Logs are stored in the same folder as the bot as <username>.log

 

There are actually 2 log files, <username>.log which logs everything and <username>.trade.log which (you guessed it) only logs trades. So if you're right you ought to be able to find it in both (just search for 76561198078497685)

I know about those logs but it only shows trades, so I thought I was missing something.

I didn't trade with them though, I declined it manually once I checked for myself.

After much fucking around I have a working update to this method, thank you to the original author. The reason why it stopped working is that Valve disallowed newer versions of the Steam app from bein

That's the problem. This problem, when the price of 2.11. First, an error, and then accepts.

@Carnage: only trades? you might want to check your settings and start logging everything (verbose level)...

Ok, I was just being dumb there. Here it is.

@Roby: Nothing... it's working fine.

 

@Don Martin: Yep, Steam is being shit. These errors will pop up often.

 

No it does not. Doesn't accept / decline anything, all the messages I get after that are Error occourred contacting backpack.tf etc.

The problem was unclear from the image you provided. Last line says "Heartbeat sent..." so it must have worked in the end.

 

You should be seeing this type of message in the console:

15:17:40 - debug: offers: 0 pending, 0 new received.

 

Also, after you receive an offer, this type of message should appear:

15:10:37 - info: steam: 1 trade offer pending.

Sorry if my screen was misleading, this is actually what happens after some time automatic is left on. It doesn't do anything, of course. Weirdly enough it doesn't even ask me for my Family View PIN.

Steam is having its daily share of issues, not Automatic's fault.

This is weird. I'm sure you have already restarted your bot. Since you mentioned Family PIN, it might be related. That thing adds lots of obstacles to trade offers. Also Valve *might* have changed something.

 

@cares: not a Steam error though, at least according to the 403 status code

Yeah, I changed nothing at all. It just stopped working yesterday

Steam is really messed up, sometimes I've seen Forbidden being returned on perfectly normal urls with me logged in.

I am just wondering if there is a way to pull items from a different inventory (steam trading cards) and accept them as currency. I found this part:

    theiritems.forEach(function (item) {
        // we don't want non-craftable items, unless it's a key, gg valf
        if ((item.market_name != "Mann Co. Supply Crate Key") && (item.craftable === false)) {
            isValid = false;
        }

        // these are the only items we accept
        if (item.app_data.quality === ItemQualities.Unique) {
            if (item.market_name === "Mann Co. Supply Crate Key") {
                keys++;
            } else if (item.market_name === "Refined Metal") {
                refined += 1;
            } else if (item.market_name === "Reclaimed Metal") {
                refined += 1 / 3;
            } else if (item.market_name === "Scrap Metal") {
                refined += 1 / 9;
            } else if (item.market_name === "Earbuds") {
                // we don't want gifted earbuds
                if (item.gifted === true) {
                    isValid = false;
                }

                earbuds += 1;
            } else if (item.craftable === true) {
                // we'll also take random weapons at half a scrap
                item.tags.forEach(function (tag) {
                    if (tag.category === "Type" && ["secondary", "primary", "pda2", "building", "melee"].indexOf(tag.internal_name) !== -1) {
                        isValid = true;
                        refined += 1 / 18;
                    }
                });
            /*else if (item.market_name === "Trading Cards") {
                // Replace trading cards as currency
                refined += 1 / 9;
            }*/
            } else {
                isValid = false;
            }
        } else {
            isValid = false;
        }
    });

I commented out the part I added b/c I am pretty sure that it's a little more complicated than that.

tested it out with my friend, doesn't work says its an unsupported item

that is normal behavior at this time, it only does the decline stuff if the trade offer would've been accepted in the first place.
