Best practices

  • Double-check IP addresses and ports before running commands
  • Some game servers may have query disabled for security
  • Server status reflects real-time data and may change quickly
  • Make sure you have permission to create invites in the voice channel
  • Yato needs the CREATE_INSTANT_INVITE permission in that channel
  • Activities work best with stable internet connections
  • Some activities have participant limits
  • Server administrators can pre-configure frequently-used servers
  • Saved servers show additional information like player lists
  • Contact bot administrators to add servers to the saved list
For issues or questions, join the Yato Support Server.
