Well,

connection.receiver.speaking.users

connection.receiver.speaking.users

connection.receiver.speaking.users

connection.receiver.speaking.users returns the currently speaking users, mapped to the milliseconds since UNIX epoch at which they started speaking.

Cchewie Well, `connection.receiver.speaking.users` returns the currently speaking users,...

𝓟𝓸𝓵𝓲𝓼𝓱𝓚𝓮𝓫𝓪𝓫 | a.k.a KebabOP•2/15/23, 4:58 PM

Cchewie Well, `connection.receiver.speaking.users` returns the currently speaking users,...

C

chewie•2/15/23, 4:59 PM

�

𝓟𝓸𝓵𝓲𝓼𝓱𝓚𝓮𝓫𝓪𝓫 | a.k.a KebabOP•2/15/23, 4:59 PM

C

chewie•2/15/23, 4:59 PM

the bot needs to be in the channel to receive voice data

�

𝓟𝓸𝓵𝓲𝓼𝓱𝓚𝓮𝓫𝓪𝓫 | a.k.a KebabOP•2/15/23, 4:59 PM

�

𝓟𝓸𝓵𝓲𝓼𝓱𝓚𝓮𝓫𝓪𝓫 | a.k.a KebabOP•2/15/23, 5:01 PM

basically i have a economy bot, and want to make it so you get money for talking in vc's, but i want to prevent people from just joining vc, muted and just there to farm money

chewie•2/15/23, 5:01 PM

why are you trying to implement a feature that discord already has?
