New description:

 ScummVM v2.2.0
 Fate of Atlantis CD Talkie
 macOS 10.14.6 (Catalina)

 PLAYING WITH SUBTITLES ONLY

 When playing Fate of Atlantis, pressing "." (skip dialogue) the game skips
 several lines at once. This means you miss important plot points.

 As intended (and with all other Scumm based games), pressing "." skips the
 line visible on the screen. For some reason in FOA several lines are
 skipped at once.

 For example, Heimdall in Iceland. If you ask him about the Atlanteans and
 press the . key, you will get Indy's reaction instead of just skipping the
 current line Heimdall is saying.

 The can be seen again with Costa on the Azores. Ask him where Atlantis is
 and press . and you will get Indy's response without hearing him describe
 how the Azores is Atlantis.

 As someone who has played through Scumm games for decades, I regularly use
 the . to skip dialogue I have read. I have never had this issue before.
 Thanks!
