[Super-tux-devel] Possible SEGMENTATION FAULT in gameloop

[Duong-Khang N. <neo...@us...>]

This happens when the gameloop tries to load an incorrect level.dat. For eg. 
the level3.dat is not complete yet. In this case the program does a 
Segmentation Fault, it's not that bad but I think we should be prepared for 
such a situation.

I had this segfault, too. But I don't know how to reproduce it. :(
I'm not even sure, if it is related to a incomplete level.

If you can reproduce it, I would glad to receive
your backtrace. (gdb ./supertux)

It looks like that:
 Fatal signal: Segmentation Fault (SDL Parachute Deployed)

I hope the segfault doesn't appear anymore.
It should be recognized now, if a level is incomplete.
