Description
By changing the error() call for the stub of o6_miscOps_108 to a warning(), the game continues. However, when I have Sam and Max ride the "Cone o'Tragedy", then take the claim ticket to the Lost & Found, I never get my inventory back. I go walk in, and the attendant tells Sam everything they've found today is his - but clicking the inventory button brings up an empty inventory. I don't see any stubbed functions getting called in the program's stdout/stderr, so I can only assume whatever routine it is that is supposed to save (or restore?) the inventory is not saving (or restoring?) it properly.

I tried this and found out that the inventory in fact _is_ restored, it's just that you can't see it (or select any objects from it). If you go to the Tunnel of Love for example, you can ride it (if you didn't have the inventory, Sam would complain that he didn't have a pass). After the Tunnel of Love ride, I could see and use the inventory again.
I couldn't play past the restaurant on top of the twine ball though, the game exited as soon as I walked into the restaurant.

Yeah, thats what I saw too.
Actually, thinking about it... what's probably happening is scummvm flushing the image data when it's moved between rooms.
Hummm.

I've just committed a nasty hack that works around an apparantly script bug in script 207 (room 15) - it should call script 52 (the 'add inventory item' script) for each item just in the loop.
As a hack I've put a hack in 'setOwner' to basically do this manually.
This part of Sam and Max now works. I'm leaving this bug open however, as the real problem should probably be located, instead of this workaround.

Now I can come till the crocodile golf... When I'm trying to enter the scene with the crocodiles swimming, the game ends with "a probably BIG error"...

Closing this, as sam and max seems to work fine - even with the hack. :)

Still havn't figured this one out.
The inventory appears to be reassigned correctly... Grr.
