Spring 96 crashing due to area attack command given

Post by klapmongool »

What happened? I gave a group of units, accidentally, an area attack order on a large group of enemy units. All remaining players crashed. Happens at the very end (duh) of this replay:

Seems to be similar to this http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=31223?

Wasn't the first game in Spring 96 that I, accidentally, did that. Didn't cause crash in that game but only massive lagg.

Known issue - BA is to blame, not Spring. Will be fixed in next update.

addendum: Spring 96 no longer allows giant memory allocations from Lua so instead of crippling lag spikes you get a CTD.
