Send to a chat channel
Send a line to everyone in a channel who is online and has not ignored the sender. The sender has to be in it.

In a flow
“When a player uses a command → Send to a chat channel: trade, Anyone selling iron?”
When a player uses a command → Send to a chat channel: trade, Anyone selling iron?
What it does
Send a line to everyone in a channel who is online and has not ignored the sender. The sender has to be in it. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 1 value later steps can use. Find it under Chat & text in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when the flow needs to: send a line to everyone in a channel who is online and has not ignored the sender. The sender has to be in it.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
