STONKS-9800: Stock Market Simulator not connecting to Comet #26
Comments

I found the issue, the game links to libraries with debug symbols. This makes it not work even on Windows if the user doesn't have dev environment setup
|
Thanks for figuring it out - sent an email to the dev just now describing the issue for them to fix it in a future patch. I will update the status on this issue when the game gets fixed with a patch. 👍 |
I already contacted the dev on discord as well. They'll look into the issue, it probably comes down to updating the GOG plugin in Gamemaker. |
I did notice new builds have been published (although without any response to my bug report e-mail from a while ago). Testing ver. I attached the captured log (with any (assumed to be) sensitive information like payloads and client information redacted) for the context. |
It looks like the game doesn't have achievements or at least it never loads them. Nevertheless the error is harmless in this scenario. It's part of the routine that syncs stats and achievements periodically. I think we should just add a safe guard that won't try to do that sync until the game loads the achievements list. |
Using a third party site to check GOG Achievements, there seems to be a list present but no known figures how many unlocked them (probably zero due to the lack of Galaxy achievement checking in the first place). Could also be still work-in-progress, as it's noticeably a lot shorter than its Steam equivalent achievement list. |
There is also a possibility that the achievement definitions will be retrieved only after an achievement has been unlocked. Now in theory everything should work properly. If you are going to play the game further, it may be a good idea to monitor the situation so we'll see if that theory is correct. In that case we'll report back to the game developer. EDIT: You can also check if achievements are even registered for that game, in your profile |
Context
During testing compatibility of several of my GOG library games, I did find another game (similar to Cuphead's previous status) that does not connect to GOG through Comet: STONKS-9800: Stock Market Simulator.
Issue Analysis
Similar to Cuphead previously, Comet wouldn't connect with the game. After installing
GalaxyCommunication.exe
in its prefix, it still did nothing. (No logs are made when having Comet running and starting or closing the game.)The game using an older GOG SDK seems unlikely, as the game is an Early Access game that started its first public release on GOG last year on July 17, 2023.
Looking in the game's files, some noteworthy files (and its MD5 hashes) are:
steam_api64.dll
Galaxy64.dll
GOG.dll
libGalaxy.dylib
