Describe the bug I was playing around with https://github.com/wfxr/minimap.vim and Neovide. I was clicking on the minimap and expecting Neovide to jump in the place where I clicked on the minimap. It kinda worked. I did jump but the jump seemed relative and more like fast scrolling to that direction. I wanted to quit and run :q - this is when I also got a panic.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Arch Linux
  • Neovide Version 0.16.2
  • Neovim Version NVIM v0.12.5 Build type: RelWithDebInfo LuaJIT 2.1.1788856981

Please run neovide --log and paste the contents of the .log file created in the current directory here:

Additional context I'm using my older .vim file and experimenting with the newer .lua config and neovide. The minimap was partly installed from AUR and partly via vimplug.
