3.9.4 build 3099 won't launch

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

@mcrossley: Michael said this:
The accessibility fix is working, but I can still duplicate this by starting Cumulusmx with no station connected, but the VP2 selected with TCP/IP and then pressing control-c while it is trying to find the station.

Ah, so that is now in the exit code is it?
It runs but if you Control-C before the station is connected/initialised you get the crash. I'm less worried about that, but it needs catching as well.

Hi, I have the same problem since version 3099.
Version 3099 and 3100 do not work, I had to go back to version 3098, which works well.
