This sounds a lot like the same but that has been driving me crazy. https://sourceforge.net/p/ohrrpgce/bugs/2005/

For me it most often happens right after spawning an external program like "test game", or changing focus to and from the custom window, but occasionally it is just randomly.

Silas does his best o conceal his frown about the offer and the boxer's bladed hands. "I am sorry good sir, I am only a weak old man, I would never stand a shadow of a chance against your champion. And even if I did, I couldn't meet your bet. I have barely more than a single gp to my name. To ...

Silas decides no good can come from hanging around in the foyer. He leaves off following the others, and turns back to the hallway. There was a door off the side of that hallway that he has not investigated yet Silas has not seen the boxing room yet, and nobody has mentioned it to him so he doesn't...

Code: Select all

set parent(sl, lookup slice(sl:walkabout layer))
This command will reparent the bullet so that instead of being attached to the screen, it will be attached to the map. Then its coordinates will be equivalent to the hero's pixel coordinates

Silas is worried by the huge black bug. He tries as hard as he can to remember if he has ever read about anything like it. He wonders if Yauntor was poisoned or infested with a parasite, and he decides to keep his distance from the place where the others tied up Yentor, and from the sleeping people...

Silas decides that the chest can't possibly contain anything sufficiently valuable or special to justify the risk of opening it himself, so he points it out to Arden. "That was some fine fighting, boy. Here, there is a treasure chest under these webs. Collect your reward." Silas gestures ...

Silas looks appraisingly at the mess and confusion. He then turns to Galse, and says conversationally; "That third door isn't going to be any better." When he is confident that the others have really finished off the spiders, Silas will move into the web room and look around carefully to ...

You can also set it as the after-battle script on each map. Note however that it will break if there's more than one copy of the goon in the hero. Actually, that's pretty tricky to handle. I think the biggest problem is that you can only delete heroes by name/id I need to add a command like "d...

When the one called Kalar asked Silas his name, Silas simply answered: "Silas" And said nothing more. He watched the others, saying nothing. He doesn't know them, doesn't have a reason to like them, but recognizes that they are conscious and apparently not hostile, so he will stick with t...

Figured this was a good thread to address James in. Playing Don't Eat the Soap, RabMoghal reported to me... [14:28] <RabMoghal> I died on the second screen and got a plot script loop message. Uh oh. I wonder what version of Don't Eat Soap it was? I know there are some old versions floating around o...

I learned something interesting while messing with the captcha question on the wiki. Apparently there are two methods that smart spambots use to defeat this kind of question. 1) The spam robot does a google search for the text of the question, and then uses the biggest boldest text as the answer.
