I don't know if this feature was >specific to my computer or not, but it was rather annoying. C&C consistenly crashes on my computer. You can avoid it in single-player-mode by saving often. Crashes in multi-player-mode make me PISSED OFF. I have *NEVER* completed a multi-player-game. It's really annoying. And please don't tell me to check my configuration -- I tried it all!!! I mailed westwood at ma...@westwood.com TWICE, once describing the problem with the crashing, and the 2nd time with a bug regarding the GDI's Orcas (which sometimes won't return to their base or wander of the screen), but I still haven't received any reply.. So much for their 24-hrs-reply-policy... ;( -Ruud
