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

Use this checklist before inviting the bot. It explains what you need, where to find it, and the first safe checks after setup for DayZ PC, Xbox, and PlayStation servers.

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. Create one Nitrado API token
-------------------------------
Create or copy a Nitrado API token from your Nitrado account/API settings. Paste it only into the private /setup window. Wandering Bot securely lists the DayZ services available to that token so you can choose the correct server without hunting for its service ID.

4. Keep FTP as an optional fallback
-----------------------------------
Most setup and protected server tools now work through the Nitrado API token. If Nitrado temporarily blocks an API file operation, you can add the FTP host, username, and password for that same DayZ service from the private fallback button or owner dashboard. 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 Nitrado API tokens, FTP details, dashboard passwords, or account passwords in Discord. Use the private /setup flow and owner dashboard only.
