Description
This is a regression from 2.8.1 to 2.9.0git which I didn't have time to look up yet.
It happens in the very beginning of the game. For brevity I will now refer to the first room of the game (which is very wide as it contains both the space ship and the asteroid far view) as two separate rooms. A "room change" between these two actually appears to be a camera movement.
How to reproduce
- Start up the game and skip the intro with ESC
- Move the mouse to the right of the screen and double click a few times on the "asteroid" hotspot until the game immediately changes the room without a transition
- On the new screen perform the same double-clicking on the left side of the screen to go back to the previous room
What will happen then
The background will stay the same as if the room was never changed, while the actor will be in their correct state instead.
What should have happened
The background should have changed on room change.
I know, I know, I'm a SCUMM maintainer and I should fix it instead of filing a ticket, but with the things I have to finish before release I swear I'm going to forget about this if I don't file it... And I'm really not sure I ever touched the camera code.
Update: my 27e6b811d5105907ae8e75d4356e68408672773a commit broke this. Why am I not surprised? :-)
There must be something missing from the equation, the changes done there mirror the disasm...
