User:BF10/Terminology

Here is more terminology to the series in general.

Softlock
The low level occuring of error handling, when the game tries to continue but there is no possible action to continue. The game will then do nothing afterwards, making no process. Usually in most cases, the only solution is to restart the level or concede.

Freeze
When the game is seemingly ceasing to respond, but then resumes later. This usually happens if the device is lagging, to the point where the game is freezing but not enough to crash.

Hang
When the game refuses to respond to any command. Usually at this point, the game is pretty much unrecoverable and must be restarted manually.

Crash
The high level of error handling, when the program ceases to respond whatsoever and aborts. When this happens, the app will do depending on the OS:
 * Windows: It will give a General Protection Fault, which varies based on the OS.
