    @thmsn This looks very strange. Please try to make a full clean reinstall of the game:

    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.

    @thmsn I believe you connected to so many different private servers that have exceeded localStorage capacity for auth credentials in Chromium somehow, and the new Chromium may have lower capacity, we need to research that.

  • @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 🙂


  • If you need somebody else for debugging, I have the same problem.

    @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.


  • I get the same error as @MaZDuR.

    We deployed a quick hotfix for that to Steam and will research it more carefully in future.


  • 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.

    @omnistegan This branch is now default, the beta is deactivated.
