SCI: HOYLE4: Accidental soft-lock possible in Euchre
| Reported by: | Karunamon | Owned by: | sluicebox |

Description
This title uses the right mouse button as a shortcut to move a card to the most logical place.
If you begin a game of euchre, and pick up the card on the stack in front of you, you can double right click on your hand and put down an extra card that you shouldn't be able to. You now have one less card than everyone else, eventually it will be your turn and you have nothing to play. The only thing you can do at this moment is leave the game.
This problem does exist on the original DOS executable, and ScummVM reproduces it accurately.

The script was missing a HandsOff call that similar scripts have. Now input is disabled as soon as that first special discard begins.
I tested this the best I could without knowing Euchre, so if there are any issues with this fix just re-open this ticket. I'm not expecting any though; this seemed straight forward.
Thanks again!
Thank you for reporting this and confirming it's an issue in the original game.
I'm happy I don't have to learn euchre (again??) to investigate this =)
