This is either the CargoMeter or my batch of variable changes. I'll see if I can track it down.

Anyway guys, the 630 revision is from the branch I created, which is bound to be broken quite regularly as it is a very system wide WIP. You should stick to the trunk for working on your own modifications unless you are working on the same thing as I am. I'll merge the trunk into the branch regularly to keep up to date with your changes and fix any inconsistencies as they appear, as per SVN best practices.

On the subject of exceptions, what I've done on this cases when I encounter a crash with no info, is append the exception message to the report, like:
catch(Exception ex)
{
    Report.Fatal("Failed to launch GUI. Details:" + Enviroment.Newline + ex.ToString()
}


Something that would be very useful is to modify the Report class, so that when running the Debug assembly it prints the exception message, but when running the Release assembly it outputs it to a crash.txt file so that users can submit them to us without seeing an ugly ass message on screen.
