Comment
The event fires when bot's position and/or view direction changes. The view direction change threshold is 5 degrees (thus, you won't get a notification if bot turns for less than 5 degrees).
The event is usually sent real time but can be postponed to avoid flooding your script with self_position event.
Example
console.log(`${process.name} started`);
Bot.on("self_position", (event) => {
console.log(`self position event:`, event);
});
