Zooming inconvenience bug

Post by MarkShot »

If the games ends, and you were in FIXED mode. You end up here:

When you go back to look from either side's perspective, you will be locked in FIXED mode and unable to disable it. Why? Because the FIXED mode button is gone, and there is no hot key. Of course, FIXEDmode = 0 when the game ends is what should happen.

This is more a nuisance than a serious bug as you still can do a save game. Upon loading the game, it seems that FIXED mode is no longer enabled.

good catch there with the fixed screen. Also note that sometimes the victory or defeat dialog doesn't display. I've tried to track this down and my guess is that its an issue with deprecated text routines in the code.
