Your second outermost if() clause in StartScreen(), the one that begins with if (frametype == 0 || frametype == -1), contains an infinite while loop. That loop contains no break statements, and calls StartScreen() -- it recurses into itself!

Without my trying to follow the program logic, I can at least posit that the code is in a second or higher recursion when it calls return, thus returning to where it had called itself. So, yes, if that is correct, it will still be executing within StartScreen() after the return statement. The return statement wouldn't have "failed" in that case; it would have resumed the at the point where the its prior instance called itself.

If that sound convoluted, it's because it is! There can be good reasons to recurse, if you intended to, know what you're doing, and know that the recursion will end before you run out of stack space. Carefully review your program logic; this may not be one of those instances....
