Summary0010292: Game ignores inputs after too many announcements appear at once
DescriptionIf too many announcements appear, the game ignores almost all inputs, with the exception of "Esc" and "?". The only short-term fix i could find is to restart the whole game. Mainly appears in highly populated areas, or during combat against a group of opponents.
Steps To ReproduceVery slowly walk into a populated area during a lot of conversations, fight 4 zombies as the other 20 draw their weapons, fight an incredibly agile opponent and do a very slow attack, or just walk one tile.
TagsNo tags attached.

What happens if you press "enter"? There are probably multiple pages of announcements that you need to advance through. You can bypass this by changing the MORE setting in data/init/d_init.txt.

Yep, it works. I didn't know that was a thing. You need to make this more obvious. Anyway, i think you can close this now. Sorry for the trouble.
Edit: ignore this, it still doesn't work, but at least i got rid of the announcments now.
Edit 2: The game ignores all inputs except arrow keys, after my first move it works normally
