SCI: SQ4: Player moves back when going north from the 1st screen

Reported by: SF/diffusevm Owned by: m-kiewitz
Priority: normal Component: Engine: SCI
Version: Keywords: original script
Cc: Game: Space Quest 4

Description

ScummVM version: ScummVM 1.3.0svn53670 (Oct 21 2010 20:05:43) Features compiled in: Vorbis FLAC MP3 RGB zLib FluidSynth Theora

Bug details: On the first game screen, if you try to go up one screen, you get to the screen, but the player automatically returns to the first screen. This also occurs on the Latex Babes planet, if you go two screens left, one down and up again - you get stuck in the bottom of the screen and if you try to move the game moves you one screen down. I attached a save game for the second scenario. I tested the first scenario under DosBox and it doesn't happen there.

This is a known bug in pathfinding. It occurs in DOSBox, but only with cycles=max. See : http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/SCI/Bugs#Space_Quest_4

Note that this does not occur when cranking the speed slider all the way up, for some odd reason

comment:8 by bluegr, 14 years ago

This is a bug with the original game scripts, and is timer related. It occurs in the original as well. As mentioned, it is resolved when cranking the speed slider all the way up in ScummVM.

Two workarounds for this: either put the speed slider to its maximum setting, or go right, up, left (or left, up, right) to access that screen

Closing this then
