Engine Scan Mode Loop Can Freeze Program

Daniel H. · Post by **Daniel H.** » Sat Jun 03, 2006 11:31 pm

If you make an infinite loop out of setting the scan engine repeatedly in opposite directions,
then the program will freeze up.

I don't know how important or fixable this is, though...

Could you please provide me with a little test level?
(Please make that level as simple as possible.)

That would make fixing this bug a bit faster and easier for me... :-)

DANGER

Play this level to freeze Rocks 'n' Diamonds.

Please note that the author of this level will not take any responsibility for the damage of hardware of software by running this level. By clicking on the link above, you understand that Rocks 'n' Diamonds running this level reliably freezes Rocks 'n' Diamonds on a personal computer by hogging the Central Processing Unit. IF YOUR PERSONAL COMPUTER OR ITS ATTACHED HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE HAS TROUBLES WITH THE LOW AMOUNT OF CPU OR MEMORY GIVEN THAT IT SHOULD CRASH, BREAK, OR BE DELETED, YOU WON'T complain to me about it.

Thanks a lot! We are all doomed now! (Wish I were color-blind... ;-) )

Just checking this issue...
