The interact button is not working locally.

After deploying the project locally, I noticed that the "contact" button redirects back to the original interface after clicking it. Additionally, I observed that the code in the local project differs from the Live Demo.

I think I've found a solution https://github.com/a16z-infra/ai-town/issues/178

Do you still have issues? It should be a matter of configuring Convex locally. Or you can try to apply my branch that snips clerk for local testing. I have a branch that does session-based auth, but it's WIP rn

Hi bro, I still have a problem with the interact button after local deployment. It does not do anything. Do you know how we can solve it? The solution https://github.com/a16z-infra/ai-town/issues/178 does not seem to say how to solve it. Thanks.

Things to check:

• is convex/auth.config.js configured with clerk?
• have you set the process.env.CLERK_ISSUER_URL in your env variables for the dev / prod deployment?
• What are the values of clerk & convex authentication on the page?

Workaround:

• Check out the testing/interact-without-clerk branch for a version that doesn't use clerk and lets you interact (single player only)
