There's a problem for settings

[gardevoir6424]

When i try to click on settings, it ended up crashing

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. When you say it crashes, do you get an error message of some kind? Could you copy and paste the error or screenshot it, perhaps? I'll try to see if I can find the problem, but for privacy reasons Puyo Nexus doesn't retain that many logs.

edit: When I tried to enter User Preferences from my account, it seemed to work just fine. When you say "settings", do you mean the user preferences, or some other settings?

edit 2: removed image that is unrelated. I thought this was a report about the Puyo Nexus Wiki, not Puyo VS, was not paying attention.

Oh dear, I thought this was the Puyo Nexus repository, I can now see that it is PuyoVS. Sorry for my confusing reply.

I am not sure why the settings dialog is crashing. Can you tell me what version of Puyo VS you are running and on which operating system? I can't promise I'll be able to diagnose the issue, but I'll try to take a look.

It is the nightly version

Can reproduce (Linux 7.0.5, Wayland, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed) when building on the current latest commit. It is most likely a consequence of #52 as now we are trying to guess whether we have assets in "." to the executable. Which may obviously fail when the path is illegal on the platform or when the path does not exist. Will go add proper exception handling, which I somehow forgot in the original implementation. Guess I haven't logged in a while, since it prompted me for the mandatory 2FA just now (thankfully by now I have migrated to KeePassXC.)

Addressed by #73. Please check that either the path of the executable or the installation folder contains the User folder with the corresponding structure. Currently at least ./User/Characters, ./User/Puyo, ./User/Backgrounds, and ./User/Sounds are expected for custom assets to be found, where "." means the folder where the executable is ran from. Alternatively populate the installation path (C:/Puyo) with the same structure (C:/Puyo/User etc.).

Additionally, seems to be a duplicate of #66, which should be resolved with this also.

I merged #73 and fixed the release so there should be a new nightly without this bug. Therefore I'm closing this issue. Let us know if it is still a problem.
