It's a problem with Luajit

Hello! Thanks for submitting this issue!

Did you use the version from itch.io or did you clone the repository and run the game from source with LÖVE? If it was the latter, what version of LÖVE did you use?

From what I read in the link you passed, this might be a problem outside the code of Backdoor, but I'm still trying to understand how to circumvent the issue.

Thank you.

I compiled the releases/tag/v0.6.0 . OS: Archlinux/Manjaro-ARM (aarch64) love version: 11.3

Hi,

I'm on Arch as well (not Manjaro though) and it works fine. Could you provide your pacman -Qi luajit output, please?

I wasn't aware there was a backdoor AUR package. I have just tried it out and it built and ran fine. It seems you chose the luajit-git AUR package instead of the official luajit package. If there are no other reverse dependencies or personal reasons to have luajit-git, I would suggest trying the pacman version of luajit.

[bl00dy1837]

Thank you. But in the Archlinux/Manjaro ARM repositories is the luajit Version "v2.1.0.beta3". https://archlinuxarm.org/packages/aarch64/luajit-git

Did you build you older luajit version on your own? With which version did you test?

[RenatoGeh]

As I said, you're running luajit-git, which is the git version of luajit. This package compiles from the git repo source and is more prone to bugs. I imagine that's the source of your problems - the latest beta version is probably the cause of this bug. I'm assuming you're using ARM64 from your comments; a quick search shows that the ARM64 package repo only has luajit-git instead of the official luajit package you normally get through pacman. Probably because ARM is not 100% supported by Arch.

That said, I suggest you do the following: download your luajit-git's tarball, manually edit its PKGBUILD so as to point to the master branch (and thus get the stable version), and finally install using makepkg -si. This should solve this issue.
