Spring RTS Engine

There was player in chat who had only very small buildmenu, like this:

It was because his \LuaUI\Config\BA.lua was 0 kb
Appearently empty BA.lua makes LuaUI crash:http://pastebin.com/giGeKGpJ

Yes - this is a known bug (the build menu in the pic is the spring default). It started happening post 91 & not before that. It's never happened to me (or any other BA devs or, as far as I know, to anyone who could work out what caused it). It seems to happen randomly to only a small set of people. Got any ideas?

Maybe I'll just make a patch for the widget handler.

or just find out why an empty ba.lua crashes what and fix THAT bug. There will always be a luaiu crash that can take down your luaui, better to find those bugs silentwings.

Fixed the widget handler: http://imolarpg.dyndns.org/trac/balatest/changeset/1199

But if you ever find out what made BA.lua blank, let me know.

Probably the same thing that wrecks/modifies BA.lua config after every single game for some people, no?

Possibly - from the people who reported this too me, I was told it's intermitent and rare. I've not heard of something that happens every game.

My config file has never had anything strange happen to it. If anyone can reliably reproduce whatever makes their BA.lua go blank, I'd be grateful to know how.

Looks like abma fixed default handler: http://git.io/AY0f5g
