding Bot. When you add NL, as long as the server owner is in the development server, the user role is added automatically!
• Changed the KeyError message on all distribution commands to provide actual error data.

Version 3.7.0 Part A (v3.7.0a)

For the first part of the v3.7.0 update, I will be reworking the distribution system to allow every item to be added, I will be adding a reference list of items and the names they go by in NL’s system. I will NOT be replicating HL’s system, as that has every clan connected. I will also be fixing minor bugs in the distribution log verification system, as I’m not entirely happy with it. The last part of v3.7.0a will be shutting off the QuickPing system; it has no traffic and local hosting has broken the webpage temporarily. If there is a need I will turn it back on.

Plans:

• [x] Disable QuickPing System (Possibly Permanant, No Usage)
• [x] Fix Withdrawal Logging For Distribution Verification
• [x] All Items Capability For Distribution Balances
• [x] List Of What Names Items Go By In New Light's System

Version 3.7.0 Part B (v3.7.0b)

This will include a rework of the ship design system, mainly clearing it out and adding a few checks, but not much as this is an obsolete system. The other part of v3.7.0b will be QOL changes, I need to update the wiki and help text. Finally, v3.7.0b will start the removal of shitcode & deprecated code from NL.

Plans:

• [x] Ship Design System Disablement
• [x] Balance Change Log
• [x] Exchange Rates!
• [x] n!deleteitem command
• [x] Wiki Updated
• [x] Help Text Updated & Made Clearer

Version 3.7.0 Part C (v3.7.0c)

Version 3.7.0c will be a major task list, I have a laundry list of minor and major changes/fixes/additions that I plan to complete. I expect to publish this release by Christmas (12/25/23). Distribution is probably getting the most change along with some QOL things.

Note To Self (NTS): All Items After 9/30/23 Are Going In v3.7.0d

Plans:

• [x] Rework Member List
• [x] Add Dev Override To Authorization Checks
• [x] Fix Exchange Rates Task (Start Task In init)
• [x] Prevent Users From Running Commands With Invalid Data (Ex: Ping or Name where an ID is required)
• [x] Add command to see current server config settings
• [x] Add command to add non-user balance to distribution (Ex, Core Storage, alternate clan storage, clan ships)
• [x] Merge ^ Into Already Existing Commands (So There Aren't Separate Member/Non-User Commands) (NTS: See Here For commands.MemberConverter().convert(Id/Mention/Name/Nickname))
• [x] Delete Old Replit Files & Unneeded Files!!!!! High Priority
• [x] Fix DBC Log Pointing At The Dictionary Instead Of Creating A Temporary Copy (NTS: Use dictName.copy() instead of just pointing at the dictionary for Previous Balance)

Bug Fixes

• Fixed no response messages in the following commands: setupserver, addrel, rel

Added

• Added delrel command, deletes a clan from relations by searching for clan emoji, clan abbreviation, or full clan name.

Changed

• Changed the Member List display role to the highest role a user has.
• Now All Distribution Commands That Modify Balances (This Includes Add/Remove Member) Log The Change
• Distribution Balance Change Logs Now Include The Previous (Before Change) and Post (After Change) Balance
• authuser & deauthuser now take @user instead of User_Id

Pushed Back

• Update Relations: Allow Changing of clan tag, full_name, emoji, and abbreviation.
• Auto Update Member Balances When The Default Balance Is Changed. A list containing the removed items & amounts (from each member affected) will be sent to the log channel in the Dev Server
• Redo Design System: Designs are Default GLOBAL with the option of server specific
• Re-Implement QuickPing: Polls Will be On Discord Server Concerning Changes
• System To Purchase/Rent Ships; Integrated With Distro Balances (Suggested By Rey)(Waiting On Poll)

Version 3.7.0 Part D (v3.7.0d)

Version 3.7.0d is mainly pushed-back items from v3.7.0c, along with optimizations and clearing excess code to help with storage.

Planned Release Date: June 2024

Plans:

• [x] Add an item transfer command so you can send items from your balance to someone else's balance
• [x] Add a command to force clear the distribution verification log

• [x] Rewrite formItem & formatClanBal functions to run off a dictionary instead of the current mess.
• [x] Remove depreciated constants
• [x] Delete Downtime/Uptime Logging
• [x] #66
• [x] List Distro Log balance updates in the log channel

Bug Fixes

• Fixed balance command not accepting Non-User input (Forgot to remove a print(member.id) statement, Non-User inputs don't have IDs)

Added

• 75

Changed

• joindate & scanguilds commands now use self.bot.user.id
• fakeTagDBScanner is now a daily task, running at 1am UTC
• Configured all tasks to check bot ID before starting/canceling the task; now I don't have to fix IDs every time I merge the main & development branches.

Pushed Back

• Merges Checks Into A Single File, Combine Dev/Banned If statement Into a check that can be called from a singular file.
• Focusing on some bug fixes & QOL so this won't make the cut for v3.7.0d; I'll get this done in v3.7.0e
• Reformat command logging to allow for usage in Metrics (Need to figure out what I actually want to track)
• Allow servers to have their own balance update log channels, while still having a master log in the dev server
• Make NL more user-friendly (Poll server for community opinions)
• Maybe Change/Lower some of the server owner restrictions? (Poll Server)
• Update Relations: Allow Changing of clan tag, full_name, emoji, and abbreviation.
• Add a task to auto-update ban list, right now bots don't sync bans. Also sync bans with NLD Manager

Scrapped

• Signup with This Non-profit Web Host to try and get quick ping back online as well as have a website for future uses. (Free signups are 8:00 AM & PM daily!!) and maybe Here for a domain. Meh, prob not gonna happen

Notices

• Distribution Verification has been disabled. It is failing too much to allow for public usage. Regular logging is now default and cannot be changed at this time.
