Detailed description of a problem

Whenever the compass is right-clicked, it opens a custom window, similar to opening a chest. However, the slots in the window returned by the Event are only those of the inventories and not of the chest itself.

What did you try yet?

Did you try any method from the API?

Yes

Did you try any example? Any error from those?

No

Your current code

bot.on('respawn', async () => {

    console.log(`Player Position (ReSpawn): ${bot.entity.position}`)

    if (bot.heldItem !== null) {
        if (bot.heldItem.name == 'compass') {

            await bot.waitForChunksToLoad()
            bot.activateItem(offHand=false)

        }
    }
})

bot.on('windowOpen', (window) => {

    console.log(window.slots)

})

So, I did a little tinkering here and there, and I was analyzing the packets being sent directly and I ended up realizing that the server is sending as expected, so much so that when I pull it directly using this method:

bot._client.on('window_items', (window) => {
   console.log(window)
})

it is possible to see the items that when pulled by the "Window" return of event "WindowOpen", appear only as null

This is not valid javascript:

            bot.activateItem(offHand=false)

What this is doing is declaring an offHand variable in the global scope, as it's not pre-defined with var or let within the current scope, and then that's being passed to the function. Also, activateItem returns a promise that you must await.

I don't understand what you mean here: "However, the slots in the window returned by the Event are only those of the inventories and not of the chest itself."

Where is the expected output coming from? Are you saying it's returning the bot inventory or one half of the chest?

You can log a full object without truncation by using console.dir(obj, { depth: null })

As can be seen in the previous messages and prints, whenever the bot interacts with the "Compass" item, it opens a Windows, as if it were a Chest, but, when I receive the event using the WindowOpen, it only shows the items that are present in the inventory and not those that should be in the "Chest"

But if I receive it directly, using the "window_items" event from minecraft-protocol, it already shows these items as can be seen below
