Hello, I'm streaming on YouTube.
When I have a stream scheduled for down the road, but I do an impromptu stream, nightbot keeps connecting to the scheduled stream any time I refresh the page.
The only way I've found to keep it connected to the current stream, is to unlist the scheduled stream. However, unlisting the scheduled stream seems to have an adverse effect on viewers for that stream.

Is there a different way to push nightbot to focus on the current stream?

Nightbot does not choose which stream chats it connects to, since YouTube actually decides that for us. While it may be connecting to your future stream chats, it should connect to all eligible stream chats (not just that one).

If it isn't connecting to the one that is live, please provide us with more information and we can reach out to YouTube's developer support to try and get it resolved.
