Map button bug
21.03.2007 at 00:27:37

I found this bug in both the game and the editor... for some reason, after you press map quite afew times, you can't go back to the map screen when you press "m!" Nothing happens! It happened to me while I was testing Ted. I just got to the last room I made, press "m" to look at all the rooms and it didn't work! And in the editor I tested and pressed "m," then found a bug, fixed it, tested again, pressed "m," nothing happened! I restarted the app. and it worked again. You'd have to suspend and quit and go back in in Midnight mansion... its a rare bug, but its there! Shocked

In a matter of fact there is also an other map bug. When starting the Midnight Mansion game for the very first time, the "M" for map does NEVER work. (E.g. at an other account on my computer.)

I need a work-around by first changing the keybutton in something else, e.g. "A". And when that works, changing it back to "M". Only then the "M" gives me my map.

That sounds like a problem having to do with non-U.S. keyboards, and I'm not really sure how I'd fix it.
