Recent Add-ons bug on multiplayer macOS?
Wesnoth 1.6.11 on macOS Sonoma Steam
I'm frequently playing with a friend Ultimate Wesnoth Survival add-on. A month or so ago the following problem started only on mac:
When I Join official server, Create, Ultimate wesnoth survival - pvp race I get ERROR Failed to load scenario
On load an existing game, I get: ERROR Mandatory WML child missing yet untested for. Please report.
After that error, all Add-ons disappear from Create game (last available scenario listed is 9p - Merkwuerdigliebe)
Other observation: Ultimate wesnoth survival pack in add-ons has None for Dependencies, Website and Translations (only on Mac, on windows it's good).
I am able to create and load a local game though but I don't want to play solo.
I've read the guidelines for bug reporting but if I enter that command to write logs on Steam command then the game will not start.
I searched the forums for the add-on to find its thread but there seem to be none (except one where some guys praise it).
This happens on an intel Mac and on a different Apple silicon one. (All good on windows)

Clear cache and reinstall addon.

Re: Recent Add-ons bug on multiplayer macOS?
Clearing the cache doesn't work obviously since I've mentioned that I installed the game fresh on another Mac.
Here's a screen recording.

The one in the guide for Mac Steam: %COMMAND% 2> ~/wesnoth.log
With this the game won't start.

Re: Recent Add-ons bug on multiplayer macOS?
Can you try running it from the console?

Re: Recent Add-ons bug on multiplayer macOS?
I've never used macOS, so I don't know - maybe you need to use the standalone dmg?

Thanks Iris, that worked. But outputting to a log file doesn't.
Anyway I grabbed the output from the terminal "manually". The full log is attached.

Re: Recent Add-ons bug on multiplayer macOS?
That's really bizarre - I don't know what could cause that. If it didn't know what it was, it should exist to be selectable in the first place.
