Summary	0000049: F4 causing crashes in 0.72

Additional Information	Further details on how the crash could be reproduced here: http://forum.vcmi.eu/viewtopic.php?p=3243#3243 [^] Okay, I tried different combinations, so I can give more details: - At game start, if I hit F4 before doing anything else, the game goes in full screen, but the moment I click on the check button (or press Enter) to close the Intro Event Message box, the game crashes (always - on all maps) - At game start, if I first close the Intro Event Msg box, and then I hit F4, the game goes in full screen, I can hover over objects to see the tooltip text or even r-click without any problem, but the moment I try to set path to one of the heroes, the game always crashes - Same as above, but if I first set path to one of the heroes, and then I go to full screen, the game doesn't crash so easily anymore. If I follow that path to a battle, the hero follows, has the battle, then I can do almost anything, except hit the Game Options button (which leads to crash). If however I set the path few tiles away where there's no monster to battle, the hero goes there with no crash, but if I try to set a second path, the game crashes - 5 times in a row the game didn't crash in Town Screen. Plus going to full screen while in Town window reduced the chance of crashes because of other actions, so also after exiting the town. For example not only could I move the heroes and have battles, but I could also open Game Options. Though the game crashed when I hit Quit to Desktop. - The 5 next time when I went in full screen while in Town interface, the game however crashed when I tried to build or just exit the town. :( - When I go to battle before visiting the Town Screen, if I go to full screen mode during battle, I can hover over creatures to see info, but at the first mouse click or hotkey, the game crashes. However, after the first 5 (successful) visits of the Town screen, there were no more issues with F4 in battles afterwards. And maybe another important note: crashes don't occur only in full screen! They seem to be more related to the use of the F4 key. Even if I use F4 twice, so I'm back in windowed mode, the above scenarios to create or avoid the crash are reproducible same as when I was in full screen mode.
