Problems after having 2 shards

let server = client.guilds.cache.get('server_id')
let category = server.channels.cache.find(c => c.id === 'category_id' && c.type == Discord.ChannelType.GuildCategory);

let server = client.guilds.cache.get('server_id')
let category = server.channels.cache.find(c => c.id === 'category_id' && c.type == Discord.ChannelType.GuildCategory);

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'channels') My bot now uses two shards, so it's also running the ready event twice. What's a fix for this?

What is this code supposed to be doing? Guilds only exist on a single shard, that's the point

It's supposed to get a channel from a server the bot is in

monbrey•3y ago

Well that server is only going to be on one of the shards

Iced QueenOP•3y ago

So what am I supposed to do instead?

monbrey•3y ago

You haven't explained why it needs to do this

Iced QueenOP•3y ago

To update the channel (category)'s name

monbrey•3y ago

And your bot needs to do this every time it starts?

Iced QueenOP•3y ago

It does it every 10 minutes approx

monbrey•3y ago

Yikes Well anyway, I'd just check if server is defined That way it'll only be running on the shard it's meant to Stuff like this is going to continue to cause problems as you scale the bot up though

Then I probably shouldn't do that? 😅
