Intro
This Tip Goals / Multi-Goal App is available to everyone for public use, developed by CB users butter_my_toast ("butter") and chelsea2950 ("chelsea").
Current Version: 2.1 (revised April 8, 2021). The Change Log of fixes and enhancements in each release is at the bottom of the page.
Please follow us on twitter @thechelsea2950 for app and bot updates, and also let us know if you find any issues or have recommendations for improvement, we appreciate your feedback!
Version 2.0 was a significant change to the App, bringing it up to date with the current features in the Progressive Goals portion of Dorothy's Ultra App. Please review the features and your current settings!
Notes:
While the source is kept open for the reasons noted below, which makes it easy to copy and modify this for individual cammers (which is ok to do), please keep in mind that by doing so you'll miss out on fixes and new features that are added to the public App.
If you have a recommendation for something you would like added, please let us know and if it makes sense, we'll put it in the public App so you can continue to take advantage of the latest version.
We've also created a Twitter DM group for users of the Apps and Bots we've written, please message us on twitter and let us know if you'd like to be added to the group.
In that group you'll receive notifications on new features, get tips and tricks, be able to provide feedback on them and request enhancements, and take part in discussions on how they can best be used.

App Tips
A. Colors and Themes
There are few concepts to follow with regard to defining your colors within the App.
Note that these same themes are avaialble across all of the "Dorothy" apps and bots, so you can easily present a consistent look and feel to the messaging in the chat even when multiple apps and bots are used together.
-- Color themes will be used for the recurring notices and the goal completion notices
-- The color theme can also be customized with up to three background colors and a text color
-- You can apply the gradient effect (gradual color fade) to all of your individual background color settings or use a solid color for custom colors... the predefined themes all use a gradient color
When selecting custom colors, for themes or indiviudal feature settings, you must use what are known as "hex codes" for each color.
These codes are in the format of a # sign followed by 6 alpha-numeric characters, hence the term hex".
For example, the code for white is "#ffffff", and the code for one common shade of red (there are thousands) is "#ff0000".
In order to use the correct code, you'll need to look up your code and enter it in the app launch page where there are custom color settings available.
Note that https://www.colorhexa.com is a good site for looking up the hex color codes for the colors you'd like to use.
There is also https://cssgradient.io/ to see how multi-color gradients backgrounds will look.
These are just some suggested sites, there are plenty more available if you do a search online.
B. Emoji's
Emoji's can be used in a couple places in the App, primarily goal text and the border on several of the recurring notices.
Some commonly used Emojis's and unicode characters are listed below, however this is just a few, there are tons of emojis available, and you can browse a more complete list here: https://unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-em oji-list.html ...or elsewhere, just search for "emoji list" on google.
I've chosen to list the fairly generic ones that are mostly symmetrical. Simply drag your cursor over each to highlight and then copy and paste the emoji into the launch page or your room title to use it.
You can also use the /emojis command in the app to see the same list.
Note that there are only certain ones that can be used in your room title, as the more complex ones will not display, and those are repeated on separate lines as well.
Random 1:
Random 2:
Faces:
Animals:
Hearts:
Seasonal:
Flowers:
Food:
Gifts & Awards:
Sports & Gaming:
Symbols:
Mail:
Signs:
Circles:
Squares:
Unicode characters and the following emojis can be used in your room title:
Unicode characters:
Room Title Set 1:
Room Title Set 2: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
C. Background Panels
The area (usually) underneath the video stream where the current goal or ticket show status are displayed is call the Draw Panel.
The Tip Goals App has several different predefined panels that can be displayed here as a background to the text, and you can also have a custom one made.
The option "My Custom Panel" is selected if you have your own panel uploaded into the App (must be coded into the App), if you use this option without having your own panel, it will just use the default panel.
If you would like to submit a custom panel to be added for your room, the graphic must be 270 x 69 pixels, contact us here or on twitter to arrange adding it.
To see the full list of the available panel backgrounds, they are shown here: https://camscaster.com/apps/app_file/dor othys-tip-goals/
Unfortunately this page only lists the CB file names, and does not show the names of the panels used in the app, but you should be able to narrow it down by the descriptions in the choices.
If you just have an idea for a theme for additional panels to be added, let us know. We've tried to include most major holiday themes, and are open to adding more.
Moderator Trust Levels
Moderator Levels let you identify how much your mods can do based on a trust level. These rules apply to both mods assigned in CB and App mods.
Essentially, "Basic" level lets them use low-risk level features, "Standard" gives more authority to more commands, such as editing the content of goals and managing your ticket shows, and "Advanced" lets them act on your behalf and do nearly everything the broadcaster can do with the app as far as commands go.
However note that it is *not* possible for a bot or app to give authoirty to other CB functions that a broadcaster does, like ban people from the room, start private or group shows, etc.
The default setting is "Standard", but you can decrease it if regularly assign new mods and don't want them to have a lot of authority, or increase it if you have trusted mods that manage your show for you.
"Basic" Moderator Abilities
- Use the List Goals and List Remaining Goals commands
- Update the room title and other goal related text
- Display the emoji list
- Access the moderator help page
"Standard" Moderator Abilities
- All "Basic" ablities plus the below
- Edit and maintain goals, restart a goal
- Update the panel background and text color
- Update the theme color (background and text)
- Skip and manually advance goals
- Manually add tips to a goal
"Advanced" Moderator Abilities
- All "Standard" ablities plus the below
- Reset the current app feature and start over
Only the broadcaster can use the /setmodlevel command to update the moderator trust level setting during the show.
Commands
Most of these are available for moderators and broadcasters only, with some exceptions. Note that you can also type "/goalhelp" within the chat to see the list of commands as well.
Any changes you make with commands are not stored permanently, they are only stored within the current session.
April 8, 2021 Version 2.1 (current version):
- Update the notice borders to be better aligned
- Update "help" and "about" text, and places where long goals may be displayed to have word wrap functions
- Default to color theme of "Shades of Blue"
- Rearrange and group the settings in section 3 for personalization, remove redundant color settings, don't need Tip Goals color setting + theme since only one feature in this app
April 2, 2021 Version 2.0:
*** Note that this version includes significant changes, and has brought this app current with the features and look and feel of Doorthy's UltraApp.
Below are the highlights of what is now included:
- Added choice for whether Goal will count up or count down.

Note: Older release notes have been archived to save space.
Dorothy's Apps and Bots
The purpose of this Tip Goals App is to provide many of the most commonly used multi-goal related features in one place, and give broadcasters and their trusted moderators the ability to change many of the settings, list of goals, prizes, etc without restarting the App.
The "Dorothy" set of apps and bots are intended to be used in one of two ways that are generally based on your experience level, appetite for using commands, and the abilities of your moderators and what you want to entrust them with.
For the most part, the apps and bots all work together and shouldn't conflict, except where there are specific known challenges noted below.
Below is a quick guide to our two suggested approaches for using apps and bots. This particular App typically falls under Strategy 2:
Strategy 1: Use a single set of apps and bots to do everything
- Use the same set of bots and app for every show (there is still flexibility within each to do different types of shows), but you don't have to pick and choose new apps and bots for each show.
- Usually for more experienced cammers or broadcasters who are willing to spend significant time getting their room just the way they want it
- Have a reliable moderator or group of moderators that you trust to run the show for you
- Are comfortable using commands and prefer to make changes using commands versus starting/restarting an app or bot to change how it functions
- Would like to have fanclub or VIP access benfits but don't want to set up those lists in several differet bots that all work differently
If this strategy sounds like you, it would be recommended to use the following set of apps and bots:
Dorothy's Ultra Fembot (bot) - For chat control and other chat information like tip menu, token poll, etc
Dorothy's UltraApp (app) - To drive the type of show (goals, ticket, etc.)
(optional) Dorothy's Gamebot (bot) - For fun - about 10-15 games included in one place (dice, wheel , keno, charades, etc)
Strategy 2: Use individual Apps and Bots for the features you want to use
- New to CB and don't know alot about apps and bots yet, so give me the simple approach.
- Spend minimal time setting each one up
- Like to have more robust features in each individual bot, for example a bigger tip menu than is available in the Ultra Fembot, or more notifiers, etc. The UltraApp is already quite large, so we've tried to not make it even larger by giving the absolute most choices for each of those features.
- Don't rely on moderators and would like to switch out apps and bots when you want to do something different
- Don't like to use commands, would rather restart an app or bot when changes need to be made.
- Don't really use fanclubs extensively
If this strategy sounds like you, it would be recommended to use the following set of apps and bots:
Dorothy's Easy Fembot (bot) - For chat control and basic tip tracking and messaging features. Still keep this running the whole show, but swap out the other apps and bots as needed below.
Dorothy's Tip Goals (app) - To do typical goal shows (Currently this is the only stand alone "Dorothy" goal app, additional goal types will be split out from the UltraApp in the near future)
Dorothy's Token Poll (bot) - Turn on a token poll to vote for options by tipping
Dorothy's Text Poll (bot) - Turn on a token poll to vote for options by typing a number
Dorothy's Tip Menu Pro (bot) - Two available menus of xx and xx slots
Dorothy's Notices and Room Rules (bot) - Disply rotating notifiers, room rules, user entry welcome message
Dorothy's Lush Bot (bot) - Can be used to display a toy menu for all Lovense Toys
Dorothy's Ticket Show (app) or Dorothy's Easy Ticket show (app) - Run a ticket show - the "easy" version only needs a price and description as input.
Dorothy's Dice Game (bot) - Basic Roll the Dice bot
Another more general reason to use the "Dorothy" apps and bots is that we started doing our own development to create apps and bots that do not have developer backdoors giving people you don't know authority or special access to your show.
As you can see, the source for our apps an bots will always be visible so you can see exactly what it's doing, we don't encode it or try to hide the source like many others do.
There is no special access for any user IDs, including our own.
Please check out the below links, which will display the full listing of apps and bots that we have made.
