[RESOLVED] Game crashes 2nd time I run it. (install directory problem)

I played it on german, but even with english (I can open the game only after reinstalling) this still happens.

I tried unchecking everything in the options, but didn't seem to change much.

...But installing it to a new folder helped (dumb me), even with all the old settings :S.

What do you think could have been the problem?

Just to add some information to this,

I encountered the problem again today, but this time I noticed that there was another *pyrogenesis.exe* running in the background (without actually doing anything).

Also the \Appdata\Local\0ad folder was being used (by the pyrogenesis.exe).

So I think that's what caused the problem.

Hmm, sounds like it might have crashed in the background or have been slow to close. It can continue running if it's in a debug loop or if it's waiting for a background thread to finish. Maybe we need to check if an instance of pyrogenesis.exe is already running and warn the user before continuing the game startup (at least on Windows where this is most problematic)
