Scratch applet crashes firefox with "Asteroids"

Hello wonderful and great Gods and Goddesses of scratch development -

I was just playing asteroids here:
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/SonicPopsDad/245563
And then my browser crashed.

Firefox 3.04
OS X 10.5.5

I can repeat this - only requires that I play at medium level for a bit, approx. 20 seconds.  No obvious actions prior to crash. Perhaps it has something to do with the 54 sprites and 171 scripts..


Help Scratchers make the leap to 2.0!

Re: Scratch applet crashes firefox with "Asteroids"

I tried the Asteroids project and noticed that it has the same memory leak that Paddle2See reported in this post http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=11703 (I have an XP system with IE 7 and Java 1.6)


I've updated my text adventure game.

I think this topic is a bit dated now - let's close it.
