This is related to #68 & fixes wrong refunds being issued after process restart.
I got bitten by this bug on https://steemit.com/@noicebot/transfers, during last 10 days it refunded many users twice. Problem seems to be that when process is killed/restarted,
state.json
isn't saved.Thus, I think it's good idea to save current state before bot is stopped. This works when it is gracefully closed eg.
Ctl + C
,kill
etc (but not when doing force quit)I also had to change to
fs.writeFileSync
otherwise process exits before write is complete.
