What did you try yet?

Did you try any method from the API? yes Did you try any example? Any error from those? yes

Your current code

const mineflayer = require('mineflayer');
const delay = require('delay');
const mineflayer_gui = require(`mineflayer-gui`);

var settings = {
    username: "",
    host: "as.minemen.club",
    password: "",
    version: "1.8.9",
    auth: "microsoft"
}

function sleep(ms) {
    return new Promise((resolve) => {
        setTimeout(resolve, ms);
    });
}

const bot = mineflayer.createBot(settings);

//bot.loadPlugin(mineflayer_gui);

bot.once("spawn", async () => {
    console.log('Logged in to as.minemen.club');
    bot.chat('/joinqueue as-practice');
    await sleep(1000);
    console.log('Joined as-practice');
});

bot.on('chat', (username, message) => {
    if (username === bot.username) return
    console.log(username, message);
});

bot.on('error', (e) => { console.log('Encountered an error: ' + e) });

Expected behavior

I want to login to the server and for the bot to type /joinqueue as-practice

Additional context

nope also my English is poor sorry!

Hello! i found a similar issue, Try commenting / deleting al bot.chat() I think it is a bug indeed!

When i try to send message i get:

TypeError: Serialization error for play.toServer : SizeOf error for undefined : Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'length') at Object.previousMessages (eval at compile (/Users/macbook/DonBotello/node_modules/protodef/src/compiler.js:258:12), <anonymous>:175:37) at Object.packet_chat_message (eval at compile (/Users/macbook/DonBotello/node_modules/protodef/src/compiler.js:258:12), <anonymous>:599:37) at eval (eval at compile (/Users/macbook/DonBotello/node_modules/protodef/src/compiler.js:258:12), <anonymous>:1187:64) at packet (eval at compile (/Users/macbook/DonBotello/node_modules/protodef/src/compiler.js:258:12), <anonymous>:1235:9) at CompiledProtodef.sizeOf (/Users/macbook/DonBotello/node_modules/protodef/src/compiler.js:89:14) at e.message (/Users/macbook/DonBotello/node_modules/protodef/src/compiler.js:96:40) at tryCatch (/Users/macbook/DonBotello/node_modules/protodef/src/utils.js:50:16) at CompiledProtodef.createPacketBuffer (/Users/macbook/DonBotello/node_modules/protodef/src/compiler.js:96:20) at Serializer.createPacketBuffer (/Users/macbook/DonBotello/node_modules/protodef/src/serializer.js:12:23) at Serializer._transform (/Users/macbook/DonBotello/node_modules/protodef/src/serializer.js:18:18) { field: 'play.toServer'

I tried but still the same error. I only get this error while connecting to minemen.club

[Olfi01]

I'm getting this error whenever I'm trying to send or receive a chat message

(in my case I'm trying it on a 1.19.1 server)

1.19.1 is not supported. Did you not see the pinned issue?

1.19.1 is not supported. Did you not see the pinned issue?

I did not, and I thought it was because the npm package page explicitly says it is 1.19 compatible.

It does support 1.19, but not 1.19.1+. There are some major differences with chat signing in particular

Can OP or anyone confirm this is still an issue on 1.8.9 with this server?
