Is anyone else with some more streamers in their list, missing out on some watch streaks while this runs?

[Xaenchan]

Have around 250 in my follows, and 50 in my ORDER list

The script doesn't seem to always get a watch streak of someone, if they are more down or outside the ORDER list

(Priority.STREAK is at top in the settings ofc)

I think I read this somewhere: the more list you have on this script, the more time it needs to check for watch streak. Like it needs around 1 or 2 minutes to check watch streak for every online streamers on the list.
So assuming you have 300 list of streamers, and 50 of them online at the same time, the script needs 50-100 minutes to check for watch streak for the list based on the order list.

Hmm i'm not just talking about the watch streak when starting the script, but also while its already running for days

[quickwillie]

I have 40 streamers in my list.
I have this same problem.
It pretty much happens whenever someone lower on the list goes online. If the 2 streamers the bot is mining are above the recent onliner, it won't catch the streak.

I have tried changing streak time from 1 minute to 5 minutes with no joy. I am now testing it at 7 minutes as that was the only noticeable change I noticed between when it worked 24/7 to now.

7 minutes was the setting some versions before.
Didn't check if there are still some missing streaks, but it catches most when I reverted it

yep, and thats when I last didn't have to worry about it missing out on streaks. So far, setting it to 7 has worked. It's sunday/saturday, so a lot of my follows aren't on, but monday/tuesday should provide some better data

[quickwillie]

So I changed to 7 and it works like a charm again. I've had numerous channels come on from lower on the list and it catches them fine now.

I won't bother with 6, since honestly? a 2 minute difference isn't that big for me.

[Xaenchan]

I think there might be still a few chases where it doesn't catch a watch streak
Sometimes a streamer goes online and it just gets normal watch points
Sometimes a bunch of streamers come online at the same time, and it doesn't go for a watch streak on all of them
But that might also be because I'm watching another stream along with it myself
Will keep watching if it happens again

[quickwillie]

if you're watching a stream at the same time? Yea, that will prevent 1 of the slots from mining. Exception being if you are watching something it is already mining.

As far as just normal points? that only happens when there is no streak. so if you only got normal points, then you lost your streak somewhere.

Been running for about 40 hours now with no missed streaks. Will update at the end of the week with more.

So reverting back the setting to 7 minutes is kinda fixing the problem with getting streak with huge amount of list?

Ran the program with 7 minutes since Monday my time (it is now 30minutes shy of saturday my time) with 0 streaks missed.
I would say setting it to 7 fixed the issue.

Thanks for the test, will revert it back to 7.

Hello!

I would like to first thank the maintainer for this project!

I was on the verge of creating an issue just before seeing this discussion open.

I'm also having the same problem as the OP. Been running version 1.9.3 for a few weeks and I'm testing the new 1.9.4 version since yesterday. From what I could notice, when a number of streamers go online rather close to each other, the script sometimes ignores one of those streamers and it just skips collecting points and watch streaks.

For example: streamer A, B and C go online one minute apart from each other. The script collects streak from streamer B and C, but skips streamer A. This happens everyday with at least 2-3 streamers and I leave the script running on a remote PC for days. If this is valuable, my priorities are as follows: Priority.STREAK, Priority.ASCENDING.

The proposed solution above by the other participants might have fixed a more substancial bug but it seemed to not have fixed it completely. The tag « kinda-fixed » appear to be appropriate for this case.

With 300 in my follows, and 50 in my ORDER list, it still misses some watch streaks at times
Only the ones which are high in my order list and also gets farmed points I get constantly
The ones low in the list or just often follows times don't go higher than 5-15 before it skips the streak
(I already used the fix for quite a while now btw)

The prioritization or a better queue system to catch a watch streak has to be more optimized/looked at, to not miss out on some of those
Like if multiple streamers come online at the same time, seems to be one of the problems

[qs-arno]

Is it possible that the streaks are getting skipped because a streamer does a very short stream, so that they go online and offline before the bot has a chance to a) notice that the streamer is online, b) watch the stream long enough to trigger the watch streak after switching over?, and c) do all of the above in sequence for multiple streamers that come online at the same time?

Maybe the next time you miss a streak, check the logs for that channel and see if the streamer in question has an "online" event followed quickly by an "offline" event?

Seems weird to happen consistently, but it also seems strange that the bot would fail this way, but only rarely and/or only with very large follow lists.
