I have Thunder Cat v3.30 installed on my BBS, and it runs with the 52-line DOOR.SYS.  I updated Synchronet on my system and changed the option to the 31-line DOOR.SYS, but Thunder Cat didn't run.  I haven't looked into the error yet, but I reverted back to the 52-line DOOR.SYS and it runs successfully.  I'm running the door on dosemu2 on Linux, and I believe Rixter (who said he was seeing this issue) may be running Win32 - though for this issue, I wouldn't think that would make a difference.
