without including most of the gamelogic, this is how my code works, manipulating an array of active game sessions to see who is playing what game, and if statements to give appropriate replies when they fail/win the game depending on the input

async function execute(interaction){
    let userId = interaction.user.id;
    let session = activeGameSessions[Object.keys(activeGameSessions).find(str => str == userId)];
    if (session == undefined) {
        session = await createNewSession(userId);
        interaction.reply('YO, Guess this word\n' + session.revealedWord);
        return;
    }
    
    let input = interaction.options.getString('string');
    console.log(input);
    if (!input) return;

    if (input.length > 1){
        if (session.attemptWord(input)){
            interaction.reply('GG, ig\n' + session.revealedWord);
            delete(activeGameSessions[userId]);

            return;
        }
        else {
            interaction.reply('Nope, stupid nerd\n' + session.revealedWord);
        }
    }
    else {
        if (session.attemptLetter(input)){
            interaction.reply('Les gooooo!!1\n' + session.revealedWord)
        }
        else {
            interaction.reply('Nope, bad letter my boy\n' + session.revealedWord);
        }
    }

    interaction.followUp(`Holy moly your lives are at ${session.lives} pepperoni`);
}

async function execute(interaction){
    let userId = interaction.user.id;
    let session = activeGameSessions[Object.keys(activeGameSessions).find(str => str == userId)];
    if (session == undefined) {
        session = await createNewSession(userId);
        interaction.reply('YO, Guess this word\n' + session.revealedWord);
        return;
    }
    
    let input = interaction.options.getString('string');
    console.log(input);
    if (!input) return;

    if (input.length > 1){
        if (session.attemptWord(input)){
            interaction.reply('GG, ig\n' + session.revealedWord);
            delete(activeGameSessions[userId]);

            return;
        }
        else {
            interaction.reply('Nope, stupid nerd\n' + session.revealedWord);
        }
    }
    else {
        if (session.attemptLetter(input)){
            interaction.reply('Les gooooo!!1\n' + session.revealedWord)
        }
        else {
            interaction.reply('Nope, bad letter my boy\n' + session.revealedWord);
        }
    }

    interaction.followUp(`Holy moly your lives are at ${session.lives} pepperoni`);
}

i am testing getting wrong letters in the game of hangman, but sometimes it works and gives me the proper response, and sometimes it just breaks and gives the aforementioned error

Because you're not taking advantage of async/await with your interaction responses like you are with createNewSession(). You aren't waiting for the Promise of reply() to resolve before then trying to follow-up, so now you're getting a race condition where you're sending the reply & follow-up at effectively the same time, You're getting inconsistent results because it's not certain which request will go through first

ahhh must have missed that while reading the documentation, and i am also to blame for not figured it out intuitively, thank you very much
