0000852: Freezing when adding bots
Whenever I want to play an offline game with myself and a few bots, sometimes when I add the bots, it freezes right after I get out of the console. I'm guessing it happens at least 7 times out of 10
1. Start an offline game
2. Join which team you want to be in(skip if teams are disabled)
3. add 4 to 8 bots using the "addbot" command in the console
4. exit the console and it freezes resulting in me having to do Ctrl+Alt+Del, go into the task manager and end the process
OS: Win 7 64-bit
CPU: Intel Corei7 2600k 4 core 8 thread
GPU: ATI Radeon HD 6870
RAM: 12 GB 1333MHz
Sound Cared: X-Fi Titanium

Did you load any custom wads when this happened? Do you try if deleting your ini file fixes the problem?

No I haven't deleted my .ini file to see if it fixes the problem.

AOW has a tendency of freezing if you add bots to most maps - maps like 01, 02, 04 and 15 are safe though. This has been going on for eons now, predating 98d I think.

The bots also begin to use an enormous amount of CPU after being kept in for a while.

Somewhat related: There is a AOW2 server I usually play on that now displays "Level Authentication Failed, Please make sure you are using the same WADs as the server"
Same thing happens when I try to join my own server that I created with any custom WAD. If I start a server w/o WADs, I can enter it without problems.

So this doesn't happen without custom wads?

As posted above: no
EDIT: scratch that, happens w/o wads too

I think it's related to teleports, BTW, the freeze happens exactly when the bot is supposed to be teleported by ACS.

Maybe there is a Skulltag Out file that shows errors similar to verbose messages except it is in txt format or something which I could attach to the report and if so, where could I find it on my computer?

Can somebody create a minimal example wad that allows to reproduce the freeze based on this?
