Fixing mods for build 255
So I'm kinda stuck getting my mod running for the changes made in build 253, 254 and 255.
For build 253/254, hotloading just crashed my game everytime I made a change to a lua or shader file.
I somehow got the lua stuff to work but without hotloading, I always had to make a change and restart the game.
Is hotloading just broken or what do I miss?
For build 255, I just get random lua errors. And yeah, unfortunately, hotloading doesn't work too.
I removed every single line which loads a script of my mod and I'm just loading the ns2 Server.lua and Client.lua.
That's what I get:

If you changed or are overriding the Shared.lua file, it could potentially cause same problems. Unless you Server and Client files are identical to vanilla be sure they're loaded from your own client/server files.
But still, hotloading doesn't seem to work and just crashes my game. Am I the only one with this problem?
Same happens to me. Lua doesn't crash on occasion, but shader hotloading crashes me consistently.
