The maptext should stay.

I also get the winset error, with any project that does a maptext output(?) when the player logs in. However, this error only occurs in games that don't use a custom interface. Is it worth posting a new bug report since I can't test it in the newest version of BYOND (499.1187)?

Edit:
This demo of yours does something weird for me; every time I reboot it (in Dream Seeker, not hosting via Dream Daemon) using the menu button in Options and Messages, it spams me with .winset errors - unreproducible in other projects.
But, the initial bug reported is reproducible in the demo, and in other projects. Not just by rebooting in Dream Daemon, but in Dream Seeker's reboot AND reconnect.
