Description

Dear Repentogon Devs,

Could you fix this bug in the game? It is described here, under StartRoomTransition (): https://wofsauge.github.io/IsaacDocs/rep/Game.html
Transcription of the bug description:
Note that if you use RoomTransitionAnim.PIXELATION (2), you must not interrupt the effect (e.g. with another room transition or room change) once it starts playing. Otherwise, after around 11 interuptions, the "log.txt" will start to become spammed with "[ASSERT] - PushRenderTarget: stack overflow!". This is because internally, the game uses a finite buffer to store information about the effect, and if it is interrupted, the buffer will never be cleared.

Game Version: 1.7.9b
Repentogon Version: 1.0.4
