Topic: Post bugs which should be fixed in build21

Umm, that's still confusing, but I tried to test it.

I installed the linked 64-bit build on a Windows 7 64-bit system. The --homedir option works: a directory is created at the specified location; log, settings and saved games are saved there. A directory containing spaces works too, if enclosed in quotation marks as follows:

widelands.exe "--homedir=C:/Users/nth/Desktop/with spaces"

Forward slashes and back slashes in the path both work.

A directory containing non-Latin characters like ą or 月 does not work properly; Widelands creates files with mangled names. The system I tested this on is set to Japanese locale, it might be a factor.

As for the translations, the linked installer installed the translations too. If I delete the locale directory from the data directory, the error described in the bug is displayed. If I delete all files from the locale directory but leave the (empty) directory itself, there's no error. This is unrelated to whether the --homedir option was used or not.

--localedir doesn't seem to work. It always looks for the translation files in the default location, no matter what I pass to it.

I´m unable to start a campaign in current master. When I click Campaigns in the main menu, I get an…

Unexpected error during the game
[../src/graphic/image_io.h:35] Image not found: images/ui_fsmenu/hard.png

(using unofficial-git-625e56ba13 (Release))

Is this just something wrong with my git checkout or a bug?

When I build latest Widelands with XDG enabled (which is the default now), it tries to use the datadir from /usr/share/widelands (the datadir from Build 20 installed via the Manjaro's package manager) and fails to run, spitting out some Lua errors. I have to use the --datadir switch to keep it from doing that. Not sure if a bug or working as intended, but it took me a while to figure out what was wrong.

That's definitely a bug. https://github.com/widelands/widelands/issues/3490

If there is a ~/.widelands dir already present, it should use that and only switch to XDG mode if there isn't.

No no, it's not a problem with the ~/.widelands directory (with settings, saved games, etc.); it does use that just fine. The problem is that it tries to use the data directory (the one with images, music etc.) from an older version installed from the distro's repositories, instead of the one located together with the widelands executable (where it was compiled).

Can you show us the "some Lua errors"?
