Have you ever experienced JA2 and/or 1.13 crashing but not just to the desktop but rather freezing completely? Maybe even on a regular basis since you are playing the latest alphas and betas? Is hard-resetting your machine the only solution? Then you have two options to choose from.
One of them is playing in windowed mode if you’re using v1.13. However, this requires you to manually set your desktop color depth to 16bpp. Depending on your screen resolution the game elements may become real tiny though.
If that isn’t an option for you, you may want to try out AndroidXP’s little utility called “JA2 Crash Monitor“. This handy tool does all the work for you. It starts the game and runs in the background checking from time to time whether or not JA2 is responsive. If it isn’t it’ll shut it down. It also comes with some command line options for tweaking time intervals. No hassle involved.
Brilliant.
