Equinox v1.04 is getting hung up while drawing Coastlines. I have checked "coastlines" under File > Preferences > Maps and get the error I/0 error 6.
Here are the last three things in the status box:
GENERATE: Drawing vector map (5)...
» GENERATE: Preparing to draw (6)...
» GENERATE: Drawing vector map (6)...
I get the same error when generating a European map. Oddly enough it doesn't occur when a US map is generated. I used Europe and the United States from the dropdown menu.
I have successfully trapped and isolated this error. It will be fixed in the next release (and it will likely lead to a fix for the other Error 6 problems).
