Summary 0000357: Starting a loadlist from within the game loses some options
Description "New Match | Add | [any load list file with width and height specified]" doesn't resize the arena, so if it was smaller than whan the load list tries to set, robots get mispositioned! Starting the load list by double clicking it in Windows does load the width and height correctly.

This is actually by design. It lets you open load lists from the New Match dialog without effecting the match settings you may have already customized. The position issue is a bad side-effect though.

My intent was that you are simply "Adding" the robots from the load list, not the entire load list. If it didn't work this way and you opened multiple load lists for example, each one would change the settings.

You've got a point there but I still doubt it. At least this behaviour should be documented then. Would there be any way to let users choose if they want to open their load lists with all the settings or with robots only? Even a windows registy setting, perhaps?

Not going to change anything for 1.4.03, but I'll keep this for the next release.

I'm still not sure how to handle this issue, so I'm going to change it to acknowledge and let it sit :)
