Web logon interval


sNIP

Recommended Posts

I kept getting 403 from my VPS server, I tried testing 5 bots yesterday, everything was fine, but since I woke up on the next day, I kept getting 403 on both community and steam store, but the bot logs in fine.

 

client.on("webSession", (sidcookies=> {
    manager.setCookies(cookies);
    community.setCookies(cookies);

    // this is for keeping the bot in the steam network:
    setTimeout(function(){
        setInterval(function () {
            client.webLogOn();
        }, pollRate.webLogOn);
    },pollRate.webLogOn)
});

pollRate.webLogOn is 1000 * 60 * 5

I honestly do not know what is happening, since this is the third time I got permanently 403'ed on ip. I do not do anything malicious, I do not add friends, I do not send offers, I just tried to chat with the bots.

Really looking forward for some help

Every time you get a new web session, you're starting a new interval to call client.webLogOn(). So after a half hour, your web logon rate has elapsed 6 times and now you're calling client.webLogOn() 6 times every 30 minutes.

I wanted to log-in every 5 minutes, is this a problem? Should I move : 

setTimeout(function(){
        setInterval(function () {
            client.webLogOn();
        }, pollRate.webLogOn);
    },pollRate.webLogOn)

out of:

client.on("webSession", (sidcookies=> {
    manager.setCookies(cookies);
    community.setCookies(cookies);
    // This is where the setInterval Was
 
});

Yes, you should put that outside of any callback. It should only ever be called once.

 

Also, there's no use in nesting it inside a setTimeout.

Sure? I though that if I need to use steam-community I  need to constantly login in in order to not receive "Not logged" in error
