    Hello,

    I reported this problem on steam Interstellaria's Forum :

    After intro, I see a loading screen and games is not responding.
    The sound still plays, I can Alt+F4, but CPU seems holding 100% and nothing happens.

    Any clue ?

    I'm using a decent machine, with an arch linux that plays starbound without any problem.

      Someone on steam mentioned the same thing with their linux build. Let me run through it my machine a few times and see if I can hunt down the issue!

        Yeah, must be me on steam :)

        If I can help you with any log file, config spec or a hot beverage, please tell me.

            If you set steam commandline to

            LC_ALL=C %command%

            it works correctly

            I saw same problem in few other linux games, basically with different locale some functions work differently and things like number separators change. Also weekday names etc

            So for example "normal" locale uses "1.2173487" but in my locale (polish) it will be "1,2173487)

              Oh shoot, you're right.
              I've tried that, but I forgot the "%command%" part and it didn't worked.

              Well, great thanks to you, sir :)

              I can finally switch back to linux. Windows was getting on my nerves :D

                I saw that in few other games, seems to be common error when developing for linux

                you need to add %command% only if you add it before game executable

                    Thanks to you for addressing that issue.

                    Retried a new game without the custom steam command and I wasn't stuck anymore. You handled that very well.

                      Thanks guys, Got the same problem here.

                      LC_ALL issue seems to be common to a lot of games on Linux. Glad to have found a working solution.
                      @Coldrice, nice game by the way !
