Lacking Thread Support

[hermaplusplus]

The bot does not respond to threads. At this stage, it is unclear as to whether or not it receives a message event.

Hey @hermaplusplus , I'm interested in contributing to this issue, so before I start working on it, would you mind sparing your time explaining what the issue is about and pointing me to some resources to get started .

Hey @9gl! This issue regards the bot responding to normal text channels but not threads, even if it has permissions to and is present in the thread. This bot uses py-cord, which I am on completely familiar with yet as I have previously only used discord.py.

You can find the documentation for py-cord here and the on_message event documentation here.

The live bot uses the scopes bot and applications.commands, and is by default invited with the following permissions:

• SEND_MESSAGES
• SEND_MESSAGES_IN_THREADS
• EMBED_LINKS
• ATTACH_FILES
• READ_MESSAGE_HISTORY
• ADD_REACTIONS
• USE_EXTERNAL_EMOJIS
• USE_EXTERNAL_STICKERS
• USE_APPLICATION_COMMANDS

It is possible that py-cord does not support events from threads yet, but I haven't had much time to investigate it yet.
