2 requests in one ask: Multiple servers support. Multiple command characters support.

[DrToxic]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Multiple Servers Support I run bots on my discord. a friend of mine would like to use his bot on both mine and his servers, partly so I can watch and debug.

Multiple Command Characters Support It'd be pretty dope to see all bots respond at the same time to trivial commands, like !Status, however it would be irritating to, for example, start all printers printing the same file.

So have each printer reacting to it's own command character (like it is now), but also assign a second character for trivial commands, such as /Status.

Describe alternatives you've considered Running multiple plugin instances, setting up multiple bots per printer.

Additional context

Would being able to DM commands to the bots be sufficient? Its probably the easiest solution that doesnt involve a very convoluted configuration?

I'll look into the ability to DM the bots.

Multiple server support was being worked on, but the person who was looking at it gave up. I can try revive their effort, but realistically, I dont have much time to spend on this project, so its unlikely to be completed.

See v3.11, allows DM'ing the bot directly. With that, you can have your bots on the same channel, and send commands to all bots, or use DM for individual commands. I will think about the multiple channels thing, but I cant promise any kind of prompt fix for that

That could work nicely. My only thought is, I have 3 printers and want to keep tabs on them all.

I'd like to extend a great thank you for developing a great, seriously useful plugin.

Amazing stuff.

I will take a look at the source and see if I can't work anything out. I just happen to be busy as heck at the moment. :(

I had made an attempt at making it work for multiple channels, but it requires a bit of an overhaul to only send some responses to one channel (otherwise there are out of context responses in other channels), or to show who ran what command where in the response. I also no longer needed to have it run in multiple channels, though I could try and continue working on this feature if people want it.

Would it be possible to have the command responses go to the person that DM'd it or would that require adding extra channel IDs? I DM'd my bot the snapshot command and it posted an image to the main channel it's present in

[cameroncros]

That shouldn't be too hard to do, and if you want to make that change I will definitely merge it in.

Ideally would want to keep the existing "send to main channel" behaviour though as someone may already be using that feature.
