RoboRunner freeze

Hi, could you help with your version of RoboRunner from github.

I use to use User:Voidious' version and was fine until several years ago. This year (2023) I tried to run it but it just freezes. Then I switched to your fork, it also freezes but at least produce some output to post.

I tried to run wit openjdk 11 and 17, the results are similar.

Side note I could gradle your version only with openjdk-11.

I suspect that it is all due to jdk change, since it also broke Voidious' version which use to work just fine. But I cannot spot what is wrong.

"My version" is also a little bit old, I will publish a recently updated one, hope that it can solve your problem.

thanks, looking forward to a new version

I updated the RoboRunner page to add the link to the fork. You can try and see whether it solved your problem.

Thanks. I already using and it it works.

Could you enable issues in your github repo, in case there are problems to report?
