The steps should be basically identical for other panels, but screenshots will look visually different. The steps should be basically identical for other panels, but screenshots will look visually different.
If in doubt, contact your host's support.

## Creating a sub-user
This is **optional**, but highly recommended, for security reasons.
Navigate to your `Users` page, and click the `New User` button.
Type in an email address, and press `Select all permissions`.
*The bot doesn't need all of the permissions you just gave it to function, we'll deal with that in a moment.*

Now, you'll need to check the email you just entered into the subusers page, and create an account. I won't cover this, as it'll change depending on what host you're using.
Moving on, the bot doesn't need all of the permissions you just gave it. This poses a security risk, should the bot be compromised. We can fix this by importing only the permissions the bot requires. Import the following string into your subuser's permissions.
```json
["websocket.connect","control.read-console","control.console","control.start","control.stop","control.restart","startup.read","startup.update","settings.rename","settings.reinstall"]
```

## Getting an API Key
**Log out of your primary account, and switch to the sub-user you just created.**
Navigate to your sub-user account's `API Credentials` page.

Create a new API key.

You don't have to specify an allowed IP if you don't want to, but I recommend it. If you chose to, you'll need to retrieve your bot's IP address. You can do this through SSH or through a cog like [AAA3A's IP cog](https://github.com/AAA3A-AAA3A/AAA3A-cogs).
![image](/img/pterodactyl/setup/5.png)
Now, use the `[p]set api` command on your bot to add the API key.
The format is as follows:
```
# Service: pterodactyl
# Keys and Tokens: api_key ptlc_...
```

## Getting server information
There's some other information that the Pterodactyl cog needs to function.
First, get the base url for your panel. This does not include any extra information, like server ids, or whatnot. In my case, I'm using `https://mc.bloom.host/`.
![image](/img/pterodactyl/setup/7.png)
Use the `[p]pterodactyl config url` command to set the URL the cog will use.
In my case, I'd use `-pterodactyl config url https://mc.bloom.host/`.
![image](/img/pterodactyl/setup/8.png)
Now, we need to get the id of your server. Navigate to the `Settings` page in your panel.
![image](/img/pterodactyl/setup/9.png)
Use the `[p]pterodactyl config serverid` command to add the server id to the bot.
In my case, I'd use `-pterodactyl config serverid ad712016-df3d-47a5-b1df-6b71baf50340`.
![image](/img/pterodactyl/setup/10.png)
Once you've done all of this, you should see a connection message in the bot's logs. Now, we need to configure some other things.
## Configuring the cog
### Setting up a console channel
Create a channel, and make sure the bot has permissions to speak in it.
/// admonition | Only give access to the console channel to people you trust!
type: danger
If a user account has access to the console channel, they can execute ***any*** command on your server, including power actions.
They will also be able to see potentially sensitive information, such as player IPs.
///
Once you've created a channel, use `[p]pterodactyl config consolechannel #channel` to set the console channel.
Now, logs from your server should be posted in the channel you've configured.
Please note that, in order to avoid Discord ratelimits, logs will not be posted when the server status is one of the following:
- `starting`
- `stopping`
- `restarting`
This is to prevent the console channel from flooding and getting backed up by Discord's message ratelimits.
### Setting up a chat channel
Create another channel, and make sure the bot has permissions to speak in it and embed links.
Once you've created a channel, use `[p]pterodactyl config chat channel #channel` to set the console channel.
Now, chat messages, user joins, and advancements/challenges from your server should be posted in the channel you've configured.
### My chat messages aren't detected!
If you're not running on recent versions of Paper, which this cog was developed against, or you're otherwise changing for format of chat messages, you'll need to add custom regex through the `[p]pterodactyl config regex` command. Same thing applies if any other type of message isn't being detected. I recomend using ChatGPT or something similar for this, or if you need help, you can join my [Discord server](https://discord.gg/eMUMe77Yb8).
The default values for all of the configurable regex in the cog is as follows:
```re
chat messages: \[(\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2})\sINFO\]:\s<(\w+)>\s(.*),
server messages: ^\[\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2} INFO\]: \[Not Secure\] \[.*\] (.*),
join messages: ^\[\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2} INFO\]: ([^<\n]+) joined the game$,
leave messages: ^\[\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2} INFO\]: ([^<\n]+) left the game$,
achivement messages: ^\[\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2} INFO\]: (.*) has (made the advancement|completed the challenge) \[(.*)\]$,
```
### Changing the tellraw command
The cog uses a tellraw command to send messages to Minecraft from Discord. To change this, use the `[p]pterodactyl config chat command` command. The JSON format Minecraft uses for this is very janky sometimes, if you need help with changing the command, you can join my [Discord server](https://discord.gg/eMUMe77Yb8).
Required placeholders:
- `.%U` - replaced with display name
- `.%M` - replaced with message contents
- `.%C` - replaced with top role color (hex)
Default:
```json
tellraw @a ["",{"text":".$U ","color":".$C"},{"text":" (DISCORD): ","color":"blue"},{"text":".$M","color":"white"}]
```
