Editcom as alias

[beccapeaa]

Hello,

I usually make a command to fetch a clip api as follows

command: !clipdeath

message: !lastdeath clip api

alias: !editcom

this then edits the !lastdeath command with the fetched clip.

since the nightbot update, it will not let me add !editcom as an alias. is there a way around this please?

thank you

You can’t use !editcom because it isn’t a real command. You’d need to use !commands as the alias and set the edit sub command in the response.

Alias: !commands
Response: edit !lastdeath clip api

ok fab thank you! the ones i had previously set up seem to still work the old way which is why i was confused. thanks again

I am also trying to set up this command right now, so this comes at just the right time.
To summarize, do I understand correctly:

New command: !adddeath or !clipdeath
Response: edit !lastdeath clip API
Alias: !commands

Please correct me if I misunderstood anything.

However, what should the response and alias for the !lastdeath command look like?

I would really appreciate your help with this!

!lastdeath should not be configured with an alias, and the response doesn’t matter as it is being overwritten by !adddeath
