Thats right, No this isnt another one of my pre-emptive spammy reports, Ive actually SEEN them happen. For those of you not familier, Alt tab bug is when you alt tab out of the game, and it wont let you back in (Or just crashes), and que bug is when you que up alot of actions, and spring won't respond to you anymore.

How's this for another bug - shift sometimes gets stuck if you alt-tab! I had to press some random amount of keys to get it unstuck; i think i pressed shift and something else.

Some flag somewhere is not being checked properly...

... or rather find out exactly why & when these bugs happen and how to solve them, I wouldn't mind coding it in if only I knew that.

windows 64 bit is the answer

it has NEVER EVER EVER crashed for me EVER

i didnt know the build que and alt tab bug existed untill stupid 32 bit users started moaning!

(except thoes times when 50 percent of the players crash out of a game for no reason at all)

ALL UPGRADE!

The build cue bug only happens when I'm in a game hosted by australians and my ping is like 600 and I make..well a large cue obviously, but it seems to be ping related.

It may also be related to upload bandwidth. I was crashing nanoblobs games hosted by Quantum (who was on a 256Kb at the time) but queue cubes as small as 7X7. When I hosted (with 768Kb up) I could que things as big as 10X20 and not have the game crash. It would freeze for a second but not crash.

"Build queue bug" has nothing to do with queues. I don't build long queues in my playstyle (which I like to call "sucking") and I still frequently hit this bug. Just sometimes it just happens.

If one of your opponents/allies does it, it will crash as well.

Que? Isn't it queue? :P

no we actually mean pool cues that we use to build stuff with.
