Bummer. I've tried clearing npm cache, and even reinstalling Node. I think I'm going to try pushing to a remote and see if there isn't just something stupid happening with my local environment. EDIT: I've now tried the same script on a fresh DigitalOcean droplet and I still get InvalidProtocolVer trying to join a chat. FINAL EDIT: Well this is embarrassing.. I tried the above script with my own credentials and it worked! So I started investigating differences between my account, and the bot account. Which ultimately led me to this. I was receiving the error because the bot was a limited user. I added funds to its Steam wallet and it works as expected.

I have tried inviting it to a public Steam user group chat, and to a multi-user chat, and get an InvalidProtocolVer in each case.

I am using the latest version (3.9.0).

I am trying to build a basic group chat bot. At the moment it looks like this.. var User = require('steam-user') var bot = new User() bot.logOn({ 'accountName': process.env.USERNAME, 'password': process.env.PASSWORD }) bot.on('loggedOn', function (res) { console.log('Logged in!') console.log(res) bot.setPersona(User.EPersonaState.Online) }) bot.on('webSession', function (sessionID, cookies) { console.log('Got a web session!') }) bot.on('friendMessage', function (steamID, message) { console.log(`message from ${steamID.getSteam3RenderedID()}: ${message}`) }) bot.on('chatInvite', function (inviterID, chatroomID) { bot.joinChat(chatroomID, function (eresult) { console.log(eresult) }) }) bot.on('error', function (e) { console.log(e) }) The call to the joinChat method is successful but the EResult is a 7 - "InvalidProtocolVer". I've been searching for information about how to handle this type of error and was hoping that maybe someone here has encountered it before.
