BUG! Character Stuck in Dialogue/Action! Please help debug!
   

Ok, so I was trying to hammer my iron on the anvil right? When i pressed it, my character just stood there, with the camera on an angle (not behind character, it's suppose to do this). From here on, i cant press esc, it wouldnt give me the menu. So I trid to fix this by going into marvin mode, and i tried to press F8 to repositiion my character, but i still couldnt move, and the camera was sccrewed up. Well, so I saved the game by 'save game' command in console. When i laod it back, my char was movable, but I lost my 'focus', i couldnt target onto things, and when i try to talk to people, they dont say anythin.

It seems that the game thinks I'm still in the 'anvil' action and hasnt close that process. So I think i need to somehow debug the parameters, but i dunno how. I was going mad and pressing every button on my key oard and a menu popuped up showing the parameters of the charater like "Focus = Anvil , Action = waiting " etc. But i coulndt change these parameters or i dunno which button to pressto change them. Please help if u know how!


This happens sometimes with talking with people too, but i fixed it with loading a previous savegame. But this time, i dont have a prevoious savegame!

Missing dialog workaround:
- B, "marvin", B (replace B with the key assigned to the character screen)
- F2, "hero export bugfix", ENTER, "hero import bugfix", ENTER, F2
- B, "42", B (be patient - it takes a while)

Freezing dialog:
After double-clicking it might happen (esp. on low end systems or with buggy mouse/keyboard drivers) that the dialog system freezes. There is no other way out than: SHIFT-ESC and exit the game from the menu (neither save, load, nor start a new game in this situation - trust me, it won't help you anything).

I noticed whenever I try using the anvil during the nighttime, in the city of Khorinis, it gets locked in the "action" mode. My character just stands there hammering nonstop with no options available. The only way I could get out of the bug was to force quit out of the game. This bug only occurs during nighttime. I haven't tried any of the other anvils during the nighttime because I don't want to encounter the bug again. I don't know if it is just associated with that particular anvil or not.
