question

[JacProsser]

just wondering if you could point me to where the code for "pause_on_empty" is located? I'm currently trying to do this in my bot and it isn't working well

Hey, I'm sorry but I believe I haven't mentioned that the option is not really implemented yet. I don't know why I thought it was a good idea to put the options before really implementing them.

In any case, the code is in app.js, if you import pauseOnEmpty from settings.js and put

if (!pauseOnEmpty) return;

inside the first lines of code for the voicrStateUpdate handler, you shouls be able to achieve this.

Additionally, I'm gonna rework on this soon if you'd prefer to wait.

I have implemented into my own discord boot using my head now so don't worry. thank you anyway!

[JacProsser]

also you should look into erela.js or something as it is a good package

Alright no problem, and I will check it out, however I'm a but skeptical about using Lavalink since its true power comes from having multiple nodes where the music can be fetched from which isn't free. Thank you anyways for the recommendation though!

If you decide to look into it click here to access the details of a free to use lavalink server. This is what i personally use and it is pretty good. And if you was thinking this was for your bot then this is my voiceStateUpdate for my personal bot

if (newState.guild.voice.channel.members.size <= 1 && config["music"].pauseOnEmpty && config["music"]["24/7"]) {
        const player = eulogistdev.manager.players.get(newState.guild.id)
        const channel = eulogistdev.channels.cache.get(player.textChannel);
        let pausedEmpty = new MessageEmbed()
            .setAuthor(`Music has been paused | 24/7 Activated: ${config["music"]["24/7"]} | To resume the music please join the VC.`, config["Embed_Defaults"].IconURL)
            .setColor(`${config["Embed_Defaults"].EmbedColour}`)
        player.pause(true);
        channel.send(pausedEmpty)

    } else if (newState.guild.voice.channel.members.size <= 1 && !config["music"].pauseOnEmpty && !config["music"]["24/7"]) {
        const player = eulogistdev.manager.players.get(newState.guild.id)
        const channel = eulogistdev.channels.cache.get(player.textChannel);
        let pausedEmpty = new MessageEmbed()
            .setAuthor(`Music has been paused. 24/7 Activated: ${config["music"]["24/7"]} | i will leave in 1 minute.`, config["Embed_Defaults"].IconURL)
            .setColor(`${config["Embed_Defaults"].EmbedColour}`)
        channel.send(pausedEmpty)
        setTimeout(() => {

            player.destroy()
        }, parseInt(config["music"].leaveDelay))
