Hey there!

I'm having a similar issue, but it is when typing the words. I understand the engine doesn't differentiate the accents, but whenever I try to type them I get these ominous DEAD or META inputs before the letters with accents, which I imagine would be very confusing to the player trying to type with accents.

Is this normal? Does this happen to everyone?


Is this normal? Does this happen to everyone?

Yes, due to the way input in handled, one key at a time, which means that it detects when you press the “next letter needs an accent mark” key (i.e., the so-called “dead keys”), and it shows its name without  waiting for the next letter.

If you want, you can filter out these keys in line 275 of IFEngine/js/CRT.js, however the game’s license forbids modifications to its code, therefore i would avoid it.

Indeed, that is the system trying to input "dead key" and "meta key" and the game engine not knowing what to do with them, since those keys didn't exist in 1982. I will warn Federico but I doubt this will be fixed.

Hi @Rafagam, Thank you for the issue report. W e're fixing all. We'll release a patched version soon. :)

Hi Federico! I noticed a bug in the game. According to the map of the game, to the west of the dining hall you should find the kitchen, however the text that appears is for the vegetable pantry. Also, if you try to look at the stains, that you are supposed to see in the pantry, the game says that you don't see any, whereas if you tell it to look at the kitchen, the command works. This screenshot explains it better:


Hi @komarcell!

Thank you for the report, The problem is in AvventuraNelCastelloJS.js where the description pointed at the wrong i18n.js key. My fault.  I've fixed in the upcoming version that will be released soon.

:)
