/mapvid

Request a video of the progress per day from a given game.

Requirements

  • Bot can send messages - to send the video.
  • Bot can embed links - so that when the bot sends the video's url, Discord loads it and you can watch from the app without downloading.
  • User can use application commands - so that the user is able to view and use the bot's commands.

What It Does

/mapvid generates a video of a map's daily (ingame) progress which is then stored in the website. There's a total of 3 subcommands (sup, cow, io) for Supremacy 1914, Call of War 1942 and Iron Order 1919, respectively. They are all the same. By default this command returns a video in which each ingame day equals a second. This command can NOT generate more than 1 image per ingame day since it grabs the data from the newspaper. The map generated is the same as the one generated by /mapinfo with the -countries parameter. There's also the option to set a day counter somewhere in the video and modify the video speed.

mapID Number ✔️ ID of the target map/game.
dayposition Position Optional Select the position in which to place a day counter in terms of (left, center, right) and (top, center, bottom).

Additional Notes

  • Make sure the bot has all permissions required.
  • If the maps fail to generate, check the original message to see what's going on.
  • The videos will be theoretically always available at the same URL. If deleted, request a video in the support server, since at the very least the most complete video available will be stored.
  • Any further questions can be answered in the Official Server.
