Weird game crash

[Corin]

I've looked at other crash problems, and haven't seen any related to this, so...

My game crashes after about 5 seconds. No error message, no "hey wait, don't do that" warning, just a crash to desktop. As if warcraft had never been opened.

The trick - it only does this if player 9 is playing.

I did find a "trigger - run (this trigger) (checking conditions)" actions that had snuck into one of my triggers and took it out before posting this, but....the game still crashes.

I think it hates me. Help?

ummm...sort of fixed?

As I wrote that last post I've been testing the triggers....

Apparently it's fixed now; Player 9 had ownership of two buildings that were on unbuildable space (which were edited to be allowed to be on such space), which were *apparently* causing the crash - I fixed this by making them belong to Neutral Passive then writing a change ownership trigger into the game. End result is that they still belong to Player 9, but...why would this have caused a crash?

its possible there's a game bug in there somewhere, but I know pathing issues are notorious for causing game crashes.

I remember back before blizzard fixed it, buildings set to have "no pathing" would always crash the game. Took people awhile to figure that one out too heh.
