    No sure, as you use Arduino, but I see this behaviour if my JRKs lose the USB port, in other words they get over worked and fall over.

    You can test this by unplugging the USB as you play, and Simtools will crash.

    If so, you may need to check your Ards / MM's are not giving up the ghost mid-play.

    Sorry @bruce stephen - It's an English saying. For when something stops working - "It gives up the ghost"
