#6722 WME: The Kite - Script runtime errors

One can force "Script runtime error"s when performing a certain action (that probably shouldn't be allowed)

Load the save and walk left until the cutscene kicks in.
Wait until the busy pointer is gone and the cutscene goes into close-up.
You can now choose items from your inventory (that should probably be omitted).
Choose the knife and wait for the cutscene to switch to Oleh facing his back at the screen.
The knife in your hands glows up meaning you can "act" with it...use the knife with Oleh and the Script runtime errors will come up.

As i said, the whole possibility to choose items in that cutscene should probably be omitted

Uhm. AFAIK we are basically running Mnemonic's script engine, I suspect that this could be an original game bug with P >= 0.6

Will have to test it with the original interpreter sometime to make sure.

Original game bug.

Checked with 1.3.e on windows.

Added a save from the original engine right before.

Double post, sorry

[Tobia Tesan]

I assume we can close this, right?

[Anonymous]

I guess it can be closed and marked as "original engine bug"?

[Tobia Tesan]

Not yet. Looks like what we do here is
1. Checking with the original developer if there is an updated version (or plans for one)
2. If not, we consider adding a workaround.
