Session just stop working.
 
Went though a lot of work trying to get this working
http://forums.zuggsoft.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=39238#177617&sid=b0f41d9e5d19184b1aee0e6f804f5b5b

Now this session just stop working.
Unconnected Eternal Darkness Window the Chat windows you see are connected


When I try to open it Offline , nothing appears and I have no mouse, just a thin line , like on the prompt but not flashing, cant even shut down Cmud
have to use Task manager to shut it down

The other Session all open up , but I need the Eternal Darkness session as per the idea in the top thread.

The back up system backs up the last corrupted .pkg , it doesn't make NEW backups

What's wrong?

I'm not sure what is wrong.
You could try holding shift as you load it, that will break apart the layout, assuming that is even the issue...

Ok .. redid the layout , least this time round it was easier , But I had to redo the Eternal Darkness session as it was corrupted.


Side question ,( was testing this when it all stuffed up) all the Chat window I have them as no connection like Eternal Darkness window, correct ?

I had the same problem. Two corrupted sessions, that wouldnt load anymore.
Holding down shift during load restored one of them, the other is still corrupted.
The window just disappears when there are other sessions active. Only if it is the first session it loads.
Sometimes it helps to Edit session--> package files --> switch off use layout. But not with this one. Still corrupted.

Strange how sessions can get corrupted. Luckily I have in total 8 barbarian sessions, that can be copied to restore a corrupted one.

Me, a beginner? Thats kind of funny.

It has taken many hours of tweaking to get the layout I want and then have that session saved. Backup upon backup of sessions is the only way to be sure :)

I believe all of this is related to window handling as cMud is a bit of a mess in how it deals with multiple windows.

...and there are windows within windows, buttons everywhere...and so on.
