[BUG] Autodefer not always working

[JoinChang]

Describe the bug.

This happens when the command is not responded to for three seconds.

Example: https://autocode.com/autocode/threads/how-to-avoid-timeout-errors-when-responding-to-discord-interactions-tutorial-9f4b312c/

List the steps.

1. Create a slash command and listen to it
2. Create a time-consuming method
3. Command is processing, but few seconds later, Discord returns a new interaction
4. Library doesn't process the interaction normally, returned: Unknown interaction, with code '10062' and severity '40'

What you expected.

Should listen for timeout events.

What you saw.

Hey! This is a common issue with blocking code, which seems to fit in with what you just described.

Blocking code, like really long synchronous tasks (IE the one you described) tends to halt the async "event loop", the logic controlling async as a whole. As interactions.py is async, this means you are effectively halting it from being able to do anything.

For more information, you can look at the Pycord entry about this. You may need to run your code in an "executor," or rethink what you are doing in general to use more asynchronous means.

To increase time limit up to 15 minutes you should defer your interaction via ctx.defer

Thank you!

It still randomly returns this error:

Again, the issue is likely because your code is blocking - ctx.defer can't help out with that.

For further help, please join the interactions.py Discord server and use the help channel.
