Big update on the community side: a real dashboard to configure the bot, scheduled convoys, shiny stats on your VTC pageโ€ฆ and the in-game Chat that finally works on the first try. ๐ŸŽ‰


๐Ÿ’ฌ VTC Chat in-game โ€” type right away

  • F9 (or your shortcut) โ†’ you type immediately : the cursor is already in the field, no need to click.
  • Important fix : on some configurations, input could be totally blocked in the software (a shortcut capture was stuck) โ†’ fixed.
  • ๐Ÿ’ก Play in Borderless / Windowed : the chat opens over the game which stays displayed โ€” you type without leaving the road.

๐Ÿค– New: Bot Config Dashboard

A dedicated space /dashboard/bot to configure everything without commands, with a live preview of each message:

  • ๐Ÿ”ข Member counters โ€” voice channels displaying "๐Ÿ‘ฅ Members: 123 / ๐ŸŸข Online: 45".
  • ๐ŸŸข Live convoy status โ€” an auto-updated message listing your members in-game (ETS2/ATS) : who's driving, with what cargo, heading where.
  • ๐Ÿšš Convoy planner /convoi โ€” create a convoy, buttons โœ… I'm in / ๐Ÿค” Maybe / โŒ Withdraw, automatic reminder before departure. Sign-ups are synced with the site.
  • ๐Ÿš› TruckersMP Relay โ€” your TMP VTC news / events / partners posted automatically in your channels.
  • ๐Ÿ“‹ Server logs โ€” full journal (join/leave, messages, roles, channels, sanctions with author, voice, VTCโ€ฆ).
  • ๐Ÿ‘‹ Welcome & goodbye, ๐Ÿ“ข custom embeds, ๐ŸŽญ reaction roles.
  • โœจ All bot messages now use Components V2 (modern Discord design).

๐ŸŒ On your VTC page (site)

  • ๐Ÿ† Driver of the Month โ€” automatically elected based on monthly activity (deliveries + km).
  • ๐ŸŽ–๏ธ VTC Records โ€” longest delivery, best paid, top speedโ€ฆ with their holder.
  • ๐Ÿ”— Embeddable "Live Convoy" widget โ€” paste an <iframe> on your own site to display your in-game members in real time (code ready in the VTC dashboard).

๐Ÿ“ In-game overlay โ€” convoy

  • Teammates nearby : instead of only the closest one, a mini-list (up to 3) with username + distance separating you from each.

๐Ÿ“ฑ New: Horizon Dispatch as an app

  • The site is now installable : on Android and iPhone, "Add to Home Screen" โ†’ the app opens in full screen, in real time. (Play Store version in preparation.)

๐Ÿ› Bug fixes & quality of life

  • /convoi and convoy status no longer crash when the VTC has an imported logo (URL fixed).
  • Reliability : each dashboard system starts as soon as registered (no need to restart anymore).
  • Various display fixes and clearer error messages.

๐Ÿ’ป To do

๐Ÿ”„ Reload / reinstall the software for the update (in-game Chat + convoy overlay).
๐ŸŒ VTC Admins : remember to update your server then restart the site and bot to activate the bot dashboard, convoys, counters and convoy status.
