Encountered while updating my mod to 2.0, a typo in the mod name in a image path caused the game to crash. Expected to have a dialogue that says that the file path is invalid.

Thanks for the report. Do you have the zenity utility installed on your distro?

It appears that SDL uses this to display error dialogs on Wayland.

Ah, I should specify that I use Steam via flatpak. I have zenity on my main system but I doubt it's exposed to the flatpak environment and probably isn't included in there. Still, I would expect the game to perform filename sanitization and use the usual mod loading error screen to indicate such errors.

I will look into making it an in-game error, but since it isn't already, I imagine it isn't entirely trivial.

I would imagine it's like a missing file error, which does work fine when the mod name is correct. Just a guess.

Thanks for the report.
Fixed for 2.0.10
