#3799 new defect
DRASCULA: slowdown when you hold mouse buttons

Description
I'm using the italian version of Drascula with the current SVN build (on Win32), and when I click anywhere on screen and hold the mouse button the game slows down. The save/load menu also has some glitches: when you type the name of the saved game some letters sometimes are not displayed and there is a strange gap from when you type to when the letter appears in the box. Wouldn't be better to adopt the standard SCUMM interface for the save/load menu (as in Nippon Safes Inc)?

At least some of this might be because the pause() and delay() functions don't process events.

Fixed in SVN and backported. The delays were used there pretty illogically. And each mousedown generated 200ms delay.

I fixed it by reacting on button up event in right mouse. Quite controversal one, but it was the only option without serious rework. Please test.

This happens again with ScummVM 2.6.0.
Just start the game (English version here) and keep the left-mouse button pressed when walking: all the characters slow down.
(Doctors would say "then, don't do this" though ;)

This code in drascula.cpp seems to be responsible for the slowdown:
if (_leftMouseButton == 1 && _menuBar) {
selectVerbFromBar();
} else if (_leftMouseButton == 1 && takeObject == 0) {
if (verify1())
return true;
delay(100);
} else if (_leftMouseButton == 1 && takeObject == 1) {
if (verify2())
return true;
}
When I try it, it enters the case where it calls delay(100) I don't know the purpose of that, though
This bug is nice to get fixed before the release.
