Feature Request: Radio/Shuffle mode about mumbledj HOT 13 CLOSED

Good ideas!

The shuffle mode is cool, but due to the nature of the data structure I use to represent the queue it wouldn't be (easily) possible to make it so that the queue is always shuffled. Probably the more realistic approach would be to add a !shuffle command that shuffles the items that are already in the queue (meaning that any songs added after !shuffle would not be shuffled until the command is used again).

The radio mode is also another good idea. Once the shuffle mode is implemented this would be fairly easy to implement, and I may be able to incorporate it with another idea I have been considering (allowing admins to save songs permanently).

The queue always being shuffled just does not make any sense. !shuffle would work well with playlists..

Don't believe anyone said it should always be shuffled. The always comment was for the "radiomode" idea I had outlined.

!repeat ? when turned on the current queue is looped !add is blocked until repeat is turned off..

that makes sense to me...

just wanted to throw out there, i would use a radio mode for sure.

currently my users just have full youtube playlists and add 25 at a time, but eventually (inevitably while mid-game) the playlist will end. i'm not familiar enough with go to be of any assistance however 😧

Hi, first, thanks for your awesome work!

I tried to implement a pretty simple mechanism for shuffling but I'm pretty new to go so any comment would be welcome 03a51ed

@GabrielPlassard: Thanks for doing this! I left a comment on the commit. Set up a PR and I'll test & merge it!

Actually, I used it a bit and I think @Nariaftw idea with !shuffleon and !shuffleoff makes more sense (at least for my use case). So I'm gonna have a look and try to implement it.
Do you prefer 2 separates PRs or only 1 when I'm ready?

from mumbledj.

@GabrielPlassard I think one PR would be fine. Are you keeping the !shuffle command as well? I think having both options would be cool.

from mumbledj.

As long as you think there is a use case for it, I don't see any reason to remove it :)

from mumbledj.

@GabrielPlassard Keep it then. I know that the people on my server would probably use it!

Closing this issue as shuffle has been implemented. I don't foresee implementing a radio mode any time in the near future.
