Backup logs cut off at Unicode characters on Linux

April 19, 2022

I've been experiencing several long-standing issues with backup logs on Linux, and figured one of them out.

Note: no mods are enabled, but several are downloaded.
All of these cut off at the Chinese character in this line:

[00:00:01]: WARNING: icon paths for mod workshop-1952541249 (包裹记录) are not valid. Got icon_atlas="modicon.xml" and icon="modicon.tex".

Note that the logs themselves are perfectly fine; it only gets truncated when they are copied over to the backup directory.

This does not quite explain my other issues, such as most of my backup chat logs being blank and the remaining ones cut extremely short with no ending newline after a ': '. ($ is from my prompt)

Backup issues have also been experienced with server logs.

Steps to Reproduce

Play in-game and test out printing Chinese/Unicode characters, then check the backup logs.

Not sure how to specifically reproduce the other issues, it just happens after playing the game normally.
