Trade offer polling not always working

[JAHMCR]

Hey!

I'm having issues polling the trade offers, it usually works when I start the bot but not when I send a trade offer while the bot is running.

This is my tradeOfferManager config:

this.tradeOfferManager = new TradeOfferManager({
  steam: this.client,
  community: this.community,
  language: "en",
  pollInterval: 1000,
  pollFullUpdateInterval: 2000,
  cancelTime: 600000
});

Any ideas or suggestions?

 

Update:

Added a "pollFailure" listener and I am now seeing this error:

Error: HTTP error 429

What's the recommended poll interval for trade offers to prevent exceeding this limit?

 

Thanks!

If you're passing an instance of SteamUser in to the constructor, I recommend you don't poll more frequently than every 30 seconds (30000). And you shouldn't be running full updates more frequently than every 2 minutes (120000).

In other words, the defaults are fine.

Got it, yeah I'm using the SteamUser instance in the constructor, so I'll leave it as default. Thank you very much!
