Closing games and panel/game hierarchy

[fogy]

When I right click on a game window in Pwnboxer and choose close game a few things happen: The game doesn't close, but it appears Pwnboxer just thinks it's closed.

When I start the "closed" game up again, a new instance of WoW is created, but the "closed" game is still running, so have N+1 games when all is done.

Once I stop and restart a game like that the panels lose their position as top layer only for that game. All other games that were running always have the panels up top.

When the new game has focus I can recall the panels to the front with my Extra's key bind, but as soon as I use the panel they fall back under the game window.

1) Games are supposed to close-close when asked via Pwnboxer, ya?
2) Whatcha doing for panel/game hierarchy as games are stopped and started?

You are correct, I noticed something like this a few patches ago in WoW.

Basically let me sum up the scenario:

If you right click on a specific game window and hit close, it will not close.

However, if you hit "CLOSE ALL GAMES" button, then all will close.

I did see this start happening maybe hmm, 3-4 patches ago, but I never put too much attention into it since I normally just hit close all games.

This'll get looked at eventually, but I'm still in the midst of some other bugs/new fixes coming up for an upcoming release. I ranked this pretty minor as something to get fixed. In case you are curious of the specifics, the unique game window close option is more "graceful", whereas the close all games pretty much tells WoW "Close now dammit".

Keen eye though, its refreshing to see somebody else noticing little details like this
