Spring RTS Engine

Regulaly i have an isue where if the game crashes or i end it the battle screen gets a massive value on the left position in registry, this causes it to not be displayed.

Would it be possible for someone to program up a check on the battlescreen left position for me and if its a stupid value reset it to 0? i have a registry edit file on my desktop which i run alot just to play in games because the screen keeps going awol.

Also, while fixing this isue i found why i have NEVER been able to use the download window


[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TASClient\Forms\MapListForm]
"Left"=dword:ffffecd4
"Top"=dword:0000000a
"Width"=dword:00000258
"Height"=dword:00000190
"WindowState"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TASClient\Forms\OnlineMapsForm]
"Left"=dword:ffffed62
"Top"=dword:0000000a
"Width"=dword:0000029c
"Height"=dword:000001cf
"WindowState"=dword:00000000

by default on install my left value for these two windows are set to a massive massive number. i thought it was just buggered and i couldnt be arsed to fight with betalord as to why it wasnt working because i had no idea why, i just blamed XP 64 bit.

which i still do, but i dont understand why its putting left as such a massive value, delphi ...

thanks

have the same problem, and if I minimize the program it's pretty painfull to try to get it back on screen.... seems i have to reinstall

This fixes all the b0rked values

copy paste into notepad and save as a .reg file

This is the first report that actually shows exactly what the problem with windows getting out of visible area is, will be fixed with next update (don't know exactly why it messes up Left value though).

thankyou

Thanks for the help, but this didn't really work, either didn't reinstalling help damn, the problem is only with the tasclient, the standalone itself runs just nice.

well propably it does just good to keep little pause from ta until the next update....

You have to apply this "patch" after you've closed TASClient, or else it will overwrite these entries on exit.
