Crash on opening the Vars window
 
Hi, every time I open up the vars window, my zMUD locks up and needs to be killed. I also believe something (memory leak?) is causing lag. When I copy and paste more than a few lines into the prompt, I need to reconnect to my MUD or I won't get any output. If I do it line by line, it is fine. I'm not really sure what information I should post to troubleshoot this and I didn't find a similar thread in my (quick) search.

It sounds like you sessions is becoming corrupted. I would recommend you export you settings to text, and then review the file to see what may be causing the error. A good first step may be to remove from the exported text file, all variables that get automatically created or updated.

Thank you. I took a look at the file and the problem was immediately visible. I've been playing the same MUD for about a decade, and over the years, some of the VARs automatically captured by my triggers had become huge. Clearing those in the text file (since I wasn't able to do it in zMUD itself) and making a clean session then importing what was left from the txt as a script seems to have fixed the problem.

Thanks!
