Summary0000729: Alt-tabbing during loading with graphics enabled causes tiles/letters/symbols to disappear/blank
DescriptionI think I've isolated this to only when it said 'importing world'. I have graphics on. When I alt-tab during loading, and it doesn't matter which part I'm loading (map generation, starting a fort, legends mode, etc), when I alt-tab back, some letters are missing. They'll just be blank. This persists if I go back to the title screen.
TagsNo tags attached.

Oh, I'm using windowed mode, by the way.

What size world is it?

It did it both with standard creation, and advanced as small.

It does it when loading the arena (standard raws) and legends mode, though.

"It does it when loading the arena (standard raws) and legends mode, though."

What do you mean? Is that on its own enough to cause this issue, or is it a necessary second step?

Sorry... guess I'm being very inarticulate today.

ANY time it says 'Importing world' (or 'Preparing arena'), if I alt-tab, it has a high chance (near 100%) of doing this.

As you can see, H, E and some numbers don't show up. If I leave legends, it'll persist. Happens in any mode, but only if I alt-tab while loading. This was a pocket world I just made to do the glitch.

Restarted, opened up the arena, clicked away while it was loading and...

Again, H, E and some numbers... seems to always be those.

i have seen this too, only in graphics mode, and it always seems to be the 'E'. just playing in text mode for now.

This seems to be fixed in 0.31.02, at least for me.

The most recent Mayday graphics pack has fixed this issue. Mostly anyway since there are still some glitches such as docs showing up as purple skeletons, but the Arena works as it should graphics wise.

Alt tabbing during the prep for journey screen also creates odd text bugs

This bug also shows up when changing the raws while the game is running, and exiting and re-entering arena mode (without exiting the game).

Do you have PARTIAL_PRINT set to YES, perchance?

Is anyone still getting this in 31.05?
