Hello,

Are there alternatives to using Steam API to get information from tradeoffers? See https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/4sp55w/ingame_item_trading_update/

What is the steam api used for in the nodejs bot? And is it possible to not use the steam api at all? 

For example, I have a site that lets people open random cases. They fill in their trade URL, buy a case and they receive their item.

Kind regards

Okay, thank you. I will look into this to try it whenever the bug occurs again.

Hello,

With a real time trade request, do you mean through friends, without a trade URL? Because with a trade URL I receive error 15.
If that is the case, is this supported by tradeoffer manager ?

Hello,

I'm having an issue with my bots recently. Once every +- 2 days, a bot shows up with an empty inventory. The only solution that I could find that worked, was to buy CS:GO for that account and run the game. The moment I run the game, my inventory appears again.

Is there something I can do to prevent this, or why does this happen? It has only started recently, +- 1.5 week ago. Nothing has changed in the code of my bot, it's still the same.

Kind regards

Error is no longer there. Keep up the good work.

Hello,

Since the latest update, I receive "Unable to accept offer : Unknown state 2" when receiving a new offer. The trade does go through, it goes to accepted afterwards. But for some reason it always emits "Unknown state 2" aswell. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

manager.on('newOffer', function(offer) {
  console.log("New offer #" + offer.id + " from " + offer.partner.getSteam3RenderedID());
  var steamid =  offer.partner.getSteamID64();


  offer.accept(function (err) {
    if (err) {
      console.log("Unable to accept offer: " + err.message);
      pusherTrigger.trigger('bot_status_ch', 'bot_status', {
        "message": "offline",
        "bot": BotID
      });
    } else {
      steam.checkConfirmations();
      console.log("Offer accepted");
    }
  });

});

Okay thank you. One more question. Does offer.getReceivedItems and offer.itemsToReceive always return the items in the same order?

Hello,

Is there a way to know the assetID of the items received before it changes? 

Right now, I have 1 inventorybot and multiple tradebots. The inventorybot distributes the items to the different tradebots. 

When I send an item from my inventorybot to the tradebot, my flow is as follows:

Flow of inventorybot : send item -> when accepted delete record in DB

Flow of tradebot : receive item -> accept -> insert into database

This is how I keep track of which items are in which bots. But there is data that only the inventorybot knows about some items, for example where I got the item from (Did I get it from bitskins, opskins or another seller). But that data is lost since I have to delete the record in DB. I would like to update the record instead of deleting and inserting a new one. I have no way to know which item in database I should update after it has been traded to anoter bot.

This could be done with a " UPDATE ... WHERE assetid = ..." . But assetID changes after trade, so that is not an option. 

Am I missing something on how I should do this?

Kind regards

Hello,

It is already implemented, but +- 1/50 sent offers are stuck on waiting for confirmation. Using Steamcommunity.
I think this is the same problem as https://dev.doctormckay.com/topic/173-confirmation-didnt-go-through/ . You've said that the libraries take care of the DeviceID, am I doing it correctly or am I missing something here ?

function login() {

  steam.login(logOnOptions, function (err, sessionID, cookies, steamguard, oAuthToken) {
    if (err) {
      console.log("Steam login fail: " + err.message);
    }


    fs.writeFile('steamguard.txt', steamguard);
    console.log("Logged into Steam");

    var mycookies = manager.setCookies(cookies, function(err) {
      if(err) {
        console.log(err);
        throw err;
        return;
      }

      console.log("Got API key: " + manager.apiKey);
      steam.startConfirmationChecker(2000, identity_secret);
      console.log("Confirmation Checker has started");
      offerItems();
      checkUnsentOffers();
    });
  });
}

Kind regards

Hello,

My bot sometimes gets stuck at "Awaiting mobile confirmation", which is annoying for the customers who want to receive their items.

I'm using the example code of steam-tradeoffer-manager on Github. Is there anything to do against this? 

Kind regards
