I have the same error/issue... have you found a solution yet?

Me too. Can't change the World Axis, which is a shame as this could be a useful tool.

Hello.  I had this problem also.  I found the cause and a workaround.

It is because in the scripts, the variable "bt_moveSpace" may not yet be set or exported.

Once you open the Bonus Tool windows called "Modify > Offset Transforms..." and close it again, the "bt_moveSpace" variable is exported, and the axis starts to work again in "Modify > Stack / Align Objects..."

When this problem was posted I guess the script for Offset Transforms was also broken.  I am using the tools version released a few days ago that is also compatible with Maya 2022, so perhaps Offset Transforms is now fixed, and means you can now also fix Stack / Align yourself...
