Possible bug on sendFriendMessage() ??

[Jack Nolddor]

I'm facing an strange error while sending big messages using /pre tag (see attached image)

I haven't be able to determine de root cause checking your actual source code on github. But, sending the same message manually using steam client seems not to reproduce the error, it seems the problem is caused but steam-user module itself

You can check the live demo at my bot:

https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199096164013/

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1.- Add the above account
2.- Type !help at its chatroom

 

Relate Source Code:

Is it my fault? I'm doing something bad? Help is appreciated.
Thanks

anyone?

My guess would be that your message is just too long, and Steam is choking on it.

Sending same message manually does not reproduce the issue :S

When I try to get my own bot to send that exact message using that exact code, I get RateLimitExceeded (84) every time.

v4.19.10 should fix this issue, although you will also have to add the containsBbCode option, like this:

client.chat.sendFriendMessage(sender, response, {includesBbCode: true});

Yeah, Steam changed chat ratelimit few days ago, now my text is too large for new limit.

Oh already saw the new release, ty for the fix! <3 good job

PS: Isn't includesBbCode true by default?
