Comment (by m-kiewitz):

 Timing in SCI is normally done either in cycles (CPU-dependent) or
 seconds. Seconds should be fixed duration. The cycles method caused all
 sorts of timer issues when ran on faster CPUs, but we got the speed
 throttler for that, and also script patches.

 I don't know anymore how SCI games handle timed message boxes, would have
 to look into it.
