Linux Black Screen Bug When Hiding Client

Join Community

Summary

In BrickBit Community this announcement reports a Linux-specific bug where hiding the client then restoring it renders an empty black window and stops game rendering until closed. Tests showed Windows continues rendering while Linux does not. The thread covers reproduction notes, community testing, and debate about dropping Linux support versus tackling kernel-level anti-cheat complexity.
