Probably related to /viewtopic.php?TopicID=37916, but posting separately for tracking reasons.

Crash on Windows. Repro:

1) Start DROD.
2) Go to the Change Location screen.
3) Submit a rating for a hold (new rating or resubmit; both work).
4) Make sure your current hold was originally downloaded from CaravelNet in-game, then leave the location screen.
5) Return to the game with either Play New Game or Continue Playing Game.
6) Walk out of the room.

The game will crash with a "drod.exe has stopped working" at that point.

Note that using a non-CaravelNet hold for steps 4-5 does not trigger the crash (but if you play a non-CNet hold for a bit and then switch to a CNet one, it'll crash when you exit the CNet hold). I've tested that with both a hold I built and Fireside DRODing in Claythro Tower.

I don't know whether holds downloaded from the forum and then manually imported would make it crash; I don't have any of those in my installation.

Thanks. There are probably other combinations of this lurking, but I think I've cleaned up the code sufficiently to fix them all.

Fixed in 5.0.1.5992.
