Seems to be caused by #2357 as far as I can tell.

[DayBr3ak]

I knew I shouldn't have put that log line ! That's no problem, just add "map_object_cache_time": 5, in your config

[DayBr3ak]

and if that doesn't work, just comment the line

[JSchwerberg]

Workaround confirmed, thanks :)

[JSchwerberg]

Spoke too soon. Still getting the error more often than I should.

I'm getting this too, one commit ago it seemed to work perfect. Reverting back untill this commit is fixed.

[xSidewinderx]

Ya did git pull when I got on today, getting the same issue

[JSchwerberg]

PR #2388 submitted to resolve.

[fe-ax]

Why is it throttling that much anyway?

[JSchwerberg]

@marco208 That's Niantic's rate limiting...the problem isn't the throttle, especially now that MoveToFort is remembering what fort it was last moving past; the problem was honestly just the noise.

[hackenho]

Some people on the forums are reporting that Niantic has increased the throttled from 5s to 10s that's why you might see it that often.

[fe-ax]

Shouldn't we be more careful with hamering on the rate limiter?

[JSchwerberg]

You're on the [dev] branch -- careful is for [master] :)

[fe-ax]

That doesn't mean we shouldn't make the wait between actions adaptive to the amount of throttling the remote server gives us
