### Custom Messages

The Member Counter supports dynamic variables to personalize your messages:

| Variable        | Description                                  |
| --------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| `{group}`       | Roblox group name                            |
| `{membercount}` | Current member count                         |
| `{amount}`      | Number of members gained or lost             |
| `{togo}`        | Members needed to reach the goal             |
| `{goal}`        | Current member count goal                    |
| `{newgoal}`     | New goal after the previous goal is achieved |
| `{s}`           | Adds "s" if `{amount}` > 1                   |

**Example Messages:**

* **Gained Message:**\
  `🌟 **{group}** has gained **{amount} new member{s}**! Just {togo} away from our goal of **{goal} members**.`
* **Lost Message:**\
  `😭 **{group}** has lost **{amount} member{s}**! We are {togo} away from our goal of **{goal} members**.`
* **Goal Achieved Message:**\
  `🎉 We have achieved our goal of **{goal} members**! The new goal is now **{newgoal} members**.`

***

### Member Counter Logic

* Panora automatically checks your group’s member count every minute.
* When the member count meets or exceeds the goal, it automatically updates `{goal}` by the defined `{increment}` value.
* Updates are sent to the configured Discord channel, either as plain messages or embeds, based on your settings.

***

### Error Handling

* If Panora encounters issues fetching the member count, it will retry up to three times with short delays.
* This ensures that updates continue even during temporary network or Roblox API issues.

***

### Summary

The Member Counter helps you **monitor growth, engage your community, and celebrate milestones** in real time. Customize goals, messages, and embeds to keep members informed and motivated.
