Premium And Server Management
Use this guide to keep a DispatchX server clean after setup: premium, department limits, Discord settings, linked departments, and the checks to run after an update.
Server Management Basics
Select The Server
Always start from Servers and open the correct community before changing settings.
Open Manage
Use Manage for departments, Discord IDs, ERLC API key, linked departments, roster access, and premium-related server controls.
Update The Roster
Add each member's Discord User ID and callsign so linked department dashboards can appear and load the correct callsign automatically.
Test With One User
After changing roles, departments, or roster entries, have one staff member refresh and open the affected dashboard before announcing it server-wide.
Roster Management
The roster keeps linked department access clean. A member must have their Discord User ID saved in the roster to see a linked department Dashboard button. Their saved callsign is passed into the dashboard automatically.
- Use the exact numeric Discord User ID for each member.
- Keep department names consistent with the linked department when possible.
- Use search to find members by callsign, department, unit, username, or Discord ID.
- Collapse roster cards after editing to keep long rosters easy to scan.
- Main servers do not show a department Dashboard button; use them for management and linked department setup.
Status and Reliability
- Review status before major events.
- Alert your staff when disruptions are identified.
- Escalate unresolved issues through official support.
Staff Coordination
- Keep team and contact roles up to date.
- Maintain clear shift handoff notes.
- Document recurring procedures for new members.
