SCI: SQ5: Weird Glitch on Kiz

Reported by: dafioram Owned by: sluicebox
Priority: normal Component: Engine: SCI

Cc: Game: Space Quest 5

Description

ScummVM: 1.10.0git-4029-g5c853fb
Tester OS: Win7-64
Game: Space Quest 5 DOS v1.04

On Kiz Urazgubi, while you are trying to defeat WD40 I was going to the left exist in the second area, while the robot was shooting me. Now I am sort of stuck because walking to the exists does nothing.

It doesn't let me exit the 3 exits and WD40 will not kill me. It is possible to unblock the exits blocking by using your comm device.

I am attaching the saved game before the glitch, but I can't reproduce, and the saved game during the glitch so you can explore the area with blocked exits.

Thanks! This was a script bug that would also occur in the original when WD40 appeared while Roger was in the middle of entering the left tunnel. The game's script explicitly tries to prevent this conflict but the code is incomplete. The patch fully prevents it from happening. (The existing save game will still be stuck.)
