Having some specific trouble with your latest build and 1024x768 resolution -- all unnamed civilians disappear over time.

The missing civilians bug should not be related to the resolution. It's a bug from Tron (the author of stracciatella).

If I remember correctly, civilians are missing on a sector as soon as one of them who has a "profile" on the map you are loading shouldn't be added to the sector. Carmen for example: he is present on several maps. If you enter a sector where he could be spawned but is not, the creation of all the other civilians in the sector will be cancelled.

I think sunshine fixed it in his own repository of stracciatella. I have my fix too but I didn't release it. I will look at it later if required.

This is what I remember:
Technically, there is a function somewhere to add anyone to the current sector. Tron asserted that the function fails because there are too many people already added, but it can fail too if a civilian with a "profile" like Carmen in considered to be added but should not.

I think sunshine simply makes the caller don't care if the function fails or not. My own patch considers letting the function fail for some of the civilians.

I'll try to release my patch as soon as possible.

Edit: Link to the patch topic
