Description

I have a div with the game id and I run this.this.voxel.appendTo(document.getElementById("game")) but I'm getting an error saying that document.getElementById("game") is not a Node. How do I fix this?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the browser call this.this.voxel.appendTo(document.getElementById("game")) with the reported game div, then inspect the voxel engine's appendTo entry point and the value returned by document.getElementById. Done means identifying why the argument is rejected as a Node and documenting or verifying the appropriate fix.
