    Hi,

    This case will never occur during normal use of the game, but I noticed that the loading screen freezes in some unusual situation, namely:

    1. You must have a saved game
    2. Click LOAD GAME button, and select a file.
    3. Go to the saved game folder '%userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow\Praxis Games\ISG'
    usually 'C:\Users\<your_username>\AppData\LocalLow\Praxis Games\ISG'
    4. Delete saved games
    5. Back to game and click LOAD button

    I know this situation probably never occurs, but the game hangs or freeze (loop exit condition, perhaps). Seems to me that 'file not found exception' is not handled.

    Well, if you delete the file before loading the game, then you can't load it after issuing the load command. So, I don't see an issue here.

    Well, I found it, so I thought I do let you know.
    Such things can take revenge at the least expected moment.
    And as you probably know, the user can do something that the developer would never have thought of. ;)

    Yes, I know, but some things are pretty obvious that you shouldn't be doing, like deleting save files before you load them ;) Were this critical software I would understand, but since it's a game it's not an issue.
