Damm

[Vger]

Hi,

I've only been dumped back to desktop (1.35) twice in more or less constant play--8 or more hours a day. I don't quit the game when I stop, I leave it running and minsize. Then, when I'm ready to play I bring it up again. I also have the SETI program running all the while I'm playing.

SE 4 has been marvelously well behaved. I've been experimenting with Ulead Cool3D and even with that crunching along (at Last, something to make even the fastest system crawl), I have had no problems, though there is some lag when Cool3D is chewing on something.

Point of all this is, if there is a memory leak, it's a darn small one. My current game is using Devnull and TDM, playing with 20 races on a large map with 254 systems. My experienced opinion is that there is no such leak, otherwise I'd surely be having problems left, right and center, given how I'm using my system.

I've had programs that leak before, for example, Birth of the Federation and SE 4 exhibits none of the signs. SE 4 is one of the most reliable and stable and well-behaved games I've ever played.
