Can't express start

[oscarlevin]

Today I went into studio to try to hack away on my game and ran into trouble express-starting my game. I first thought I must have pushed bad code, but it seems to also produce an error when I tried to express start other games.

Here is the error I'm getting:

Unexpected error: Wrong formatted data from gameserver 2 (method: createGame): JSON_ERROR_SYNTAX
Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: implode(): Argument #2 ($array) must be of type ?array, string given in /var/tournoi/release/games/heartsoscarlevin/999999-9999/heartsoscarlevin.game.php:74 Stack trace: #0 /var/tournoi/release/games/heartsoscarlevin/999999-9999/heartsoscarlevin.game.php(74): implode() #1 /var/tournoi/release/tournoi-240603-1000-gs/www/game/module/table/table.game.php(357): heartsoscarlevin->setupNewGame() #2 /var/tournoi/release/tournoi-240603-1000-gs/www/game/module/gameserver/gameserver.game.php(167): Table->setupNewGameTable() #3 /var/tournoi/release/tournoi-240603-1000-gs/www/action/gameserver/gameserver.action.php(60): Gameserver->createGame() #4 /var/tournoi/release/tournoi-240603-1000-gs/www/action/gameserver/gameserver.action.php(68): action_gameserver->callClusterJob() #5 /var/tournoi/release/tournoi-240603-1000-gs/www/include/webActionCore.inc.php(185): action_gameserver->createGame() #6 /var/tournoi/release/tournoi-240603-1000-gs/www/index.php(310): launchWebAction() #7 {main} thrown in /var/tournoi/release/games/heartsoscarlevin/999999-9999/heartsoscarlevin.game.php on line 74

Anyone have any ideas?

The 'implode' error will be because they've changed the PHP version. As the error says, the first argument to implode() needs to be a separator string and the second argument has to be the array, whereas I believe it was the other way around in the old version, so I think you might have to swap them.

Inded, it's a consequence of the dev server being forced to PHP8.
