Heroku has a lot of rules, it's not surprising they are suspending accounts. I'm pretty sure they use AWS/ES2 so they are probably noticing a ton of traffic/requests coming from the bots, the scripts are kind of similar to web scraping/crypto mining in some way. https://www.heroku.com/policy/aup
Upper management/devs probably saw that something was up, had a quick discussion and realized most of the users are just scripting and they made the call to suspend. I'm surprised that so many people here don't want to or can't run their own computers 24/7? I thought steam users just left their stuff on all the time anyways?
You can probably find a cheap VPS for a couple of dollars a month if you really want to.
using git pull
I wouldn't though, just keep it on a stable version if you go to sleep. if he pushes an update that messes up the script you could end up with a lot of lost time. The current version at 345 commits is stable, and should be fine to use for the rest of the sale, but you'll miss out on the optimizations he'll post later on. Right now it randomizes zones a lot to reduce the chance of getting error10 from overloading steam servers, but that comes at a loss of exp/hour.
Here, I think installing this: http://cmder.net/
And using that instead of the default command prompt should make it look nicer and bring in all the colors. Let me know if it works if you decide to give it a try :)
download the updated files and overwrite them or use cmd prompt apparently.
however, i got tired of doing the first way and im not good with cmd so i did another way.
Download GitHub Desktop https://desktop.github.com/
When installing it, skip first screen, then make up a login or use a fake name and email since it doesnt matter if youre not fixing code.
in github desktop click file > clone repository and then put the address of the repository youre trying to clone. > ex: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/SalienCheat.git
4 . Save the file wherever you want and add the token.txt like in the readme.
5 . Now run the script. when you need to update close the script then open the github desktop and click repository > pull. it will update it for you.
run the script again to use the updated script.
Indeed, but that rescanning process is part of the normal script.
I learned that Window's cmd prompt earlier than Windows 10 can't use the colors that are coded into the cheat.php file.
To get colored text I went and downloaded cmder and ran the file through the prompt, though it isn't needed for the script to work, the script is just harder to read than normal without it.
To reiterate, the script works even though the colors aren't working as intended making things harder to read. If you see rescanning planets that's normal.
It looks like Heroku suspends some scripts, some people get hit, some people don't. (Stopping all processes with SIGTERM; Process exited with status 143)
you're getting it from GitHub right? might as well do it properly.
install git https://git-scm.com/downloads
delete the current script folder
where you want the script to live, run
> git clone https://github.com/SteamDatabase/SalienCheat.git
you now have the latest script version installed
when you want to update, stop the script, run
> git pull
and then restart the script.
That is happening because you're on Windows 7 and the Command prompt can't handle Bash style colour highlighting (the [1;33m] bits). Windows 10 can handle it fine however.
You can use something like cmder which is a massive improvement over Windows 7's command prompt and supports Bash style colours.
Item 21 in AUP probably:
> 21. Use the Service to access a third party web property for the purposes of web scraping, web crawling, web monitoring, or other similar activity through a web client that does not take commercially reasonable efforts to:
identify itself via a unique User Agent string describing the purpose of the web client;
and obey the robots exclusion standard (also known as the robots.txt standard), including the crawl-delay directive;
So you must use User Agent and follow robots.txt. While forks fix user agent, they do not follow robots.txt.
For fully autimatic use this
@echo off
SET timeout=1800
SET token1="token1" REM SET token2="token2" REM SET token3="token3"
:start taskkill /F /IM php.exe /T
git pull origin
START C:\tools\php72\php.exe cheat.php %token1% -new_console REM START C:\tools\php72\php.exe cheat.php %token2% -new_console REM START C:\tools\php72\php.exe cheat.php %token3% -new_console
PING -n %timeout% 127.0.0.1>nul
goto start
Apparently, someone managed to run it on Heroku. Good to know for those of us that don't have a spare server lying around the house... :)
Sure! I use sharex where I just press "capture screen" and then click / select the area I want to capture. It automatically uploads the gif to imgur or gfycat when I press done.
Repl.it maybe? I know they will go to sleep every 30 mins or so but it says if you have two servers you can just send a GET request to each of them every 20 mins and it should keep them online.
Nah, the batch will keep working, no need to update there ;)
Btw: You can use this tool to still get the colors: http://cmder.net/ (I have no clue how to set it up yet though, but I doubt it'll be hard)
I recommend you download Cmder which makes everything a bit more comfortable. If this does not help, please ask for help on the discord server in channel #scripting-help, they might be able to help you.
Issues online might be caused by steam being steam, aka high loads make it break sometimes, but having the script on the newest version will ensure they'll usually resolve themselves - just be patient
