Script bug: Erratic first print statement.

[selden]

In the following script, the first print statement is not printed if this is the first script invoked after Celestia has started. It is shown briefly the second time the script is invoked, and works properly the 3rd and subsequent times. (ps: the second print statement is always displayed properly.)

Code: Select all

{ timerate { rate 1.0 } print { text "Beginning demo " origin "center" duration 5 } wait { duration 6.0 }  print { text "Ending demo " origin "center" duration 5 } wait { duration 6.0 } }


This symptom is seen with all of the versions of Celestia that I've tested, including v1.2.4 and v1.2.5, although v1.2.4 ignores the "origin" and "duration" directives, of course.

Environment: 256MB, 500MHz P3, Windows XP Pro SP1; 128MB Nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4200, Detonator 40.72 drivers (OpenGL 1.4).
