Description

# Describe the bug

I frequently need to generate the report twice for it to appear in the log. Also sometimes i stumble upon bugs that trigger `addr2line` that i feel with my `htop` and cooling fan, but no error pops up in the debug.log afterwards even though i haven't asked it to ignore anything.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue through the `Generate game report` action and compare the expected messages with `debug.log`, including cases that trigger `addr2line`. Done means the report and relevant debug messages appear reliably, or the missing logging behavior is otherwise explained and covered by an appropriate regression check.
