Crash when trying to join multiplayer game.

Meateater · October 16, 2023

Hi!

Trying to play together with my daughter but when I host a game and she tries to join, her game throws a few lines with errors and never starts. Everything works fine in the lobby, she can see me and the game and chat works too. Also, she can play the game in single player mode.

I took a screenshot when the lines with error shows. "Insert image from URL" does not seem to work so I'll post the link to the screenshot here instead https://ibb.co/dg9hj6s

She runs Ubuntu 22.04lts and the game is installed using snap. (I run PopOS and .deb install)

I had a look at crashlog.txt and it looks like this:

Assertion failed: "!m_Worker"

errno = 9 (?)
OS error = ?

I also had a look at interestinglog.html and it says this:

I also began to open oos_dump.txt but changed my mind when I noticed the size

Not sure what to do now. Should I reinstall the game but choose the .deb version instead of flat version? I checked the permissions but they looked good but you never know.

It's likely the same error as this one:

What? It has no error messages in common with that one. We can check into the possibility, but I don't think it's likely.

I'm talking to MeatEater on IRC about this right now.

The JS error doesn't seem to be matched.

UPD.

A similar error was fixed here: https://trac.wildfiregames.com/ticket/6433

Meateater · October 17, 2023

Hi Vladisslavbelov,

I'm checking out the 6433 ticket you mentioned and Norse_Harold gave me some really good pointers yesterday. However, I didn't manage to solve the problem so I reinstalled the game using .deb instead.

This is what I've been doing now.

1. Located public.zip and extracted TitleDisplay.js

2. Modified line 11 by adding the config mentioned in ticket 6433.

/**
 * This class choses the title of the loading screen page.
 */
class TitleDisplay
{
    constructor(data)
    {
        let loadingMapName = Engine.GetGUIObjectByName("loadingMapName");
        loadingMapName.caption = sprintf(
            data.attribs.mapType == "random" ? this.Generating : this.Loading,
            { "map": translate(data.attribs.settings.mapName || data.attribs.settings.Name) });
    }
}

TitleDisplay.prototype.Generating = translate("Generating “%(map)s”");

TitleDisplay.prototype.Loading = translate("Loading “%(map)s”");

3. Copied the modified TitleDisplay.js to /usr/share/games/0ad/mods/public

Unfortunately, I got the same error

ERROR: JavaScript error: gui/common/l10n.js line 69
Script value conversion check failed: v.isString() || v.isNumber() || v.isBoolean() (got type undefined)

Harold asked me about mods yesterday and I didn't see any. However, today, looking at the .deb installation, there is a file called mod.json in the same public folder. Don't know if that can be a problem. It looks quite empty.

{
    "name": "0ad",
    "version": "0.0.26",
    "label": "0 A.D. Empires Ascendant",
    "url": "https://play0ad.com",
    "description": "A free, open-source, historical RTS game.",
    "dependencies": []
}

Harold also mentioned that the problem can be on the other side, on my computer. Because we noticed that if my daughter hosted a game, my computer game crashed instead, with totally different errors. That is for sure pretty darn strange.

I did a mistake!

I forgot to create the folders gui/loading/ !

Now it works :wub: :banana: :brow:

Thanks a lot for all the support, especially Norse_Harold that patiently guided me via MIRC last night and ofcourse Vladislavbelov for pointing to the solution!

It delights me to be able to play 0AD together with my daughter.... ON LINUX! :victory:

Hopefully this thread can be to some help to someone else.

**Norse_Harold** · October 17, 2023

I'm glad that it's working now. Is there a specific map that was triggering the symptoms, or did they happen regardless of the map?

Meateater · October 18, 2023

Before editing the file, we tried:

-Two or three different maps.

-Switched to Language=English(US).

-Setup a multiplayer match without AI(Petra)
