Building a Discord.js Manual Levelling System with Quick.db

Creating a levelling system for your Discord server can enhance community interaction and engagement significantly. In this guide, we’ll walk you through setting up an XP management system using discord.js and quick.db, allowing your admins to award experience points (XP) to users through simple commands.

The Problem Statement

You want to implement a levelling system that performs the following functions:

Award XP to users via the command >givexp @ user# 1234 amount.

Notify users when they level up.

Allow admins to reset XP and levels with the command >resetxp.

Display users' levels and current XP when they use the command >level.

However, you encountered a couple of issues:

Users are not receiving the correct XP on their first award, leading to discrepancies in total XP.

Users on Level 0 don't level up after reaching the required XP until they are awarded more XP.

Solution Overview

To resolve these issues, we need to adjust your current code logic to ensure that:

You initialize the necessary variables appropriately.

You correctly check against the XP requirements for levelling up.

Key Issues Identified

The root of the problem lies in how you're setting default values for the variables and checking them later in your code. Here's a breakdown of necessary amendments.

1. Values Initialization

The following line checks if the level variable is null but does not set it accordingly:

What is Missing:

After setting the value in the database, you must also update the level variable in your code. Otherwise, comparisons involving level (like xpreqs[level]) will refer to null, causing your logic to fail.

Corrected Code:

2. XP Distribution Logic

When checking if a user qualifies for levelling up, your code has to ensure that it references a valid level:

If level is still null, this comparison won’t work as intended and can lead to unexpected behavior.

Recommended Code Changes

Ensure that you have set the level variable after initializing it in the database:

After implementing these corrections, your XP awarding and level checking logic should operate as expected.

Example Commands

Here's how your command functionality can be summarized:

Award XP: >givexp @ user# 1234 amount

Check Level: >level

Reset XP/Level: >resetxp @ user# 1234

Conclusion

By correctly initializing your level variable and properly referencing it later in the code, you ensure that users receive the correct XP and level up as intended. With this robust structure, your Discord server's engagement can significantly increase, offering users a rewarding experience.

Feel free to implement these changes and test your levelling system. Happy coding!
