0009721: Resizing window crashes game
I started to get crashes at random after resizing the window several times. The crashes happen whenever an "action" happens, like the world coming out of the brief generation period before you can adventure, or entering a town.
Resize the window several times by dragging the side of the window rather than using maximize. You will know when it is going to happen, as the game stops resizing with the window and stays its size. Dragging the window out or maximizing it will have the game in the small size it was before and a whole lot of black around it.
I am using KDE Plasma and the latest Nvidia drivers.
No tags attached.

It seems as though just zooming in and out too fast can cause the crash, too.

What is your PRINT_MODE setting in init.txt? Are you using TWBT?
