Setup panel
Every server has its own settings. You change them with the /setup command, not in a file.
Open the panel
Run /setup in any channel. Only members with the Manage Server permission can use it. The panel is private: only you see it, in your Discord language. It has four pages, which you switch with the menu at the top.
Every change is saved immediately. If you set a log channel, it shows who changed what.
When you pick a channel, the bot checks that it can post there and refuses the channel with a message if it cannot. The old value stays. Clear the selection to turn a feature off again.
General
| Setting | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Language | English | The language of all public bot messages (English or German). Private replies use the language of the person who clicks. |
| Log channel | off | Where the bot writes its server log. |
The page also shows whether the Among Us plugin is connected right now.
On the hosted bot, this page also holds the plugin secret: you create it once and can generate a new one later. See hosted setup.
Links
| Setting | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Link overview channel | off | A message that lists every linked player and updates itself. See Link overview. |
| Show pending links | off | Also list members who started /link self and are still waiting. |
| Relink returning players | on | Keeps links working when a player renames their Among Us account. See Automatic relink. |
Voice
| Setting | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Living players during tasks | Muted | What happens to players who are alive while a round runs: Free, Muted or Deafened. |
| Dead players during tasks | Muted | The same for dead players during a round. |
| Living players in meetings | Free | The same for living players in a meeting. |
| Dead players in meetings | Muted | The same for dead players in a meeting. |
| Ghost chat | off | Dead players talk during tasks while the living are deafened. Read the warning first. |
| Voice members who are not in the game | Leave alone | Members in the voice channel without a linked player: Leave alone, Mute, or Treat as dead. |
| Fallback voice channels | none | Hosted bot only. Channels the bot mutes when it cannot tell which channel the host is in. |
| Delays | 0 s each | Waits before a change is applied: game start, meeting start, meeting end, back to the lobby. Each value is 0 to 5 seconds. You can type 1.5 or 1,5. |
In the lobby, everybody is unmuted and undeafened.
Game

Bot permissions
Give the bot these permissions. Without them the matching feature silently does nothing, or reports the problem in the log channel.
| Permission | Needed for |
|---|---|
| Mute Members | Muting players. |
| Deafen Members | Deafening players (the Deafened rule and ghost chat). |
| Manage Nicknames | Nickname sync. |
| View Channel | Every channel you pick in the panel. |
| Send Messages | Every channel you pick in the panel: log, overview, status and summary. |
| Manage Messages | The link overview and status channels. The panel refuses these two channels when the bot does not have it. |
