Yeah.. I realize that. I'm familiar with the problem - I reported it during alpha, though there were a lot of emails flying back and forth at the time.
It will happen anytime Jack leaves a room where no other room exists in the direction he is heading. Whether the direction is up/down/right/left is unimportant. Also, Jack doesn't have to die to trigger the problem, just continue to run (or fall) off-screen.
I was just suggesting that preventing such a scenario would effectively prevent the problem, since I had no idea at all how ugly it would be to fix. Obviously, having a general fix is better than trying to pretend the problem doesn't exist by hiding it. Since Vern has a fix for it, there's not much more that needs to be said.
I'm glad someone else also encountered it, to help give the issue some more attention.
