node-steam-user: Timeout chat message

Describe the bug

This has been a long time issue for me with my chat bot. This seems to happen more often when the chat bot has a lot of messages to send, but your sendFriendMessage function reports a timeout error, even though the message had actually been sent successfully. This causes my bot to send duplicate messages, and it is pretty messy. Maybe increasing the timeout is all that’s needed to fix this issue, but I haven’t tried that yet.

Versions

v16.15.1

Closing this since it doesn’t appear that there’s really anything we can do about it.

Prolly we need to increase the timeout at here? Still suffering from this issue…

At my bot logs:
