Very occasionally during a game the screen will freeze.
I press ctrlaltdel, and select task manager. sometimes I'm able to maximise the game and continue play, but other times I'll get a fatal error.
It happened with the last beta, and has just happened again with the latest.

any ideas?

Please install WormKit (http://worms.thecybershadow.net/wormkit/) and the following WormKit module: 32227

Run the game via WormKit, reproduce the freeze and press Ctrl+Break. W:A should close, and a file named FREEZE.DMP should be created in your W:A folder. Find and post this file here.

Will try that when it next happens, just a quick query:

My keyboard has no pause, break, numlock, scrolllock keys.
But I use autohotkey to remap my capslock to scrolllock, and prntscrn to pause (during worms only).

So I've remapped my Winkey to Break, but when I press ctrl+break in game, nothing happens and I don't get freeze.dmp.

My question is; will ctrl+break only work when the screen freezes?
and, does the Break key serve any other function within worms so I can test my remap?

try setting them to A and B or some such.

My question is; will ctrl+break only work when the screen freezes?
No, it should always work.and, does the Break key serve any other function within worms so I can test my remap?Break my itself should take a screenshot. Shift+Break will attempt to fix the palette while in-game in 3.6.30.0.

happened again, wasn't sure if ctrl+break worked as I had no way of knowing whether the game quit (I still had to ctrlaltdel to get back to windows).

However, FREEZE.DMP's date modified changed to the time of Ctrl+Break, so I assumed it worked.

It's also only ever occured during 1v1 games... if this is any help.

This will have to wait until the next Beta. Or, if you can, please post a FREEZE.DMP when using 3.6.29.0 or 3.6.28.0.
