this one occurs on wheel at first load if you do not press the roof, and
directly mousewheel
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object
reference.

and here's another one: this one happends by combo press/wheel/move
Error: Error #1503: A script failed to exit after 30 seconds and was terminated.
