First off welcome to the utopia jam! I hope we can all work together to make something great!
As part of the jam a discord server is setup and on the server we have a helpful bot friend, jam-bot.
The basic way to interact with jam-bot is to issue a command that starts with an exclamation point.
For example (and I encourage you to do the same) if you enter !help
in a channel where jam-bot is present jam-bot will
whisper the list of all of the commands and how to invoke them.
The most helpful thing jam-bot will likely be able to do for the jam is to help with team finding. Jam-bot has 4 commands setup specifically to aid in team finding and they are:
!ineedateam
- This command will setup jam-bot to list you as needing a team with whatever skills you list. For example:!ineedateam Unity, Pixeling, Level Design
will add your user name and the listed skills to jam-bots team finding list- To change the listing of what jam-bot has for you just reissue the command with the skills you want listed:
!ineedateam GameMaker, Pixeling, Level Design
will change your skills to only the ones you list (now Unity isn't listed and GameMaker is)
- To remove yourself entirely from the needing a team list just issue the command
!ineedateam
by itself and jam-bot will remove your listing
!whoneedsateam
- This command will list everyone who needs a team and their listed skills, so from the above example!whoneedsateam
will return:-
landonscribbles-2649: GameMaker, Pixeling, Level Design```
-
!myteamneeds
- Works much like the!ineedateam
command but for finding specific skills for your team. For example:!myteamneeds composer, 3D modeler
Will add those as your team needs- To remove your team from the the
!myteamneeds
list just issue the command by itself:!myteamneeds
!whatteamsneed
- This command will list all teams who need specific roles or skills. From the above example!whatteamsneed
will return:-
landonscribbles-2649: composer, 3D modeler```
-
If you ever get confused about a command feel free to use !help
, ask me on twitter @landonscribbles, or send me a message in discord (I'm landonscribbles there too!)
Happy jamming!
