Title: DSL V2.2 crashes when editing teams and bot controls
Post by: Cloudworxz on April 21, 2016, 04:17:23 PM: Robot Arena 2 crashes every time I either attempt to edit a team or the name of a bot's control. It seems to do this in both 2.1 and 2.2 versions of DSL (the ones that can be downloaded on gametechmods, ready modified), as well as the stock game.
This did not happen on my previous machine, a Windows 10 laptop. The computer the crashes are occurring on now is Windows 7.
Does anybody have a way to fix this?

Ra2 tends to crash when your in a menu and your running the game windowed. You can fix this by running the game in fullscreen and I think running the game in compatibility mode can fix it.

Running the game in full-screen will more than likely cause textures to stretch as the ingame resolutions probably aren;t to scale with your monitor, so you might want to edit your ra2.cfg to correct the resolution.
