Problem with quota in disk

[yhojann-cl]

I have installed War Robots game (app id 767560) and i have configured the high quality graphics option but I get a message indicating that 5.93gb of additional hard disk space is required for download additional data, it is strange because I have more than 40gb free. I have tried to install on another disk but I have the same result. The installation is being done in the default directory of steam libraries.

Steam through proton assigns a special quota of maximum space allowed per game or something similar?, how can I diagnose the problem?

My system:

• OS: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
• Disk: Primary disk with 120GB (61% free).
• Proton version: 7.0
• Size of game: 3.27GB
• Size of HD graphics content: 5.93GB

Are you using snap/flatpak version of Steam or "native"?

Another thing that might be if Steam is confused about libraries on another disk which might have less space (trying to use temp on wrong drive).

Hi, i use steam from apt:

whk@machine:~$ apt list --installed | grep steam

WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in scripts.

steam-devices/jammy,jammy,now 1:1.0.0.74-1ubuntu2 all [instalado, automático]
steam/jammy,now 1:1.0.0.74-1ubuntu2 i386 [instalado]
whk@machine:~$ which steam
/usr/games/steam

The game is installed on main hard disk.

Another thing that might be if Steam is confused about libraries on another disk which might have less space (trying to use temp on wrong drive).

Yes have two libraries folders, in the main hard disk and external disk, but the game is installed on main disk library.

On Ubuntu 21.04 LTS works fine, but in 22.04 can download the additional content, but i can download steam upgrades, that's why I think the problem is proton and not steam.

No problems in temp folder:
