- The login : It's weird, I will look into that when we've got our new server. Sometimes the current one is overloaded by the minecraft server and can indeed timeout. I'm not aware that a lot of people are in this case, but if it's happens a lot, I would like to know.
- The chat : When trying to login multiple times, it's possible that you manage to reach the IRC Server. When you disconnect, maybe the IRC server doesn't manage to see your disconnect, resulting in a ghost connection. When you relog, your login name is not available (because of the ghost), and so you can't log again into the chat.
You should see if it's the case on the server log windows.
- The black screen on ladder : it happens if your opponent quit the game before you reach his game : FA is initialized, but can't reach the host lobby, resulting in a black screen. In that case, alt-f4 is the way to quit.
Can't do much about it, except lauching the "joigner" player earlier to have a better chance to connect, but won't solve completely the issue. I guess that less people are aborting games on GPGnet so it's not happening a lot.
I can also fake that the server found a game, so you have an endless "setting up connection" message instead of a black screen, not sure it's better
- The gray screen : a totally other issue, it's a graphic/directX problem with FA. Alt-F4 doesn't work, and I can't do much about that. Try to not alt-tab during any loading, it seems to produce it. I've found that ctrl-alt-del seems to solve the problem.
