Bug/Game Crash

I ran into a bug which crashed the game and gave me an error message while playing. I came across it accidentally, so its not really a big deal. I had a basket, filled it with sand, and dumped it out right afterwards. This is the error message it gave me:

The game's great so far, thanks for making it.

I got this one while moving to sit down in Aziza's:

Room 80 script (line 1164)

Error: PlayAmbientSound: volume must be 1 to 255


(Something tells me mine might be 0 since I have the sound shut off? I dunno.)

Edit: This one happens every time, by the way, if you have the music shut off.

Yup, I have confirmed that the 2nd bug is caused by the music slider being set to the very bottom (value of 0) when you sit down at Aziza's table.

Haven't had any time to look into the OP's bug yet.

Why would anyone want to turn the wonderful music all the way off anyway?

Playing at 3.00 am with no other way to turn off the speakers (and being too dark/lazy to unplug them). :p

That, or you wanna be a biologist in your quest to discover new bugs. :lol

Guess you'll have to turn down the volume in Windows instead.

And, you know, the first bug in this series was on the Hero's Quest title screen. Pretty prophetic, considering this is one of the more bug laden of the Quest franchises :lol

The music is quite good, but sometimes I need to do other things with my ears while playing and the music's too much of a distraction. :)

At any rate, it's good that people are trying all these things because it's weeding-out undiscovered bugs that we didn't know about.

I noticed another volume-based bug. Turning both sound and music all the way down should completely mute the game, but the end of combat jingle will still be audible.
