Ubuntu, can not reset environment with steam turning on. about dotaservice HOT 7 OPEN

Thanks for you report, I'll look into it. Some observations:

• You can only run 1 instance of dota at the same time
• In order to render the dota GUI, you need to have steam on (so it can find the steam DLL)
• Running Dota dedicated (without rendering) without having steam on will result into warnings that can be ignored, it doesn't actually use.

That doesn't help your issue though does it? You also list "Observe:: cout (..) Observe:: cerr" what are those?

1. Yes, i only run one instance.
2. When the steam is on, it will load stem DLL. I think the problem may caused by this. E.g. New steam DLL doesn't match cause DOTA_GAMERULES_STATE_PRE_GAME failed?
3. Without steam on, i can get the world state successfully.
4. I think the "Observe:: cout (..) Observe:: cerr" is come from the Observe function in dotaservice/botcpp_dire.cpp. I compile this file and copy the .so to dota/scripts/vscripts/bots/ to load when init bots.

By the way, the logs with steam on print a lot of "FS: Tried to Write NULL file handle!", which i think is just warning and should not influence other jobs. Doesn't check.

I guess the block may caused by loaded steam DLL. Since this is one difference between the logs of with and without steam on that i found. I didn't find other difference until now.

Interesting. How did you compile the botcpp_dire.so? Command and compiler v?

Use this command g++ -shared -o botcpp_dire.so -fPIC botcpp_radiant.cpp. Same as shown in dotaservice/botcpp/README.md

That cannot be the right command. You're missing includes.. Anyway I think I figured that part out.

I am not quite understand what to includes? Do you mean protobuf? I already exported it. It did not show any warning or error during compiling.
Besides, these .so can work when steam is off. Maybe the bot .so is not the problem?

I can confirm steam only needs to be turned on (or even installed!) when you want the graphical interface. It runs fine on a docker container without steam..
