I was playing Minetest for about 20 mins, when that popped up in the debug, and Windows gave me that annoying popup with the message saying Minetest main engine has crashed. IDK if it is reproducible.

Also, I have seen this path at the top before (/home/stefan/...). I kinda would like to know what it means, though I have a pretty good idea... (BTW: It is not mine, I can tell you that)

It's the location of the source file when it was built. Linux, and Unix, use /home/username instead of c:\\users\username.

See if the problem persists with another build. Also, it helps if we can reproduce the bug via a list of steps, bugs where you can't do that are harder to solve.

That is what I thought... I do have a Linux machine, and I use terminal as my way of getting around, since I am doing a lightweight Slackware build, so I know of that. I just had the feeling that the path was a developer's computer's path. I just wanted to clarify.

And as I said in an earlier post, this happened after a few 20-30 mins of playing. Anyhow, I will give it a shot later...
