By "under consideration" I meant that you were already working on it, I simply didn't want to bother you with problems which you already were aware of.

This happens to be easy to reproduce on my computer, here is the code

Code:
#include <acknex.h>
#include <default.c>

ENTITY* lamp_pointer;   // lamp is an entity    
var lamp_counter = 1; // 1 for on, 0 for off. 


function main()
{
	level_load("lamp_pointer.WMB");
	wait(3);
	printf("Press [0] to move the camera!");
}


action lamp()     
{    
      me=lamp_pointer;    
      my.red  = 200; // lamp light colors    
      my.green = 200;    
      my.blue = 150;    
}    



function lamp_on ()    
{    
      if (lamp_counter == 1)     
      {    
            lamp_pointer.lightrange = 500; // turn the light on    
            lamp_counter = 0;  // reset counter    
      }    
      else    
      {    
            lamp_pointer.lightrange = 0; // turn it off    
            lamp_counter = 1;  // set counter    
      }    
}    



action light_switch()
{
	my.emask |= ENABLE_SHOOT;
	my.event = lamp_on;
}


Notice that in action lamp() I put me=lamp_pointer instead of lamp_pointer=me so obviously that is my own fault. When I write lamp_pointer=me the code runs fine.

There are two circumstances which will occur depending upon if I am running the script from WED or directly from SED.

1)From WED: The engine will crash and I am returned to the desktop

2)From SED: The engine will crash AND SED will crash and dissapear.

In either case the windows error message will occur sometimes, sometimes it will not:
