Requirements

Before starting, make sure you have:

• Administrator access on the Discord server
• Permission to create roles and channels
• A final staff list for owner, admin, and moderator teams

---

Setup Steps

1. Create Core Channels

Create these Discord channels before connecting or configuring major Helios systems.

Channel	Purpose	Who Can See It
#helios-cmd	Admin and owner command execution	Owner + Admin only
#raid-alerts	Critical alerts, raid pings, and failures	Owner + Admin + Moderator
#killfeed	Kill feed output	Community or staff — your call
#player-feed	Join and leave events	Moderator + Admin
#admin-feed	Tracks mod, admin, and owner actions	Owner + Admin only

Never run setup commands in a public channel. Setup can expose important server information.

2. Create Staff Roles

Set up your main staff roles before giving anyone Helios access.

Role	Discord Permission Level	Notes
Owner	Administrator	Keep membership very small
Admin	Manage Server	Daily management and module setup
Moderator	Read-heavy command scope	No billing or wipe control

---

3. Set Up the Link Role

Use /set link-role to assign the default Discord role players receive when they use /link.

You can also optionally set Xbox and PlayStation roles to be given when players link.

---

4. Set Notification Channels

Set up your main Discord feed channels with these commands:

/dcfeed add
/dcplayerfeed add
/set raid-channel
/adminfeed add

---

Discord Kill Feeds

Use /dcfeed add to choose the channel where killfeed messages should be sent.

• Select the Discord channel for killfeeds
• Optionally choose a specific server
• If no server is selected, all connected servers can send killfeeds to that channel

---

Player Join / Leave Feeds

Use /dcplayerfeed add to choose where player join and leave messages should be sent.

• Select the Discord channel for player activity
• Optionally choose a specific server

---

Raid Alerts

Use /set raid-channel to choose the Discord channel where raid alert messages should be sent.

Players can then use /raid link to connect themselves to raid alerts.

Players can also turn on Direct Message alerts for raid notifications.

---

Admin Feeds

Use /adminfeed add to choose the channel where admin feed logs should be sent.

Admin feeds show important staff and command activity, including:

• In-game gives from Moderators, Admins, and Owners
• Staff actions based on auth level in game
• Kit gives
• Kit Manager gives
• Gives done through Helios

---

Example

A good first-time setup would look like this:

The owner creates #helios-cmd, restricts it to Owner + Admin, grants Manage Server to the Admin role, and keeps Administrator locked to owners only.

After that, the owner creates the feed channels and configures Helios output before connecting major systems.
