About my minimizing problem. It is because worms wants windows 7 basic theme instead of aero. Problem is worms is having a hard time making the switch and tries running the game with aero (i know as my taskbar on 2nd screen has aero on and when worms works aero goes off and is windows basic). Just thought id let u know what the specifics are of my issue.

So in summary.

Worms wont like to run fullscreen when it hasnt successfully switched to windows basic theme/scheme. It is not a constant bug but happens ALOT, their are times VERY FEW it works without me spamming clickin on the taskbar button for worms and it sticks to fullscreen.

Btw worms names dont show when fully zoomed out just numbers for health, quite annoying when u like the names and handy for knowing which enemy worms turn is coming.

Oh a new bug.

Im having issues with mp. I made a game and invited a friend it worked ok as in going to mp options clicking private and selecting custom mode (my shoppa) then selecting team and start game. Now it shows the invite screen so i tick my friend then i have to click back arrow top left of screen to get to lobby which i can then chat to friend or start game etc.

But now since i exited that game i hosted the game no longer gets to lobby where i chat with my friend it just kinda like skips the lobby when i do back arrow and goes all way back to mp options screen where i set the game up i.e game mode and ranked etc. So i can no longer host any games as when your on invite screen clicking on the back arrow shows the lobby screen for 1 sec and quickly skips back to mp options screen. I noticed too that the mourse arrow cant go all the way to the far left of the screen it only goes so far when in the mp options screen or was it the invite screen maybe both i duno. Duno if thats anything to do with the bug but their u go. Please help as he doesn't have shoppa scheme i made and he probs too lazy to make it himself.

Btw its late hence my typing. Sry.

Here is a video to explain it better.

Ah my friend said tick name then tick invite. Worked but the mouse hand thing not moving to the full left is still a bug.

But even tho i can play mp now, im positive the other way worked before i wonder why it doesn't now.
