[SOLVED] Game suddenly stuck at menu screen (went away on its own)

Hey, this morning while mapping and opening xon in between builds, i noticed that the game was stuck at the menu screen after loading. The menu GUI elements themselves (singleplayer/multiplayer/settings) do not load, and the window becomes unresponsive (to close, I have to wait for the 'not responding' prompt or kill the process. When starting from console, Ctrl+C 
doesn't exit the game.
The problem started this morning, now every time i try to start the game it freezes like this.

Things i've tried, to no effect:

• move my .xonotic folder
  
• re-download the game and launch from newly unzipped download
  
• reboot
  
• run different executables (linux-sdl, linux-glx, even the windows exe with Wine)
  

Since this problem happened in the middle of mapping, a software update has likely not caused this.

My system:
Fedora Linux 44 with XFCE
Running Xonotic 0.8.6 pre-built, downloaded from the website: https://dl.xonotic.org/xonotic-0.8.6.zip

Console output of running the game: https://pastebin.com/raw/gs62j1dF
journalctl output while the game was running ($ ./xonotic-linux-sdl.sh): https://pastebin.com/raw/AdtkidFq

Thanks

I tried running the game now, and the problem suddenly went away and I can play. means i don't exactly NEED HELP anymore but i dunno about marking thread as SOLVED
