Crashes on startup (Arch, CachyOS)

First time, it crashed with 

error: Uncaught (in promise) Error: Could not open library: Could not open library: libwebkitgtk-6.0.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

A quick 

sudo pacman -S webkitgtk-6.0


fixed that. 


Then it opens a blank window, and the log is full of errors: 

(WebKitWebProcess:2): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 13:15:29.892: invalid (NULL) pointer instance
(WebKitWebProcess:2): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 13:15:29.892: g_signal_connect_data: assertion 'G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE (instance)' failed

Static file error for /textures/buildings/industrial/default_a.jpg: NotFound: path not found: stat '/tmp/deno-compile-microlandia/dist/client/textures/buildings/industrial/default_a.jpg'

You can keep my $2, but I would like to try the game sometime :)

It looks like something that can be fixed... I am looking into it right now... if it's possible, can you add more logging context? since you started the game till you see the blank page.

Hi we just fixed a bug where in some installs, the database directory was not created. Hopefully the new build is working for you :)

Maybe you are missing the gstreamer library. Does this command work for you?


sudo pacman -S gstreamer gst-plugins-base gst-plugins-good gst-plugins-bad gst-plugins-ugly gst-libav
