When using python code in renpy game, all modules in a package which is then places in the game directory must use package.module expression when importing, even if its local import. This is not how should importing work at all...

Moreover, only .py files will get loaded from game directory, not pyo nor pyc. So fix is to move them to renpy/ directory, but there, the importing is correct and package.module imports do not work anymore.

I think the need for package.module whenever the py files are used in game directory is a bug. And not working with pyc/pyo is bug as well.

Do you have an example of how I can repeat this?



You really shouldn't distribute game code as a pyo or pyc file. If your game is run under a newer version of Ren'Py (for example, a version that uses Python 2.7), it will stop working if it can't recompile the pyo or pyc files.

Hmm, found another bug, at least for me, if I want to load empty .py file, I get error on this line:
(loader.py 474)
Obviously, since empty file has no text, and having empty __init__.py is very common





Why is that an issue? Obviously we are not gonna store pyc files, we are only going to use them for the release. And people should not update renpy on their games as far as I know.
