Description andrew 2013-05-05 03:30:36 UTC
While the cubes are cascading press the new button. A new field will be set up and the 'explosion' from the last pending cascade occurs for the human player giving them up to 4 squares at the start of the game.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. play until there is a cascade
2. press the new game button
3.
Actual Results:  
a new field with a few squares owned by the player

Expected Results:  
a new field completely blank of player territories

Please let me know what versions of KJumpingCube and KDE you have (use Help->About).

I can reproduce this on KJumpingCube 2.0 and KDE 4.10.1.  I don't think the player gains any squares: I think they are just colored wrongly because the animation keeps going after you hit "New".  But it is still a bug.  Nicely spotted!

From KDE 4.10.4 onward, the animation no longer runs on when you request a New Game.
