The Nuclear USSR [Version 7]

what

this isn't minecraft, this isn't terraria, this isn't a roguelike (oh wait nethack loads faster than this)
in fact the maps don't even look complex at all

you're clearly doing something extremely sluggish or just plain bad if a roguelike in which everything is random does a better job.
and uh, you're better off rewriting everything.

the loading time in the new version is about 8 secounds, Löviet

WHAT!? 8 WHOLE SECONDS?!, I modified your code a little and now it's below 1 second, even had it skip the mini game in the begining, You couldnt play it for very long so there was no point in keeping it. I would have to you what I did but Susan wanted you to figure it out yourself.

i may use this mini game in another mode in the game, and then reduce the loading time more but for now the loading will be 8 seconds

You do know loading time is usually spent LOADING stuff and not just ... nothing... right?
Also most people try to shorten (or even prevent!) loading times instead of just making one that does nothing.

Well during the loading time it checked for intersections in the map, to prevent overlapping.

Why not just do that once instead of every frame for 8 seconds? considering the average framerate is around 60 and 60*8 = 480 you could do all those updates once, they're not performance demanding or anything.
for i = 1, 480 do loading(1/60) end
