    Screen Freeze

    Hello to all.

    What does it mean when my game, as I'm running it, just freezes. I can't do anything anymore?
    Did you get what I mean? If you didn't please don't hesitate to ask.

    Thank you for your help.

    Maybe there's an error in your game, or it's just Windows.

    So you mean it's some kind of "Out of memory" or "Out of stack" error, but I don't see the message?

    Maybe..

    I'd rather say it's just a endless loop though

    Test it out: If your game freezes press Ctrl+Break, if you return to the code you'll see where your game stucks.. (The processed line respectively)

    Example for endless loop: *g
    Code:
    While True
   'Do something

    I don't get it!
    I have tried my game several times and it didn't freeze!
    How can I know when it will do that? Because this is a great bug, it shouldn't be kept as it is, no?
