Hello, Trying to set a game that the bot is playing. Here is my code :

Code: 
// CALLING THE PACKAGE
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const bot = new Discord.Client();

bot.login(')
bot.on('ready', () => {
  console.log('Bot started')
  bot.setGame('Watching L00ting')

});
bot.on('message', message => {
  if(message.content.toLowerCase() === 'hello')
    message.channel.send('Hi there!' + message.author);
    if(message.content.toLowerCase() === 'test2')
      message.channel.send('Hi there!' + message.author);
      if(message.content.toLowerCase() === 'test')
        message.channel.send('Hi there!' + message.author);
});

and here is the error I get,
Code: 
 ^

Replace .setGame with .setActivity, https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/ClientUser?scrollTo=setActivity

bot.user.setGame('game here');

WARNING THIS IS DEPRECATED!

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Client -- I would recommend looking through here to find the method to set the game.

As you can see, setActivity and setGame aren't methods. In fact, it's nothing to do with the client object, but the User object within the client.

Look into user#setPresence ;)

EDIT: Cole -> this is the now, none-deprecated way!

});

This should work. The "Watching" status is the type of presence, such as Online and Streaming.

missing ) after argument list
Try to understand the error, you can see it says missing ). So that means there is a missing ). Think English, in English you would use an open bracket AND a closing bracket. Not just an open bracket, so that means you need a extra ) as you never closed it.

Instead of asking, try to understand yourself first

You didn't put it in quotations. It's a string..
