Weird graphical glitch and ML/UE log

[16:17:23.449] [UnityExplorer] [Unity] Material 'BadMaterial' with Shader 'Unlit/Color' doesn't have a texture property '_MainTex'

I've seen this in my logs lately, pops up during fights, the colours in fights are a bit off. Like it says, it seems to be missing shaders and/or shadows. I don't edit anything in the sharedassets except the submarine texture2d and the corresponding sprite, replacing the submarine with a cogwheel in the tech tree. Also, I have run the game completely vanilla, by deleting all files manually and verified, no luck.

@NathanKell poking you here since you might perhaps know what this is(?)

hm.. seems to be the weather maybe. Just realized my last 20+ battles has always been nice weather, although  the weather info in top says otherwise. But even a completely unmodded game I get this. superduperweird

Just sounds like they're using a material that just has a color and no texture, and Unity is grouchy? Can't imagine that's actually causing the issues you describe.

Probably not. Its annoying though😑 ill keep digging

Well, apparently it fixed itself. Not sure how or why. Downloaded the beta, then went back to last optimized, and huzzah, all fine😝 Not doing anything different to the resource file than I have before.

Crisis averted I guess😬
