v0.20 crashing more often?

[Big-J-Q]

Remember the blackout after reloading game I talked about earlier? I think this occurs more often in v0.20 than in previous versions.

I load the game, screen goes black and only the yellow pointer appears. The only thing I can do is ALT-TAB back to Windows and manually close the RTC, which produces an error message:

Error:
an access violation exception.

Stack Dump:
RTC.FreeModuleData();
RTC.RTC_DeInit();
RTC.WinMain();

I had this too JQ, but when I was expecting the restart screen....

See my bug report in the Bugs thread.

Basically, when fighting the ANt-Men (Ku path), my party would occasionally be instant killed. At the death screen, selecting Restart would sometimes (33%?) lead to the Black Screen.

Alt-F4 still worked. And sometimes (<20%) I would get a diag file.

I think the instant kills are all connected to the damage tile bugs (see the water elementals bug thread). Obviously, water elementals are moving around randomly all the time so as they hit the damage tile, the party is killed (that's the bug).

Fixed and will be in V0.21
