Hello, I'm doing some testruns on a game, I did a lua script; but when loading a savestate, the lua loads the value of the frame before I loaded. And even without lua, the status doesn't update, example I turn Read+Write mode on a movie I have to press frame advance for getting Read+Write turned on.
Current: Rayman 3 maybe? idk xD Paused: N64 Rayman 2 (with Funnyhair) GBA SMA 4 : E Reader (With TehSeven) TASVideos is like a quicksand, you get in, but you cannot quit the sand

For the former, it's an annoying bug regarding the lua display which I got through by loading a savestate 2 frames before the value for the frame I want. For the second bug, are you sure it's a bug with the status or a display bug? If you turned on Read+Write, would it toggle it on in the menu bar as well but not the gui?

VBA's Lua is known to have broken savestating. In other words, it produces inconsistent savestates which may result in desync.
