Text Log gets stuck on screen

[drojf]

We had this report on tatarigoroshi on discord:

The problem: I've been playing Tatarigoroshi after downloading the mod, but sometimes when opening the text log, it freezes and does not let me close it or scroll. The only thing it let me do was open the menu, but then even clicking "exit scenario" didn't actually close it, just removed the characters and kept the log in place. It's happened twice and has to restart the game to get rid of it. Idk if anyone's also had this problem.

Reproduction Instructions: Not sure, it seemed to happen randomly when opening the text log

me: have you only encountered this issue on tatarigoroshi? or other chapters as well?

Just Tatarigoroshi. I’ve only tried playing it twice and it happened both times.

The use provided some more info:

Sorry to interrupt for a sec. @drojf It happened twice more. Here's a screenshot from the latest time. I opened the log right after loading a quick save.

I hit exit scenario, so Irie's sprite disappeared and the music stopped. I'm not sure if it is. I'm almost done anyway so it doesn't bother me or anything, just wanted to let you know.
I think it happened before after opening the log immediately after opening another save. That may be a part of it.

I managed to reproduce it with the following steps (on any game):

1. Put mouse cursor over the "Quick Load" button
2. Try to scroll up and click repeatedly
3. With the right timing, both the Log screen and the "Load Data" prompt will come up at the same time
4. Click "Load data"
5. The load will succeed, but the textlog will be stuck on screen

You can also cause various other UI freezes by doing the following. I'm pretty sure these happen in the base game too.

1. Put your mouse cursor over any button (I tried the log and menu button)
2. Repeatedly press left and right click
   • optionally, you can mousewheel up and down while you're doing this, but not necessary
3. the log/menu will get stuck on screen

I was already aware that the base game has lots of edge cases in the UI where this can happen, but at least we've recorded this behavior and repro instructions for it now.

I've added a note in the wiki for now in 07th-mod/wiki@b6e3627. I don't think the issue should be closed though, as it's a pretty annoying bug if it does happen.
