Yes; the new EMC engine is based on an engine which does not support team mode out of the box (although it does know about a second player). > I dont think Holger is finished implimenting t...

Zomis, thanks a lot for your bug description -- although it seems that the bug is not directly reproducible, it will help debugging better than nothing at least. I don't think that it's SDL, as I haven't touched many things of the graphical representation layers. But I think that you're right with t...

OK, I just see that I managed to be exactly too late (as you two have just solved that problem)... ;-) But as I thought the main problem to be interesting, here are some bits anyway (replying to Alan's initial post): > I'm guessing (correct me if I'm wrong Holger) that the screen is drawn > and each...

asiekierka: Can you please describe the exact steps that I have to do to reproduce that crash on a Windows machine? I never encountered any crash neither in version 3.1.1 nor in version 3.2.0-6 on my Linux box (but I have tested 3.2.0-6 on a Windows XP system and had a crash there as described in th...
