ERROR - JavaScript onTick is not defined

[mahtande]

As title say.

It's a constant repeat until forced exit, and preventing getting past initial screen. (The screen with buttons such as "options" and "exit".)

From interestinglog.html:

Can you access the options? If so you can you try -

 

[mahtande]

Nope, can't access nothing as it's the "respond to click"-function (onClick/Click) which isn't found/defined in some of following:

gui/pregame/BackgroundHandler.js
gui/pregame/MainMenuPage.js
gui/pregame/mainmenu.js

Also, floating on top of the menu is constant repeat of the error... so can't really see any button but exit one. (See screenshot)

 

It doesn't seem linked to existing config/cache either; deleting those doesn't help and also tested the AppImage-version, which isn't official I know, and getting same issue with it too.

Wait why do you have an unlabeled version of Alpha 24?

You need to have 0ad-26* and 0ad-data26*

[mahtande]

Unlabelled a24? Doesn't sound possible; unless there's an issue upstream when packaging.

Here's what the package manager tells me:

# pacman -Ss 0ad
community/0ad a26-2 [installed]
    Cross-platform, 3D and historically-based real-time strategy game
community/0ad-data a26-1 [installed]
    Cross-platform, 3D and historically-based real-time strategy game (data files)

I could downgrade to 0ad a26-1 to match 0ad-data package, and I tried that too in fact, yet still same issue.

In the lower left there is "Alpha XXIV" but there should be "Alpha XXVI: Zhuangzi"

For me community/0ad a26-1 and a26-2 work.

The build date seems to check out though. There seems to be some overwriting going on.

Can you check if there any remnants of the old installation lying around in somewhere? An old mod or something perhaps.

[Stan`]

Yeah you might want to check what mods are enabled. you can do 0ad -mod=mod or edit the configuration file directly.

Had no mods installed at all, however - removing ~/.local/share/0ad worked out. Seems some file in there was messing things up.

Thank you!

Is there a way for users who started a thread to close it as resolved? Something easier than editing the title with some prefix, hopefully. It could help with keeping oversight on what is still open.

We don't like to close topics.

Uh, I was not aware of this, sorry. Thanks for pointing it out to me.
