Prefix and slash commands share the same game rules. Lobby codes look like MM-7F2A. One person cannot take two seats in a lobby. !help and /help show Murder Mystery Bot v2.0.0 plus the command catalog. In-game role lists are also available with !wiki and /wiki. Create and join are rate limited. Game slash commands do not run in DMs. A whisper is a DM, not a server channel. The shop is nighttime only, in a DM or by slash command.

​
Lobby

!create shows the code plus Join & Play, Spectate instead, and Allow DMs from this bot. Joining also sends a DM. If that DM is blocked, the status channel mentions the player and shows the same button. If only one lobby is open, !spectate can omit the code. Discord administrators join with -overwriteAdminWarning, for example !join MM-7F2A -overwriteAdminWarning. !forceStart also answers to !ownerstart and !fs.

​
During a game

Voting is daytime only. !balance also answers to !money, !gold, and !bal.

​
Progress

Changing the prefix is covered on server settings.

​
Admin

These need the matching admin permission, or Discord administrator.
  • !setup or /setup configures the server. It does not create channels.
  • !settings or /settings, and !settingspanel or /settingspanel, change timers, the prefix, disabled commands, and live lobbies. See server settings.
  • !cleanup ends every lobby. Aliases: !endGames, !stopGames, !endAllGames, !stopAllGames. Slash: /cleanup.
  • !endGame <code> ends one lobby. Alias: !stopGame. Slash: /end-game.
  • !kick @member or /kick removes a player.
  • !giveGold <player> <amount> or /give-gold adds gold during a game. Permission: admin.game.giveGold.
  • !resetState or /reset-state ends games and clears this server’s in-memory lobbies. Permission: admin.resetState.
  • !status or /status shows bot health. Needs admin.*, or Discord administrator.
  • !addPermission, !removePermission, and !permissions edit the permission tree.
There is no !purge command and no voice-channel setting.

​
Permissions

Permissions are a tree. A stored admin.* grant allows every admin command. Discord administrators bypass the tree. Grants can be given to a member or a role. Removing a permission from a member blocks that permission even when the server default would have allowed it.
Only people who already have the matching admin permission can grant, revoke, reset a server, force-start or end games, or change configuration.

​
Debug

Debug commands can break a running game. They need the listed permission.
  • !createGame True creates a short debug lobby. Permission: debug.createGame.
  • !skipVotes <code> and /skip-votes. Permission: debug.game.skipVotes.
  • !skipNight <code> and /skip-night. Permission: debug.game.skipNight.
  • !setWeather <code> <0-99> and /set-weather. Permission: debug.game.setWeather.
  • !setMoon <code> <1-5> and /set-moon. Permission: debug.game.setMoon.
  • !giveObjective, !addObjectiveProgress, !completeCurrentObjective, and !skipObjectiveTimer edit objectives. These stay prefix-only.
