RateLimitExceeded when promptSteamGuardCode is false

[frej4189]

I am currently working on a bot which requires user access (non-anonymous), and for the purpose of making my own method of retrieving the app code, I have set promptSteamGuardCode to false, however this causes a RateLimitExceeded error when a log on is attempted, the steamGuard event is never emitted.

My code calls the logOn function only once, and no other steam-related methods are called multiple times either, here is the logOn snippet:

 

                let client = new SteamUser({promptSteamGuardCode: true});

		client.logOn({
			accountName: username,
			password: password
		});

		client.on('error', error => 
			callback(error)
		);

		client.on('steamGuard', (domain, callback, lastCodeWrong) => {
			callback("TokenRequired", domain, callback, lastCodeWrong);
		});

The function includes further non-steam related code, so that has been omitted.

What might be the cause of this?

Welp, I'm stupid.

This is caused by me attempting to call the callback of the main function, but it obviously calls the callback of the steamGuard event, causing yet another steamGuard event, and then looping until I get RateLimited.
