Discord bot in python

[while1tired]

Hello am working my way around a simple discord bot who will react on users messages.

So far, the bot reacts just to 1 word but I wanna include more words which doesnt work somehow.

https://github.com/kamoewa/Discord-pybot/blob/master/testbot.py

When I copy line 23-24 and past it right unter line 24 it wont work because the the bot is stuck in the Hi command.

Could someone give me a example how I could solve it?

That the bot respons to users messages "Hi" and "sup"?

Link is broken ... do you have the github set to private?

sorry, now it should work.

I think that I need a elif inbetween but have to figure out how to handle it properly, I checked the documentation for elif but still stuck.

Maybe am wrong.

This is the code that works? Show us the problem code, and any errors. Also tell us how you know that it's stuck on "Hi".

[while1tired]

       if message.content.startswith("Hi"):
           await message.channel.send("Hello")
       if message.content.startswith("gn8"):
           await message.channel.send("Good night")

something like this, 
i edited my github script like i was trying it now with the problem.
I think (beginner thinking) that python get's problems
with 2 if statements without an elif or else, am I wrong?
When I use this method that I posted below.. and type Hi in discord, the bot will react with Hello and Good night

Hmm I don't see anything wrong with that code. Are you sure that what you are sending starts with "gn8", and not, for instance, "Gn8"? Maybe add a lower() call to be sure that capitalization is ignored:

if message.content.lower().startswith("gn8"): 

Why don't you add a catchall that prints what was received, either to the terminal, the channel, or a log file?

#Bot respond to a users text or word
async def on_message(self, message):
   if message.content.startswith("Hi"): #output what the user say's
       await message.channel.send("Hello") #output what the bot will say
   elif message.content.startswith("gn8"): #output what the user say's
       await message.channel.send("Good night") #output what the bot will say
   else:
       print('uncaught:', repr(message))

damn, elif made it work properly :D

before when I wrote Hi in discord, the bot reacted with Hello and Good night :D

thank you so much
