Compiled .exe is changing execution behaviour when .lua source files are changed, without recompilation.

[null-circle]

I created a .exe using "rtc -s main.lua ." (static compilation, integrating the source files in the current directory into the .exe) resulting in main.exe. If the .lua source files in the directory are changed, the execution of main.exe changes to match the changes in the source files without recompiling the .exe.
If main.exe is moved into a different folder (so it is not in the same folder as the .lua source files) the execution behaviour reverts to the behaviour matching the source files at the time it was compiled.

It's not really a bug, as LuaRT module search starts first with package.path and package.cpath values.

If not found, the module is then searched in the executable embedded content.

Maybe I will modify this to search first for modules bundled with the executable.
