0_1575549935511_1e1cecbb-b98d-43cc-8c8a-a2061f278d93-image.png

I have only one item in the drop down: "None - Opt out of all beta programs"

Nothing happens when I select the drop down menu "Select the beta you would like to opt into:"

This is occuring on Windows 10 19033.

Edit: it appears you cant move the console to a new window either.

I'll continue to use this version until it's pushed to upstream, thanks for the beta!

But more importantly, i'm getting the following error when trying to connect to a private server, restarting did not help when I tried the beta. 0_1576860945274_d12894d9-192c-49cd-9535-b3d29a9b4c7b-image.png

It looks like this update has been pushed to live as well now, so I can't connect to any private server now with the official client

Now when I tried the beta, it worked for a while, untill it broke like this, then I swapped back to the official release instead of the beta, the game just updated now, and i'm stuck on this screen for private servers, I can connect to official fine.

  1. Download this https://dl.nwjs.io/v0.40.2/nwjs-sdk-v0.40.2-win-x64.zip
  2. Extract it to your Steam game client folder (something like C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Screeps) replacing existing files.
  3. Launch and open developer console (F12 or Ctrl+Shift+I).
  4. Reproduce the error and check the console output.

  1. Uninstall it from Steam.
  2. Remove the Steam game folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Screeps.
  3. IMPORTANT: Remove the folder %LocalAppData%\Screeps (like C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Screeps).
  4. Install it again.

Well, doing thoose steps, fixed it 🙂 guess we will never know what was wrong xD.

]]>http://screeps.com/forum/post/14654http://screeps.com/forum/post/14654Invalid Date<![CDATA[Reply to Steam client Chromium update on Invalid Date]]>@artch I've been swapping between a few private servers, but it's been below 10 servers or something I think? - but yeah, more research is needed 🙂

]]>http://screeps.com/forum/post/14655http://screeps.com/forum/post/14655Invalid Date<![CDATA[Reply to Steam client Chromium update on Invalid Date]]>If you need somebody else for debugging, I have the same problem.

]]>http://screeps.com/forum/post/14656http://screeps.com/forum/post/14656Invalid Date<![CDATA[Reply to Steam client Chromium update on Invalid Date]]>@duckymirror It would be interesting to check the local storage. If you install the nwjs-sdk version using the link above, it can be accessed as usual from the Developer Console / Application / Local Storage. Try to identify whether there are some items that seem too big and may exceed the allowed capacity.

I am having this same issue as well, and only have 1 private server I connect to (and also 3 community servers + MMO)

Error: Failed to execute 'setItem' on 'Storage': Setting the value of 'local:auth' exceeded the quota.

Looking at the storage, it appears that my current code (main.js) is stored at users.code.activeWorld, and every single change is logged to local:users.code.activeWorld I am unsure if this storage is searched, but of the 21 indexes it contains, 14 of them contain 650-700kb of data (main.js)

console log storage vars

I hope this information is helpful, if theres anything else I can provide let me know.

EDIT: As suspected, simply deleting the key local:users.code.activeWorld resolved this issue, however that is just a band-aid.

]]>http://screeps.com/forum/post/14659http://screeps.com/forum/post/14659Invalid Date<![CDATA[Reply to Steam client Chromium update on Invalid Date]]>We deployed a quick hotfix for that to Steam and will research it more carefully in future.

]]>http://screeps.com/forum/post/14661http://screeps.com/forum/post/14661Invalid Date<![CDATA[Reply to Steam client Chromium update on Invalid Date]]>I'm also not seeing the beta option.

I'm on MX linux (debian stable based).

I wished to try this version since I'm currently unable to open the developer console with any of Ctrl-Shift-J Ctrl-Shift-I Ctrl-Shift-C or F12

Maybe this isn't related to my issue, but I'm unable to try the beta in any case.
