[gameprogrammer] Re: random speed up

Do you launch a timer after you exit the main menu?

Do you stop the timer when you go back to the main menu?  

I'm thinking you may have two timers firing off when only one of them
is really wanted.  And every time you go back and forth you add
another time to the mix making it appear that the game is speeding
up.  Just a thought.

I am doubting you are looking in the right place for your speed up
issue.
