[Feature Request] Remote Raid Tracking in Raid Channels

[sigrunixia]

Hello there!

With the introduction of remote raids by invite, I noticed very quickly in my local discord that it became hard to track if the lobby would be filled up by the max amount of remote raiders allowed (currently 10 but later is stated to be 5).

Would it be possible to add a flag to track the amount of interested remote raiders (something like !i 1 rr1) much like how Meowth tracks teams? If the maximum is reached, Meowth could reply as such to indicate that players should form additional groups.

This would be incredibly useful for our Discord. Yesterday I was the person trying to coordinate multiple in person and remote people with who would invite which remote person to a raid, and it got really confusing.

I think the easiest way to track remote raiders would be through adding a single letter flag (like r), because people in our Discord are very bad at specifying their team and typically only use the single letter status command aliases.

Additional idea for this feature, but not necessary

To help facilitate the remote raids, the ability for remote raiders to be "claimed" by people who will be in person would be useful. This could be done by adding an optional r argument after specifying an in-person player is here, followed by either a number of players (if not in the Discord) and/or usernames of remote raiders in the Discord. This would allow players to use !list to easily see who they have said they will invite remotely and help coordinate raid groups.

For example, if Alice is raiding remotely, and Bob will be there in person, the commands could go something like this, with optional flags in brackets.

Alice: !r [1]
Bob:   !h [1] r Bob [none Discord remote count]

If the "claiming" feature is added, the ability to cancel specific people would be good (like if somebody didn't want to buy a remote raid pass). I'm not sure what the simplest way to do this is, but extending cancel behavior to take optional arguments of player names or a number, a player who is no longer inviting a remote raider can easily remove them from their invite list.

Continuing the example from above, if Bob wanted to invite an additional player (Eve) and somebody not in the Discord and Alice did not want to raid anymore, it could be as follows. This would result in Bob being responsible for inviting 2 people.

Bob:   !h r Eve 1
Bob:   !x Alice
