Game jerks and stops after playing awhile. bzr6421

[ron hering]

After playing for a time (varies) the carriers and pack animale start jerking and soon will freeze. Happens on almost all maps I try.
USing Mint Linux 12 with 2.5G memory and 2.6 Ghz P4. Am sending a game file.

When you load the savegame, are the carriers still frozen?

When I load the attached file, they are not. Nor have I ever watched this issue while playing myself. I'm on Win 7 with 4GB RAM and I have 2,53GHz. Can you give the dimnsion how long (game time) it takes until the jerking starts (hours/days)? Is there a difference between small and large maps?

Are only the carriers jerking or are other workers also affected? Can you still navigate on the map? If it is a problems of your computer's memory, I guess everything will jerk.

Have you already tried to deactivate all other programms on your computer (including the virus scanner). They can also need a lot of resources.

This game I can continue for quite a while without freezing. However, playing "together we're strong" I once observed a freezing of the transporters. I could do anything else, even saving the game. On starting the saved game, everything was fine again.

Bug 1096632 mentioned above has been fixed, could someone check whether it was related or not? Are anyone still seeing this problem with a recent version of Widelands?

PS. Nice to see people using the "also affects me" feature. However, when you do so, please also change the bug status from new to confirmed so that we can easier see that the bug report in itself has been confirmed by someone else. :) )
