i can not reproduce it here (linux), and the infolog contains no stack trace (i guess that is a crash handling or logging failure) :/
though.. log should be flushed during crash handling since 85.0.

anyway.. can't help without a stack trace. maybe check if console output has more to offer (spring.exe 2> myLogFile.txt, i think).

spring.exe > c:\bla.txt

I noticed renaming/deleting springlobby.exe or springsettings.exe makes it not crash when clicking the button.
(but then of course the button does nothing else either)

 @knorke:

does it crash, too if you are in windowed mode?

and, does anybody use the feature to start springsettings/springlobby? imo it can/should be removed...

 crashes in windowed mode too.
tried replacing springlobby.exe with some other renamed .exe file and that crashes too.

imo those buttons and "lobby connect (wip) should be removed.
or at least it should be made a lot more clearer that spring.exe is not for playing but just for testing? (atm it is misleading with the nice background image)

 fixed by removal: https://github.com/spring/spring/commit/5070e2f2c51edc14461660054e123c33a48bc6e2


reason:

imo they where just confusing and they are never used. i personaly used them once i think and i think others didn't use these two buttons, too.

this could be maybe done this way: only show this menu, when "--test" as parameter is given / and enable this parameter always for debug builds.
