on what grounds my Bot1 got in order behind Bot2? i just redeemed win on my second account. normally it redeemed on my first bot and if owned, than on second. now it called second bot twice instead of in order:
[Linux] Eņģelītis: !redeem XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
ozo2003_BOT:
<Bot2> Key: XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX | Status: OK | Items: [126197, Monsti]
[Linux] Eņģelītis:
<Bot2> Key: XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX | Status: AlreadyOwned | Items: [126197, Monsti] both bots are up and running
Comment has been collapsed.
All bots are considered for forwarding, except with:
- The bot that redeems the key initially, as forwarding happens only if he failed to redeem the key
- Bots that are not connected or not logged to steam at the time of redeeming
- Bots that own particular game already
Then they're ordered in alphabetical order, as can be seen here.
Bots.Where(bot => (bot.Value != this) && bot.Value.IsConnectedAndLoggedOn && ((result.Items.Count == 0) || result.Items.Keys.Any(packageID => !bot.Value.OwnedPackageIDs.Contains(packageID)))).OrderBy(bot => bot.Key).Select(bot => bot.Value)So what happened? Either your bot1 was not connected and/or logged on, or it had the game already. Up to recently you'd get extra AlreadyOwned status, but since ASF got smarter with my recent enhancements, it's not even trying to redeem the package if your bot owns it already, after initial request to find out what is the packageID of your key.
Keep in mind that purpose of keys forwarding stays the same regardless of actual logic and optimizations:
"I have key X, I want to farm cards off it, and it doesn't matter for me on which bot the key will be redeemed"
I'll always repeat that if somebody expects specific bot to redeem specific key, he should instead execute redeem on that specific bot and not depend on any internal ASF forwarding logic, because internal logic is ASF implementation detail that can change between one version and another.
Comment has been collapsed.
both bots were up, running. they're called Bot and Bot2, so Bot should be alphabetically in front as it has been allways. first didn't have the game as i just won it here. but first bot didn't show alreadyowned message, it went straight and redeemed key on second bot, as you can see, it redeemed on second and tried to activate on same second one again as you can see in that message, instead of trying on first bot in first place
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't see any mistake in the code and it's not physically possible for ASF to execute same command two times, so perhaps it was Volvo fuckup like always. Did you send the command from mobile? It's known that Valve tends to send same message a few times on some unstable network, so it's possible that client received it two times.
Comment has been collapsed.
nope, from computer. same network as always, couldn't get more stable (i work for company that provides internet for like most of my country :))
Comment has been collapsed.
and again, if it's alphabetical, it's wrong.
[Linux] Eņģelītis: !status
[Linux] Eņģelītis: Bot a_bot is not farming anything.
ozo2003_BOT: Bot z_bot is not farming anything. [Linux] Eņģelītis: !redeem FV2QW-GFVER-7DZ8W
ozo2003_BOT:
<z_bot> Key: FV2QW-GFVER-7DZ8W | Status: DuplicatedKey | Items: [45501, Slipstream 5000]
[Linux] Eņģelītis:
<a_bot> Key: FV2QW-GFVER-7DZ8W | Status: AlreadyOwned | Items: [45501, Slipstream 5000]
<z_bot> Key: FV2QW-GFVER-7DZ8W | Status: DuplicatedKey | Items: [45501, Slipstream 5000] if it were alphabetical, a_bot should be first, yet again my second bot was first in order. why?
and something is wrong, cause it redeemed on second instance and recheked in next line
Comment has been collapsed.
Then you probably have fucked up scenario of having that bot as your own master, and your ASF on your account reacts to it's output - mainly cd-key that is being grabbed and tried to be redeemed. In this case ASF works in this way intentionally, as you're creating loop by yourself.

You didn't mention that you're using a group chat.
Set SteamMasterClanID of your primary account back to 0, otherwise your ASF clone is sitting there too (but not showing on list) and it executes your command, as you have yourself as your own master. In other words, you're executing the same command on both - yourself (primary) bot, and your target bot.

You can solve it by downloading latest ASF.zip and using latest ConfigGenerator.exe from that zip.

Comment has been collapsed.
If I am not mistaken the API only allows to receive the current status as JSON. What do you think about expanding the API, so that it is possible to receive every response (or at least responses you normally would interact with) as json output? I only communicate with ASF-server through scripts and have to parse every output with another regex atm (at least I am training my regexes ;) ).
I can't estimate how many people would use the extended API, perhaps it's to much wok for too little gain. But I could imagine it would be interesting for at least some people.
Another question, should ideas like this be posted to your repo or is it okay that I posted it here? Was just browsing SG and did not think about that in advance.
Comment has been collapsed.
Since WCF is not yet supported in NET core, I don't want to extend API because it'll need to be rewritten when all ASF components are ready to make a switch (see: #302). Probably new WCF will not be 100% compatible with what we have right now, so it'll be extra work if I decide to implement it right now. Once we have new ASF (V3 probably) ready on .NET core, I'll evaluate this.
And regarding suggestions - I prefer them in the thread, as GitHub issues is TODO list and I'll automatically put appropriate suggestions there if I consider them worthy. You can of course post it on GH anyway, but I may close the issue if I'm not interested.

Yeah I know about #302. Hope the switch to .NET core won't break too many things. fingers crossed!

You should begin with that information, everyone gets the 5 tries failed error now and then for no reason. :)
Check the trade offers with a browser or Steam client. IIRC 50 meant there are already 5 open, which can happen if they get stuck for some reason. If that's the case, canceling them will allow you to make new ones. If not, wait for someone that actually knows their stuff to appear.
Comment has been collapsed.
Damn Steam, seems like it crapped out yesterday and now I have some accounts still stuck farming but nothing drops.
Tried restarting couple times before going to sleep but didn't help. I guess I need to check Steam with browser/client next.
Edit: seems like they are still randomly stuck, some dropped cards on their own while others required abusing the !stop/!start bug.

Still have this bug on the some accounts. Everything looks normal but they wont drop any cards before you manually !stop/start them once. Seems to affect about the same accounts everytime as well.

If it's issue related only to currently farmed game, you can try to experiment with MaxFarmingTime. Otherwise I don't know what possible workaround I could implement...
Comment has been collapsed.
It's been happening on several games already, but not the first time when Steam works randomly on some accounts while others are fine. Been restarting whole ASF after each game has completed so it drops the next game fine and then gets stuck again.
Only automatic workaround I can think ot would be restarting bots all the time, maybe after 1 hour of no cards dropping. Would also abuse the current bug where a card drops right then most of the time. But probably no reason to do that unless it becomes more common, just wanted to tell this if others might have same problem so they know how to fix it.

https://github.com/JustArchi/ArchiSteamFarm/wiki/FAQ
do not ask why ASF can't accept or send trades - I don't know, and ASF doesn't know either.
Usual things to check:
- Did you check if your trading queue is not stuck with 5 pending trades already? No? Then do.
- Are you friend with SteamMasterID? No? Then do you have steam token put and proper?
- Did you wait a week since first apperance of the error? No? Then do.
BTW, all of the above is in the link I already sent you 2 days ago.
If nothing helps, call 777-Gabe-Logan-Newell-0812. As put in the FAQ, I don't know, and ASF doesn't know either. Asking will result only in waste of time.

Is it possible to separate the IsBotAccount and !loot command?
My situation is that i'm farming for friends, I still want the !loot command to include foils but I don't want friend requests/trades auto rejected.
Comment has been collapsed.
Not at the moment, and I don't think I'll want to separate it anytime soon.
Foils are rare, and if you farm your friends accounts then you could leave them something as well as a thank you. In fact, in your case, legit owner of the account should review every trade going on, and looting a primary account should not be even possible in the first place, but now it is as a special case for people that would like to stash farmed cards somewhere else (that doesn't include foils by design though).
So no, it's not possible, but as a SteamMasterID you can still ask for any items of your choice, and ASF will accept such trade (and confirm, if you use ASF 2FA as well).
Comment has been collapsed.
I see what you mean, in my case the legit owners do review every single trade, it just makes it easier than dragging all the cards 1 by 1 :D. The deal with my friends is I farm their accounts and take the cards they drop to trade for games. In return I get to activate trash games I get from things like gleam giveaways on their accs and those cards belong to me.
I guess I can stick to just doing the foils in a separate trade tho, shouldn't be too bad.
Comment has been collapsed.
Just a bit of an annoyance, and not sure what is causing it now but resizing the program window after AFS starts causes the text to disappear in the window. It still shows up in the log though.
I normally double the window size a little over double the width it starts out as to stop having as much text wrapping.
Comment has been collapsed.
Text only "disappears" if you make the windows smaller first, leaving empty space under it. Like you said, just scroll it back up and nothing was lost. Don't think ASF can affect how Windows 10 handles its command prompt. :)
At least that's how it's for me in pre-anniversary 10, if they broke that it's yet another reason to never get that crap.
Comment has been collapsed.
All text is gone in the window, scrolling doesn't make it reappear at all. The program still works though and outputs to the window what its doing at the preset intervals still.

so why !2faok <bootname> confirms only 15 cards sell at a time instead of all (ex: 80, 100 etc)?
Comment has been collapsed.
Ask GabeN.
If you need several !2faok to confirm everything, then it means that ASF 2FA receives only 15 confirmations at a time - I might need to reproduce that and invent a function that will keep asking for confirmations once all are gone. It didn't work like that, so maybe it's recent addition.

Hi! I have been reading but can't find the answer. Is there any option for ignoring one bot for redeeming keys? I mean, one bot who doesn't receive keys. Thanks!
Comment has been collapsed.
No. Forwarding keys clearly states that you don't care which bot redeems the key.
Comment has been collapsed.
Not sure if this is a valid workaround for this case but couldn't he just disable that bot while activating the keys ?

Indeed, that is a valid workaround as non-connected bots are excluded from keys forwarding by definition. But it's a bit different from ASF expected behaviour when forwarding keys.

Please, use some common sense and don't assume that you can do such crazy things only because ASF allows you to do that.

Now we just need others to get banned with less bots to find out what's the limit you can !loot at once safely.

Holy shit, how do you create over 1k bots?
Don't you have to pay 5$ for each of them (or were these stolen accounts)?
All of that only works with having twitter/gleam bots as well and "farming" free games I guess or how was he feeding all his bots? Or buying indigalabundles with cards ^^
I'm aware, that you can't / won't answer most of it, was just curious ;->
Comment has been collapsed.
Back in the good old days before the $5 you could just spam as many accounts as you wanted. And having 1k bots sounds like constant rain of boosters that you can sell to fund more bots even with the $5. It's all pure business at that point, not having fun while playing the Steam leveling up game.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hm... As far as I know the 5$ works for old accounts as well. So old accounts, that have never spent 5$ were set limited as well.
But I'm not sure about that.
Guess if you buy keys and sell them you do not loose that much. But still.
You need to automate everything like creating and so on.
Comment has been collapsed.
No they aren't. And yes you can just buy games from sales with the $5 and resell after with profit for example.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hm... thought I read something about accounts becoming limited. But might just be accounts that were created shortly before the start of limiting stuff.
And jeha you can do that, but thats a shitload of work, if you do not have a bot for that as well.^^
It just seems, that you have to have so many processes automated, or to invest so much time. But maybe he was doing that as a full time job ^^

How can I change the default color scheme of the command line? It seems like it won't keep the changes I make, neither copy the colour scheme of the cmd options.
Comment has been collapsed.
I would guess that has nothing to do with ASF, but with your OS.
And it depends on your OS...
So I would suggest entering "OS NAME AND VERSION" + "change default color of command window" + (maybe) "for .net applications" into google and follow the instructions.
Comment has been collapsed.
If you mean background color, then it's depending on your OS.
If you mean foreground color, e.g. the ones ASF uses for different logging levels (error/warn/info etc.). Then you can change those colors by specifying your custom logging configuration, and that part is described on wiki. You can even completely turn off colorized output by replacing default ASF ColoredConsoleTarget with ConsoleTarget, which is also described in Logging section in the wiki.
Unless you have a very good reason, most likely you don't want to change any of this.
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh I wasn't aware that ASF does use coloring. I thought it "inherited" the black and white scheme of the Windows cmd. That's why I was looking for a change. I'll stick with the defaults then, thanks for the answer!
Comment has been collapsed.
ASF is a C# application that allows you to farm steam cards using multiple steam accounts simultaneously. Unlike Idle Master which works only for one account at given time, requires steam client running in background, and launches additional processes imitating "game playing" status, ASF doesn't require any steam client running in the background, doesn't launch any additional processes and is made to handle unlimited steam accounts at once. In addition to that, it's meant to be run on servers or other desktop-less machines, and features full cross-OS support, which makes it possible to launch on any .NET Core-supported operating system, such as Windows, Linux or OS X. ASF is possible thanks to gigantic amount of work done in marvelous SteamKit2 library.
ASF doesn't require and doesn't interfere in any way with Steam client. In addition to that, it doesn't require exclusive access to given account, which means that you can use your main account in Steam client, and use ASF for idling the same account at the same time. If you decide to launch a game, ASF will get disconnected, and resume idling once you finish playing your game, being as transparent as possible during entire process.

For comparison with other similar programs and further read about the most interesting exclusive ASF features, I recommend to visit appropriate FAQ entry that explains everything in detail. It's also a very good starting point if you want to have a glimpse on what ASF can do, besides the obvious.
Setting up
Detailed guide regarding setting up and using ASF is available in the setting up article on our wiki. It's user-friendly tutorial with helpful screenshots that compacts the whole basic knowledge about ASF into a single document.

Is the project still supported?
As stated in my thread closing statement, despite of SG thread being closed, I intend to keep the project up-to-date and supported through non-SG channels. You can check the date of the latest release for reference.

The thread on SG is open for discussion and support matters that are related to ASF as a program. If you have any particular issue, question or other case to discuss, feel free to leave a comment.
