WANDERING BOT SETUP GUIDE
==========================

Connect Wandering Bot to Discord and your DayZ server, check the first ADM feeds, then open your dashboard. Console and PC hosts use different connection methods; the six steps below explain both.

1. Check Discord access first
-----------------------------
You need to be the Discord server owner or an administrator. Invite Wandering Bot to that server and approve its requested permissions. For role features, place the Wandering Bot role above every role it must add or remove. Do not give its dashboard password to normal members.

2. Invite the bot and run /setup
--------------------------------
Use the Add Wandering Bot button, select the correct Discord server, then run /setup in Discord. Choose the DayZ platform and map, then enter the server details only for that DayZ profile. The bot returns the dashboard ID and a one-time password privately to the administrator who completes setup.

3. Choose the host connection
-----------------------------
Choose your platform and provider in /setup first. Use a private provider token where supported, or add PC BattlEye RCon for live controls and bans, host file access for ADM/RPT feeds, or both. Confirm the final review; entering a modal alone does not save the connection.

4. Add server files for ADM feeds
---------------------------------
A PC RCon connection gives live control, not ADM/RPT logs or mission files. Add the FTP, FTPS or SFTP details shown by your host's panel if you want killfeeds, file scans or protected uploads. Providers use different file roots and API paths, so check the selected profile and active mission rather than copying another host's path. Never paste credentials in public channels.

5. Start with the safe checks
-----------------------------
After setup, run /admstatus to confirm the bot can see ADM activity. Once an ADM log exists, run /restartadm force once to begin the first scan. Confirm a connection or killfeed event arrives before changing advanced features such as events, XML tools, vehicle resets, or economy settings.

6. Open the dashboard
---------------------
Use the private dashboard ID and one-time password from /setup to log in. Start with server profile, feed routes, and dashboard access. Set up trusted staff accounts only after the owner login is working. Cherno, Livonia, Sakhal, and separate customer servers should always use their own profile and credentials.

Quick safety reminder
---------------------
Never post provider API tokens, FTP details, dashboard passwords, or account passwords in Discord. Use the private /setup flow and owner dashboard only.
