Note: If the bot doesn't appear in your server, you may need to manually assign the permissions requested from the link above in your server roles.
EDPriceCheckBot lets users check current prices for a range of supported minerals. Additionally, it will notify the primary channel of a high LTD sell price (>1.4mil, >2000 demand) along with DMing any user that has signed up for alerts with !getalerts. High price stations are added to a timeout list that expires after 24 hours to prevent DM/Channel spam.
Upon adding the bot to your server, make sure to use the !setchannel command in the channel you want it to respond to commands in.
While using the !check x command where x is the mineral alias.
