RichLog doesn't want to render DataTable

When attempting to print a DataTable to RichLog, RichLog litterally prints "DataTable()" instead of rendering the widget. For reference, I followed this tutorial

The code in question:

 @property
  def game_screen(self) -> RichLog:
      return self.query_one("#game_content_view", RichLog)

 self.game_screen.clear()
  self.game_screen.write(text)

  if print_table:
      table = DataTable()
      table.add_columns(*cols)
      table.add_rows(enumerate((rows))
      self.game_screen.write(table)

To me, this appears to be very similar to the example code linked above. The cols, rows, and print_table values are valid.

When you say DataTable, do you mean the Textual DataTable widget? If so that isn't going to work. As the tutorial you point to says:

Call RichLog.write with a string or Rich Renderable to write content to the end of the RichLog.

A DataTable is neither a string nor a Rich renderable; it's a Textual widget.

Gotcha, thanks.
