Cant login to SteamCommunity, [Error: SteamGuardMobile]

[spazhead]

Hello all!

 

I have seen a similar question here, but to my understanding, it wasn't answered.

https://dev.doctormckay.com/topic/251-cant-make-a-simple-login-due-to-steamguardmobile/

 

My code is as follows: 

        var diff = 0;
        SteamTotp.getTimeOffset(function(err, d, l) {
            diff = d;
        });
        console.log(diff);

        var code = SteamTotp.generateAuthCode(config.secret, diff);
        community.login({
            "accountName": config.username,
            "password": config.password,
            "twoFactorCode": code,
        }, function(err){
            if (err) {
                console.log(err);
                process.exit(1);
            }
            communityloggedin = true;
            console.log("Logged on to SteamCommunity with "+config.username);
        });

Unfortunately, I get the error [Error: SteamGuardMobile]. The answer to the other question linked above had an answer but I failed to see the fix.

 

Thanks for your time,

Your clock is wrong, your secret is wrong, or you're trying to reuse a code. I see that you're trying to get the time offset, but what you're doing won't work as you aren't waiting for the callback. Please read a bit about how asynchronous JavaScript works.

 

If you want the time offset check to work, then you need to put everything inside the callback of getTimeOffset.

Thanks for the reply,

 

I have moved the community login code inside the callback and added a large delay (20 seconds) before the second code is generated. This corrected the issue!

 

I had no idea that you couldn't use the same Steam Guard code twice. 

 

Thank you so much,

Why are you logging in twice within 30 seconds anyway?
