Overseer

From Descendants of Darkness Wiki

The Overseer Guide

The Overseer is a monitoring device that allows you to track yourself or another player. It can alert you when the monitored player is attacked, nearing starvation, or needs help while offline.

If the tracked player is attacked, the Overseer will send a notification in Nearby Chat and, if configured, to Discord through a webhook.





How Alerts Work

The server checks for attacks every 15 minutes on the hour. If an attack has occurred, the Overseer will send an alert within that 15-minute window.

Alerts may include:

  • Attack notifications
  • Near starvation warnings
  • Discord webhook notifications, if added

What the Overseer Can Do

With the Overseer, you can:

  • Monitor yourself or another player
  • Receive attack alerts
  • View attack logs for up to 3 days
  • View death logs
  • View kill logs
  • Remotely donate blood to an offline player
  • Add Discord webhook alerts
  • Remove the tracked player and add a new one

How to Use the Overseer

  1. Rez the Overseer.
  2. Touch the Overseer to open the menu.
  3. Add yourself, or have the player you want to monitor touch it.
  4. Both players must be alive when adding a player.
  5. The tracked player may be resting, but they cannot be dead.

The Overseer hover text will change color depending on the tracked player’s health:

Hover Text Color Meaning
Green Healthy
Yellow Warning
Red Danger

Note: If the tracked player is dead, the menu options will not be available. The only available option will be to remove the player.

1. Donate Blood

The Donate Blood option allows you to remotely feed the tracked player.

To donate blood:

  • The tracked player must have been offline for at least 4 hours.
  • You must accept the debit permissions popup.
  • The cost is L$50 per 0.500 liters.
  • Donations increase in 0.500 liter increments.

This is useful when a player cannot log in to feed themselves.

Important: Debit permissions allow the Overseer to charge your account for the blood donation.

2. View Attack Logs

The View Attack Logs option lets you review attacks against the tracked player.

You can view logs for:

  • Today
  • Yesterday
  • The day before yesterday

Log Paging System

Attack logs, kill logs, and death logs all use a paging system.

Each page can display up to 4 logs. The Overseer can print up to 4 pages at a time. Once those pages are printed, you may be asked if you want to view more.

If you click More, the Overseer will print older pages.

Think of the logs like a book:

  • The newest logs are on the highest page numbers.
  • When the logs print in Nearby Chat, the newest entries appear at the top.
  • Older entries continue below as more pages are printed.

3. View Kill Logs

The View Kill Logs option shows every recorded time the tracked player has killed another player.

Kill logs may include:

  • Date and time
  • Victim name
  • Killer name
  • Location
  • Teleport location
  • Total kill count

5. Turn Off Attack Alert

This option turns off attack alerts for the tracked player.

When attack alerts are turned off:

  • You will no longer receive Nearby Chat attack messages.
  • Discord webhook attack alerts will also stop.

6. Turn Off Near Starvation Alert

This option turns off near starvation alerts.

When this is turned off, you will not receive a Nearby Chat message when the tracked player is close to dying from lack of feeding.

7. Set Starvation Alert

The Set Starvation Alert option allows you to choose when you want to be warned before the tracked player dies from lack of feeding.

You can choose to be alerted:

  • 1 day before death
  • 2 days before death
  • 3 days before death

For example, if you select 1 day, you will receive a notification in Nearby Chat and Discord when the player is within one day of dying from starvation.

If the alert is set to 1 day and you receive the warning, the player will die at midnight if they are not fed.

8. Remove Player from Overseer

This option removes the currently tracked player from the Overseer.

After removing a player:

  • You will no longer receive notifications about them.
  • You may add a new player to the Overseer.

9. Add Discord Webhook

This option allows you to add a Discord Webhook URL to the Overseer.

Once added, the Overseer can send alerts to your chosen Discord channel when:

  • The tracked player is attacked
  • The tracked player is near death from starvation

Warning: Keep your Discord Webhook URL private. Anyone with the URL may be able to send messages to that Discord channel.

How to Add a Discord Webhook to the Overseer

Step 1: Create a Discord Webhook

  1. Open Discord.
  2. Go to the server where you want Overseer alerts to appear.
  3. Click the server name in the top left.
  4. Select Server Settings.
  5. Click Integrations in the sidebar.
  6. Under Webhooks, click Create Webhook.
  7. Choose the channel where alerts should be sent.
  8. Customize the webhook name and avatar if desired.
  9. Click Copy Webhook URL.

Step 2: Add the Webhook URL to the Overseer

  1. Touch the Overseer to open the menu.
  2. Select Add Discord Webhook.
  3. Paste the Discord Webhook URL.
  4. Confirm the change to save it.

Step 3: Test the Webhook

After adding the webhook, test it to make sure alerts are working.

You can test by:

  • Simulating an attack on the tracked player
  • Checking the selected Discord channel for the alert message

If the alert appears in Discord, the webhook is working correctly.
