Hey guys, hope someone can help me, tried to do a little search around by didn't find a solution.

Basically, I can be mapping away, I launch the game so I can get a look how its all looking inside the game.
If i then alt tab or even completely quit NS2, my spark editor is stuck at not responding.
I don't even have to load a map though, If i just start the game as in in the menu, then quit, spark is stuck at not responding.

Granted I have never left it very long to see if it comes right, maybe 30 seconds, I just close it and re-open my map.
I have noticed from watching streams though that others don't have this problem.

I keep the spark launch pad open BTW if that helps.

Anyone else have this issue? or know how to resolve it.

    Yeah, the Spark Editor gets tuck for me too when I start the game. I've just grown accustomed to closing the editor before testing a map.

    Try it windowed, lessen the chances of crashes when you alt-tap.

    mine does the same thing, but i find that if I leave the game running and alt-tab instead quitting, then it doesn't crash. its also much faster when you are testing little fixes since you dont have to reload the game, just reload the map.
