#5156 SCI: QFG2: Game can hang in desert

Quest for Glory 2 (Dos/English)
ScummVM 1.2.0SVN 51733
Windows 7 x64

In the desert, when you get into a fight when riding the saurus it will run away. To get it back you have to leave and reenter the screen. The game will then automatically have you ride it again. However, if you input "Ride" again while you have time to input, the game will hang and you'll have to reload.

Seems lika a timing/script bug yet again, which shouldn't happen during "regular" gameplay, thus lowering priority

script patch added in commit 53f9dac75ef0c0c22c513068eaccf8c96457a438

it is a game bug and also occurs, when using the original interpreter

command "ride" disables controls and a proximity check triggers mounting again, which disables controls a second time. Controls are only re-enabled once, which means controls stay disabled. My patch is risky and may break something, but the bug is really complicated and this was the best way I could come up with.
