Mod assets not loading correctly on linux.

March 13, 2021

Fixed

All images and animations won't load on linux, the log shows:

[00:00:23]: Could not load atlas ../mods/DST_CaptureTheFlag/
[00:00:23]: Could not load texture ../mods/DST_CaptureTheFlag/
[00:00:23]: AnimationFile::LoadFile Failed to open ../mods/DST_CaptureTheFlag/

as you can see the file names are missing!

the bug can be bypassed by doing:

local Assets = {
    Asset('ATLAS', 'images/ctf_crafting_tabs.xml'),
    Asset('IMAGE', 'images/ctf_crafting_tabs.tex'),
}

if not TheNet:IsDedicated() then
    RegisterPrefabs(Prefab('MOD_NAME_ASSETS', function() end, Assets, nil));
    TheSim:LoadPrefabs({ 'MOD_NAME_ASSETS' });
end

so I know the loader works and the error is somewhere else in the code.

Steps to Reproduce

Start the game in linux, look at the logs.
