It appears that the heap corruption bug we've been looking for is in the hl sdk, so
the chances are that it's in your mod as well (unless there is some sort of big
conspiracy). Looking back the original problem only occurred when running release
builds on win98 machines. The actual bug is only a small memory overwrite so when
running a debug build it doesn't go past the extra overrun buffer added by the crt
debug dll.
Anyway in vgui_ScorePanel.h in the declaration of class ScorePanel there are 3 arrays.
...
int m_iSortedRows[NUM_ROWS];
int m_iIsATeam[NUM_ROWS];
bool m_bHasBeenSorted[MAX_PLAYERS];
...
then in vgui_ScorePanel.cpp in void ScorePanel::Update() there is the following code
...
// Clear out sorts
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_ROWS; i++)
{
m_iSortedRows[i] = 0;
m_iIsATeam[i] = TEAM_NO;
m_bHasBeenSorted[i] = false;
}
...
This is obviously going to run right off the end of the classes allocated storage and
into the heap allocation list.
