Hi,

1. Going by the Steam Subscriber Agreement's section on "Restrictions on Use of Software" it could be argued that using tools built with libraries such as node-dota2, node-steam, SteamKit (etc) - which are derived from reverse-engineering Steam - do indeed violate the Steam Subscriber Agreement. That said, Valve are pretty friendly with modding in general and I think they understand the value such tools can bring to Steam and their games' ecosystem, but ultimately I think it's at Valve's discretion, you should be careful not to do anything that might be considered abusive or detrimental to Steam and/or Dota 2. As such, I can't and don't give any sort of guarantees that an account will not be banned/sanctioned in any way because of usage of node-dota2.

2. I have no experience with this, but googling for "nodejs to exe" brings up a fair few results. Have a play around with the solutions from searches and see where that gets you.

3. You could have a web interface and use web sockets, otherwise I'm sure there's CLI stuff you can do. Again, this is best left to searching - I'm probably of little help here.

To run your script simply input node ./script.js.

Thanks you for your awesomely fast answer.

I would like to know how could i investigate more on this 3) since im new to programming this is kind a, do and learn project im doing.

So far from what i understand, this is an application that sends some packets to dota2 servers, and handles the answers.

What i would want to do is: Normally execute the script + be able to send him new commands.

So i could imagine this like a chat ? Where first server is gonna exceute when i login to it and then gonna exceute what ever i send him ?

---

Going like this, i found out that a could idea could be sending messages through Steam chat, as instructions to be executed on serverside :)
