AGS: Saving while a text field is visible can result in the savegame name being typed in-game [original bug]

Reported by: Thunderforge Owned by:
Priority: low Component: Engine: AGS
Version: Keywords: shivahkosher original
Cc: Game:

Description

When saving a game during a typing section, such as while logging onto a computer, results in the name of the save game being typed in-game. See the attached animated gif for an example.

This also happens in the original interpreter.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Click on any computer (the attached save game has you right next to one)
  2. When the computer starts up showing the login screen or any other screen with a text field, press F5 to bring up the save dialog
  3. Type in the name of your save game and click "Save" or press Enter

The result is the game will have typed it in, despite not being visible at the time. For instance, if you do it at the login screen of Rabbi Stone's computer and press Enter to save, you will see "Sorry. There is no user with the login <savename>"

Tested On

  • ScummVM Daily 2022-12-22
  • The Shivah: Kosher Edition from Steam (.exe Properties lists it as version 3.5.1.13)

The same thing happens if you save while using the computer in Blackwell Convergence (and possibly others)
