Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Here are some common issues you may encounter when using the RACE JS SDK and guidance on troubleshooting them:

• Connection Errors:

  • Check the Transactor endpoint: Ensure that the endpoint URL provided during initialization is correct and accessible.

  • Verify network connectivity: Make sure your client application has a stable internet connection.

  • Inspect error logs: Check the browser console or server logs for any error messages related to the websocket connection.

• Game Bundle Loading Errors:

  • Verify the game bundle address: Ensure that the game bundle address is correct and the bundle is published on the blockchain.

  • Check decentralized storage accessibility: Make sure the decentralized storage solution (e.g., IPFS, Arweave) is accessible and the game bundle data can be retrieved.

  • Inspect WASM loading errors: Check the browser console or server logs for any errors related to loading or executing the WASM game bundle.

• Event Handling Issues:

  • Verify event listener registration: Ensure that you have correctly registered event listeners using the onEvent function of the AppClient or SubClient.

  • Check event data format: Make sure that the custom events you are submitting are serialized correctly and match the format expected by the game handler.

  • Debug game state updates: Use console logs or debugging tools to inspect the game state updates in response to events and verify that they are happening as expected.

• Decryption Errors:

  • Verify secret keys: Ensure that the player has the correct secret keys for decrypting the revealed hidden knowledge.

  • Check decryption logic: Review the decryption logic in your client application and ensure that it is implemented correctly.
