I’ve had several issues with my submission. Eventually decided to go with the standard bot and am now getting the following:
Downloading game engine
Downloading 2020.2.3.zip
Extracting zip: engine-f82521f6-dc3d-4a05-8fc3-179961ca6c39.zip

Seems to be an issue on the engine side. Please assist.
Thanks

Should the bot meta data not be in bot.json?
EDIT:
I’ve submitted my original bot. Seems the default wouldn’t work off the bat. I get the following which I’ve seen in other posts with no clear solution. I know that I the bot should be sending commands through. Could you please take a look. Thanks.

Been trying that and a host of other things thinking the problem is my submission. Also tried 2 more submissions today. No luck. Is the extraction process not controlled by you? Do you not check if it was successful before proceeding?
Thanks for the response. @floreggian_entelect has dm’d me with the logs as well showing that a dependency (Newtonsoft.Json.dll) could not be found. By adding that dependency in the Release and Debug directories and the netcoreapp2.0 directory has solved the problem. Its strange though as this is a dependency for the standard bot as well. I had also tried updating the dependency thinking that was the problem but it wasn’t. I also tried removing the file from the directories I thought wouldn’t be relevant (like Release) but the bot still failed when that was done. For now it is running. I hope you guys are able to sort the issue though. May be adding the dependency to your package locations may help:
“/root/.nuget/packages”,
“/usr/share/dotnet/sdk/NuGetFallbackFolder”
Thanks.
, that resolved my issue.
