Random 'asplosions

[dirtyfreeman71]

I'm going to go out on a limb and probably attribute it to me not being as good with a mouse/keyboard combo as I am with a controller, but is it me or is anyone experiencing random deaths with no enemies in the vincinity?



(Off-topic: Josh, I finally registered in the forums to say congratulations. I'm glad to see someone living the dream. I finally made the decision to purchase Arcadia because I want to be able to say I saw the product grow from the start. inb4USI. Good luck to you and right on, brotha)

Me and SqueeMK2 have noticed it too. Mentioned it in a different thread though
Runtime error (http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1706156)
True, today is the first day I've been able to play Arcadia, but I'm not that bad at this style of game to not notice something coming to blow me up. Besides, it seems like every time you die whatever it is that ran into you stays on the screen afterward, as though to tell you, "I did it!" There isn't always something there when I die though.

Ah, I know I should lurk moar with this forum. I didn't look at that thread yet because I haven't encountered a runtime error. Today was the first time in a while I've played the game as well. I figured I might as well with the load of updates being applied in the past week or so. Ah well.

I don't think it has to do with the runtime error, just a digression in that thread.
Added my own experience to the Tech Support thread, Skaery. Thank you for the link.

Thanks for the support DirtyFreeman, it means a lot.

I can't seem to pinpoint the bug, I don't know if it's a collision error, or an enemy spawning but not drawing, so I guess I should just keep looking at those sections of code.

yep mine is unplayable since build 8.
lucky to last 30 seconds before my ship randomly explodes.
i no i am going to love this game when its playable.

Awesome, Josh found the bug! *caveman bug squishing dance*

What monumental set of tasks completed Joshyy, I am also not spontaneously combusting.

And what better way to celebrate than me *almost* hitting the 50k score, which mind you is an effort when I haven't slept for a day. Give me another day and I'll be up there in the 200k's :D.

You haven't seen anything yet..The task i'm doing now is monumental. Fixed up all the errors I get when I try to compile on Mac. At last count it was 2508 errors.

Oh I love you Mac, with your stupid OpenAL support.

Wow, cool beans. Got a patch today that fixed the crash on launch, and got a second patch in the same day that fixed the seemingly invisible baddies.

Thanks much!
