I tried initiating a transaction, and I received this error message, "out of gas in location: WritePerByte; gasWanted: 1000000, gasUsed: 1006846: out of gas"

If you tried initiating a transaction and kept receiving the "out-of-gas-in-location" error message, please don't worry; there is a workaround.

When you are on the Kava app, after clicking the 'Supply' or 'Claim' button, the popup box will ask you to sign the transaction with 0.05 or 0.1 KAVA as the default amount; you can click the 'Advanced' setting to adjust the gas amount. Here are the screenshots with Keplr and Trust Wallet/MetaMask connected to the Kava app:

Then you can set the gas amount to 1,100,000 (0.055 KAVA) with the 'Low' amount selected as shown below:

The transaction should go through. If it doesn't go through, repeat the procedure above and adjust the gas amount to 1,200,000 by adding 100,000. If it still doesn't go through, you can add another 100,000, even though it doesn't happen often.

Important tip: Ensure you have at least 0.5 KAVA in your available balance to initiate your transaction.
