Problem related to Maria and Victoria Scenario...

Finally figured it out....it would work, and then not work....
OK..If when I am running the Maria and Victoria Scenario, I change the message log options so that contact changes will "pop up"...BOOM! (no, not a torpedo explosion, a program crash). Tried it two or three times. And if you start the scenario with that message option, crash....
This may be related to the problem I have seen with the message log clearing under certain scenarios only. The messages stick around only for a few secs then disappear off the screen, and the final message log is not complete (in fact the one I saw had a lot of garbage in it).

Thanks! I _think_ we have this fixed on the next build currently under test. Please stick around!

While you're at it [:)], it would be nice if the game would remember your size/position for the message window when you have it set to be a window. If you configure it the way you want it, during a game, the next time you fire up the game it always goes back to its default size/place. A minor thing, but it should remember your window configurations.

I agree, and this would be particularly useful to the folks with multiple monitors. It's on our stack.

Heh, I'm sure that "stack" is growing by the minute! Seriously, this is a big undertaking, and I'm thrilled with most of what you guys have delivered. There's plenty to improve, but out of the gate at least it's in pretty solid shape.
I just remembered a question though about this particular scenario. The briefing, IIRC, notes that the AO is in the British exclusion zone, so anything you see can be considered hostile. That, um, isn't really the case, as I found out...poor blighters on that fishing boat....

Thank you for the kind words!

Cool! I got lucky with that one, I think I only changed the option cause I was trying to figure out why the messages were clearing in another scenario.
As far as the windows request in this thread, It would be nice if the windows would remember their last status at least for the current scenario.
For instance, open the airbase aircrafts window, and it always reverts to having to expand the list again when you reopen it.
Thanks for the great work....
