A compiled program runs only when launched from a root directory of a repository

Thanks for taking the time to fill out a bug report. If you want real-time support consider joining our Discord at https://melonbot.io/support instead.

Please note that this form is for bugs only!

Summary When I put an executable somewhere else in my $PATH (including /usr/local/bin/ as shown in the readme) it gives an error:

thread 'main' panicked at 'Failed to open icon path.: IoError(Os { code: 2, kind: NotFound, message: "No such file or directory" })', src/main.rs:283:14

when I looked at the code (although I know basically no rust at all, just some other languages) it appears to be that the code literally does that, looks from the root of the project

Steps To Reproduce

• run cargo build --release
• copy and paste an executable to any directory in your $PATH
• try to run from the terminal

Expected Behavior

• Everything runs well
