Got it working! Thank you so much. This is such an awesome tool.

Something got messed up in your instance file or credentials file. most likely your instance file. The quick solution is to remove it completely from the instance/ folder and just restart the bot. You could also run the instance_invalid branch to print out more information regarding every write to the instance file to figure out what happened.

Did your PC/Server crash and then the bot stopped working?

Ok thanks - so I deleted the instances and now the bot is booting up but when I run npm start run this is the output:

Tried repairing to the server and am not having any luck. Is there a step I am missing? I do not have much/any coding experience..

Perhaps your credentials have expired. Try removing your current credentials with /credentials remove and then use the rustplusplus Credential application to get some new credentials
