Various utility/random cogs for Red V3.

I enjoy working with API's and making cogs for game servers or other helpful use cases. Check out some of my projects below

Cog	Status	Description
ArkSave	✓	Plugin for the ArkTools/ArkShop cog adding a (Very Specific) feature, see extended summary for example. This cog adds just 1 feature to ArkTools/ArkShop, the ability for users to pay credits to append their XUID to a .txt file in the data packs folder. This can be used for hosts that wipe occasionally and want to "sell" data saves so that on wipe day they have the XUID's of everyone that wants their data saved. (Requires BOTH ArkTools and ArkShop cogs)
ArkShop	✓	Plugin for the ArkTools cog adding extensive automated shop features. This cog requires the ArkTools cog to function, it adds two types of shops: RCON and DATA shops. The rcon shop uses item blueprint strings to send items directly to the players inventory, while the data shop uses actual file transfer to move and rename pre-made data packs into the server's cluster folder. ArkShop has many other features to help making data packs easier and also includes shop leaderboards and player shop stat commands.
ArkTools	✓	Remotely manage/monitor your Crossplay or Steam Ark servers via RCON protocol and chat seamlessly between in-game and discord. This cog comes packed with utility features for overseeing your Ark: Survival Evolved server; Including a status channel, join/leave logs, auto-renaming blacklisted player names, admin command logging with tribe logs, player stat tracking with leaderboards, and a sizeable collection of API tools for crossplay servers hosted from a Gamertag. (This cog is for self-hosted Xbox/PC crossplay or steam servers only, will not work with Nitrado)
ATLA	❌	(IN CONCEPT, THIS COG DOES NOTHING AT THE MOMENT) Explore the world from Avatar: The Last Airbender and find/raise your own animals from the ATLA universe! This cog is still in the concept stage and is NOT intended to be downloaded yet.
DayZTools	beta	Remotely manage/monitor your Nitrado Day-Z server from Discord. Various logging/management features for Day Z: Player join/leave log, server reboots, Killfeed and server status channel with server info.
Fluent	✓	Set any channel as a two-way translator for fluent conversation. Set a channel and both languages, if a message is in language 1 it gets converted to language 2 and vice versa using googles free api.
HaloStats	beta	View your Halo Infinite stats. This cog uses selenium to webscrape the halotracker.com site and pull your player stats (MUST HAVE CHROME INSTALED ON BOT HOST SERVER).
Inspire	✓	Get inspirational messages. Super simple cog that replies to certain sad words with positive encouragements, and responds to the [p]inspire command with an inspirational quote using zenquotes.io API. Note: this cog was my very first project just to get the feel for Red so it's not very big and there aren't any plans of expanding it at the moment.
LevelUp	✓	Streamlined Discord Leveling System. A simple yet full-featured leveling system with prestige features, customizable backgrounds, toggleable embed/image profiles, and extensive voice tracking options.
MCTools	✓	Super simple status cog for Minecraft Bedrock servers. Displays a status embed showing server version and player count. Only for Bedrock dedicated servers since there is already one that supports Java.
Meow	✓	Meow Replaces the word "now" with "meow" in someone's latest message, if word doesnt exist in the most recent 2 messages, it sends a random cat unicode emoji. Yall have a good day meow.
NoBot	✓	Filter certain messages from other bots. (ONLY checks messages from other bots), Add a bot to be filtered and a key phrase to check for. When that bot sends a message containing that phrase the message will be auto-deleted.
SCTools	Beta	View detailed Star Citizen ship info. Right now there is only one command (scships) that displays detailed info for ships in SC, you can use "[p]scships shipname" to search for a specific ship.
XTools	✓	View your Xbox profile, friends, screenshots and game clips using simple commands and interactive menus. Various tools for Xbox using Microsoft's XSAPI. (You will need to register a Microsoft Azure application to use this cog. Type "[p]apiset help" after install for more info)
