Known Bugs
- When entering the life support section, the door behind you is briefly shown as already closed before closing for real. This does not happen in DOSBox with version 8.49 (but I'm told it did happen in version 8.43).
- Clicking on an inventory object name gives the spinning inventory object an incorrect palette. It may have to do with the setPalette() calls in UserInterface::selectObject(). They look strange to me since, as I understand it, they take the first colors of _mainPalette and copy them to the 8th and 247-248th color entries of the backend's palette.
- Similarly, the setPalette() call in Dialog::restore() looks strange as well, but I haven't noticed any visible glitches from that.
