I confirm that this problem for plug-in cheat. No problem for built-in cheat though.
The following message is printed when start the game.

Code: Select all

[LUA ERROR] in execute_function: plugins/cheat/cheat_xml.lua:21: attempt to index a nil value (local 'str')

And line 21 (to 48) in denjinmk.xml (official 0.221 package) is...

Code: Select all

Perhaps xml parser for plug-in cheat fails to interpret "comment out tag" with this format.

Anyway, I suggest 3 ways to solve it.

Use built-in cheat (It's very simple but easy fix)
Delete the above "comment out tag" lines from denjinmk.xml.
Replace your cheat package with 0.187 (Release Date: 7th July 2017) without the above "comment out tag" lines.

But I check in 0.238 (the latest version in this time) and not test in 0.195 (I think no longer support this version though) so that this problem will be not solved by the above ways.

I did this and works. Thanks for the help.
