Budget pop-up wont go away #24

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
The pop-up window for the budget keeps appearing every few minutes even after I 
have closed the game. I went as far as deleting the game but that didn't get 
rid of the problem. It's really annoying.

Oh, that does sound really annoying.

I guess you would need to open task manager and delete the "java" process. For 
some reason it did not clean itself up properly when you closed the main window.

I found the cause. The following sequence of events in version 1.3 or version 
1.4 will cause this behavior:

1. start new city
2. add a building or two
3. close the window
4. when prompted to save, click Yes.
5. specify a filename

This triggers a bug causing the simulation to continue running even after the 
main window was closed. Assuming the user did not have auto-budget enabled, the 
budget dialog will appear occassionally, even though it otherwise appears the 
program is no longer running.

This will be fixed in version 1.6.

This was fixed in version 1.5. Version 1.6, containing some additional fixes, 
is available now.
