Discord bot going offline after a loop
I wanted to give my bot a presence that changes after a certain amount of time. (In this case 5 minutes)
@client.event
async def on_ready():
while True:
presence = randint(1, 5)
if presence == 1:
await client.change_presence(game=discord.Game(name='with commands', type=1))
elif presence == 2:
await client.change_presence(game=discord.Game(name='you', type=3))
elif presence == 3:
await client.change_presence(game=discord.Game(name='and watching', type=2))
elif presence == 4:
await client.change_presence(game=discord.Game(name='Youtube Videos', type=3))
elif presence == 5:
await client.change_presence(game=discord.Game(name='like a boss', type=1))
time.sleep(300)
problem is that after the 300 seconds my bot goes offline on discord, while the python file is still running, and doesn't show any errors. Anyone who knows what's causing this? Thanks.

Useawait asyncio.sleepinstead oftime.sleep. See What does blocking mean?
