I examined a robot right next to me called an informer or something like that (hadn't seen one before), then tried to turn my grenade launcher back on and the game did a disappearing act. Attaching the crash.log

Thank you for the report.

It was caused by the circumstances surrounding your map and/or cursor position
when you activated the launcher. The crash occurred when the UI tried to predict the explosion AOE to highlight it as usual.

I'm not sure I know how to repeat this one for testing yet...

- Were you using the mouse or keyboard mode?
- Did you happen to be near the edge of the map? (or maybe you didn't know)
- Were you playing in fullscreen?
- Had you just Alt-Tabbed between the game and something else?

None of these are certain to be related, but I have to take some shots in the dark because the exact circumstances of why this might happen are unclear. Rare UI bugs are the worst (this is the first such bug since release :/).

Yeah it figures it'd be me to find a bug like this. I was using keyboard mode, in fullscreen. I was only a little way from the level stairs, so unsure of my map position but it wasn't right at the edge, and I don't remember alt-tabbing. It's possible I may not have fully esc'd out of x'amining the enemy robot before I turned on my grenade launcher? That's all I can think of.

Okay, many thanks for the extra details, those will help.

Spent an hour on this this morning and can't repeat it, though I've tracked down a theoretical cause--which in theory should also have caused more problems than just this, but hasn't--and put a check on it that should prevent it from happening again.

I'll consider this resolved, though I can't test it to confirm.
