Balloon crashes ashita addons plugin on "..." or "......" during cutscenes

[xythrez]

Ashita API Ver: 4.16 (Git commit 4f0c5f20d7bf270608c529af74c48e85b3580bfb) Balloon ver: 4.0.2

Other loaded addons (shouldn't matter, confirmed crash is reproducible with only balloon loaded):

• fps
• move
• drawdistance
• allmaps
• tcrossbar
• hxui
• zonename
• nomount

Steps to reproduce:

• Enter any story cutscene where a character says "..." or "......".
• The cutscene dialogue must consist of only dots. Cutscenes with "Speaker : ...... blah blah" or "Speaker : ...!?" are fine.

Expected result:

• Addon should show a text box with the said text

Actual result:

• AshitaV4 addons plugin immediately crashes, causing it to unload all addons

Logs listed below:

settings.lua:

require('common');

local settings = T{ };
settings["position"] = T{ };
settings["theme"] = "default";
settings["scale"] = 2;
settings["position"]["y"] = 1918;
settings["position"]["x"] = 1924;
settings["portraits"] = true;
settings["no_prompt_close_delay"] = 10;
settings["display_mode"] = 2;
settings["text_speed"] = 100;
settings["move_close"] = true;

return settings;

Thanks for the detailed bug report, it's really appreciated! I have some ideas about what might be the cause but I can't look into it until tomorrow. I'll get a fix out asap.
