Add live 7tv emotes update

[2piotrek]

When someone adds a new emote on 7tv, it does not display and you have to restart the application. Please add live 7tv emotes update.

The feature exists, and at first glance should work, I would probably need help from you to test it.

Yesterday, during the stream, the moderators added new emotes and I had to manually refresh them each time to see them.

I have now checked when there is no stream and everything is working properly. Perhaps the problem only occurs when there is a stream, or perhaps the 7tv API was experiencing some issues at that time. I'll check it when the stream is on and let you know, maybe it was just a temporary problem.

I checked it today and indeed, during the stream, the automatic update of emotes from 7tv does not work. Without the stream, everything works fine.

I've been investigating this issue and found that while 7TV connections do occasionally close with code 1006 during extended usage, the reconnection mechanism appears to be working correctly.

In my testing (including the WebSocket connection infrastructure added in BP602@c29d8ec), reconnections are successful even when 7TV is temporarily blocked via firewall:

This suggests the underlying connection stability isn't the root cause of the emote update issue. The problem may be more related to emote cache invalidation or the timing of when new emotes are fetched during the reconnection process.

Solved the bug locally, but the problem is it would require users to reset their localStorage (all chatrooms).

We've been using chatroom?.channel7TVEmotes?.user?.id; to get the user id, however it's in chatroom?.channel7TVEmotes?.find((set) => set.type === "channel").user?.id as a result all new emotes added have been using user id undefined/0 in storage.

I believe this also causes #42 both using user_id undefined.

I will check it as soon as I have the opportunity. Generally, from what I have noticed before, the problem only occurred when there were a lot of messages per minute.

I checked it today and I think it works fine now.
Thanks for the fix

✅ Fixed in v1.1.8

Live 7TV emote updates are now working correctly with improved cache invalidation and connection handling.

Root Cause Identified:

• Incorrect user ID extraction from 7TV channel emote sets
• Was using chatroom?.channel7TVEmotes?.user?.id (undefined)
• Should use chatroom?.channel7TVEmotes?.find((set) => set.type === "channel").user?.id

Implementation:

• Fixed 7TV user ID extraction for proper emote set tracking
• Added emote cache refresh trigger on emote set updates
• Improved WebSocket connection stability and reconnection handling
• Applied in commit c7c3968 and related improvements

Available in: v1.1.8 release

Note: Users with corrupted emote cache from the previous bug may need to clear localStorage or re-add chatrooms to see the full benefits.

Thanks for the testing and confirmation! 🎉
