@BLoushi52 there are so many developers that have already done this. Is there a certain way you want it setup? Also do you want to host it yourself or someone else to? Use as much detail as you can please. This will help us determine which bot to recommend to you or if we need to make a new one.

I thought more about this and I think simply adding PalDefender commands to a Discord bot would be useful, but there could be a much more interesting MVP:

PalDefender Discord Incident System

Instead of Discord only being another place to execute commands, PalDefender could send real-time anti-cheat events to Discord.

When PalDefender detects something suspicious, it automatically creates an interactive Discord incident.

Example:

🚨 PalDefender Detection

Player: PlayerName
UserID: steam_xxxxxxxxx
Guild: Example Guild
Detection: Illegal Damage / Teleport / Invalid Item / etc.
Location: 123, -456
Time: 16:42

Then below the message:

[ Player Info ] [ Warn ] [ Kick ] [ Ban ] [ Ignore ]

An admin could deal with the incident directly from Discord without entering the game or manually copying UserIDs.

MVP

I think the first version could actually stay very small:

1. Add an outgoing event/webhook system to PalDefender.

For example PalDefender could POST JSON when something happens:

cheat_detected

player_kicked

player_banned

Possibly later:

player_joined

player_left

2. A small Discord bot receives the event and creates an embed.
3. The bot uses the existing PalDefender REST API when the admin presses buttons like:

• Player Info
• Kick
• Ban
• Send Message

4. The original Discord message updates after an action.

For example:

✅ Banned by @Admin

So Discord becomes almost like a live PalDefender moderation queue.

Why I think this is better than only slash commands

Normally an admin doesn’t know when they need to run a command.

PalDefender does.

So instead of:

Admin notices problem → finds player → finds UserID → opens RCON → executes command

It becomes:

PalDefender detects problem → Discord alerts admins → admin presses Ban

The Discord integration would actually extend the anti-cheat rather than just putting RCON commands into Discord.

Future possibilities

The MVP wouldn’t need these, but this could eventually become quite powerful:

• Detection history for the player
• Number of previous PalDefender flags
• Show guild information
• Show player coordinates
• Screenshot/evidence links if something like that is ever supported
• Require two admins to approve permanent bans
• Temporary bans
• “Watch player” mode
• Automatically create a private thread for every serious detection
• Add admin notes to an incident
• Mark detections as false positives
• Search old incidents from Discord
• Different Discord channels for cheat detections, joins, deaths, building activity, etc.
• Automatically increase severity when the same player triggers several different detections

But even just:

PalDefender Detection → Discord Embed → Kick/Ban buttons

would already be a really useful MVP.

The important part I would personally like to see added to PalDefender is a simple event/webhook interface. The community could then build the Discord side around it without PalDefender itself needing to contain a large Discord bot.

If you're in Paldefender discord server, would you mind sending me a DM?
