Title: Maximizing window
Post by G-Man on 09/16/03 at 01:08:10

At times when I maximize the game window, it mysteriously closes. Then about ten seconds later the little window pops up and sasy the connectioin to server has been lost.
I know it's not because I'm a clutz and accidentally hitting the close button because it usually just happens when I double click the window title bar.

I get the same problem, and I've mentioned it in the past. There doesn't seem to be a solution that anyone could find for it, what will make your life somewhat easier tho (for all people who get this problem), is to set Nightmist up to autologin, so as soon as it closes you can just click the icon and your straight back in. I can't remember exactly what it was you need to do for this as I'm not at home right at the minute :)

I'll let you know asap if someone can't supply the necessary information sooner.

it closes because it is resizing everything in the background, i will note to make the hiding optional for the next client

Auto-login has its ups and downs though.

I have the same problem. It vanishes when you resize, but then never appears again and you get connection lost.

It's a pain.

Lower resolution always works. That way you don't need to resize.
