Chaingun pickup in map7 (17?) crashes to Desktop on Steam Deck

Issue #310 duplicate
Former user created an issue

Hi,
i'm using Luxtorpeda which AFAIK is at ECWolf 1.4.0 on my Steam Deck (Steam OS stable channel).

The savegame says MAP17 - Wolf2
Map7

(which is it? 17 or 7?)

i found a specific Chaingun (just the one) that results in the game instantly closing and throwing me back to the SteamOS Desktop.

Savegame is in the attachment.
You just walk over the gun in front of you.

I tried loading the save with the Windows (x86) version on my Win10 PC to see if it happens on windows as well, but ECwolf doesn't see the savegame at all... i'm not sure if i'm doing something wrong (i hope this is the right file, i was looking all over) or if the savegames of the different OS builds are just incompatible to begin with.

(off topic: i also noticed another glitch that happens quite often where the screen turns RED after you get killed but after respawn it just stays red. I can work around this by shortly returning to the main menu, but i'm sure you noticed that one by now, this happens on both Steam Deck and Windows PC... i don't need to make another ticket for that, do i?)

    ECWolf is a bit overly picky about loaded files when it comes to save games. They are cross platform but you might need to use the --foreignsave option at the command prompt to tell ECWolf to ignore the differences.

    This bug has been reported a couple times in the last few days, and confirmed easily reproducible. See #308.
