[2021.4 - 0506] Hang and crash when closing help patches

uups. Well now I am REALLY wondering what all these are. I’ll be unplugging stuff and will report back if it makes a difference in VL.

So I unplugged the 3DConnexion SpaceMouse Wireless. A bunch of devices disappeared. In VL it is now showing 0 Game Controller devices. Strangely, when I plugged it back in later, it is still showing 0 devices.

Anyways, see the attached video of what happened. It still crashed even when showing 0 devices.

I will actually disable some of the devices and try again.

ps: how come we can’t upload videos directly here in the forum?

Can you confirm that opening and closing one help patch at a time works?

@Elias nope. Even if I open the first help patch, close it, then open another one and close that one, it will crash after closing the second renderer.

Finally found the nasty bugger. Crash when having game pad / joystick connected will be fixed in upcoming builds.
