Not sure what can be done about this other than document that the limitations of using demo data and the covertops data.

JohnsterID commented 2 years ago

Relevant error message (missing data file) instead of the application crashing?

OmniBlade commented 2 years ago

Fair point, the crash on missing data needs fixing for other issues as well.

Isn't there a demo version with Nod files? it may be a requirement for getting CovOps demo to work.
