There is a CTD occasionally, when clicking on the ALL button in the bottom bar.
I come across this whilst trying to replicate the bombard CTD.

The sequence was something like this:
  1. Place a bombard order with the game paused.
  2. Deselect the bombard order by clicking on the map.
  3. Press the All button to close all Dialogues.
  4. Click All again to open them.
  5. Run the game
  6. Repeat 1 and 2
  7. Click on All button again
  8. CTD
There is also a strange white box that comes up briefly when the All button Dialogues are populating the screen, just before the 1FT Dialogue. (this was very hard to get a screen shot off!)
This may be part of the problem?

Note: I have all the Dialogue boxes open when playing the game except for the Briefing, and Supply.
This is a screen shot of my Open Dialogues.

Just in case you were wondering what the empty menu box is, its just the old wallpaper on my second monitor, that I use to get the dialogues back to the same place when I need to arrange them.
I should probably update it I guess :rolleyes:

That funny looking white dialog was the template for the EstabEquipment pane within the force data dialog. It was obviously taking its time to draw things for some reason. Normally it would happen so fast you wouldn't see it.

After the changes I have made today I cannot get this to repeat. I suspect this is the same issue as this other thread:

But it may not be. Need to monitor with the new build 5.0.12.
