Re: lua / use error

 

so I used strace to watch what files it opens and here is the result :) :


open("/usr/share/games/widelands/tribes/atlanteans/scripting/sc00_headquarters_medium.lua",
O_RDONLY) = 11

Game data error
reading basic info for tribe "atlanteans":
[/var/widelands/tibor-ai5/src/scripting/lua_errors.h:29] [string
"tribes/atlanteans/scripting/sc00_headquarters..."]:5: attempt to call
global 'use' (a nil value)

Why is it? I believe it should touch only files in own directory...

I can uninstall distribution package of widelands, if it is the only way....
