OK, interesting. I'll try reverting to the slower rendering until after the game timer is running.

The new rendering gives faster framerates but tends to hog the entire CPU, which possibly causes these issues.

Send a personal messsage to *Speedealer*

I had some crashing last night too, except it would happen after the move turn and immediately at the beginning of the firing turn. It may have had something to do with frame rate, but it was working for a while, then just stopped. I had to eventually restart my computer too since everything froze up. So that cpu hogging makes perfect sense

Next time, I will check my istat widget too see cpu usage

It happened again to Speed 3 or 4 times in a row.
Each time at the end/beginning of a turn.
He seems to think it always happen in the southern part of the Somerset's map.

Last disconnection/freeze(?) he experienced, it was looting time and he couldn't access the looting screen.

The very first time it happened to him, Toecutter was also bounced off the lobby at the exact millisecond, so it must be North-American connection problem.

I also had a frozen screen myself and will check logs.

Just figured out the past events shown in my gang are also listing events I was not present in... they are here just listed because I'm part of a squad that participated in that event. :stare:

I've been scared a second to forget I was playing so much...
