Message too quick on level 1? #2

Closed davidk64fnq closed 1 year ago

When I enter the room where man in robes teleports me to castle I read the description of the man in robes then press return and immediately get teleported without a chance to read the rest of the message. I tried setting time delay to 5000 but didn't make any difference. Is there supposed to be a press return prompt after second message displayed so I can read it before the teleport happens?

Hi David.

This is on level 1 and it had me wondering for years what it was when I was playing when I was a teenager.

If you are using an emulator you may be able to see the message if you slow it down.

I noted your observation, and I will introduce a delay there in my list of things to fix.

Thanks for communicating this with me.

Eric

The message is:

A STRANGE GLOW SEEMS TO EMANATE FROM THIS ROOM. IN THE CENTER, A SMALLISH MAN IN A LONG ROBE TURNS TOWARDS THE PARTY AND SHOUTS, "BEGONE, STRANGERS!" HE THEN BEGINS WAVING HIS HANDS, AND INTONES THE WORDS, "MAPIRO MAHAMA DIROMAT"
