Searching for bugs to reproduce

Hey, I'm currently developing a tool to reproduce glitches and bugs in games made with LÖVE by using genetic algorithms to generate input sequences.

Currently I'm searching for bugs or glitches that developers and testers have been unable to reproduce in order to test the effectiveness of the tool.

The tool generates an input sequence that reproduces the bug in question, so if I'm able to reproduce a bug in a game I would give these input sequences to the developers for further investigation.

This is the repository of the tool https://github.com/tomyahu/GA-LOVE2D

Well, this is already solved, but if you want a real test case, you can try the code in this thread: https://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=87373

I had to make an event and dt recorder in order to be able to reproduce it reliably, because it depended on dt and the exact inputs.
