#16732: ACCESS: Martian Memorandum - Incorrect dialogue when attempting to move
chair in starting office
-------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
Reporter: vonmillhausen | Owner: (none)
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: Engine: Access
Version: | Keywords: Access, Martian, Memorandum
Game: Martian Memorandum |
-------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
**ScummVM Version**: Tested `ScummVM 2026.2.1git25327-g717e3a4185b`, as
well as release versions `2026.1.0` and `2026.2.0`
**Game Language**: English
**Game Version**: DOS
**Host OS**: Windows 11 `25H2 (26200.8246)`
**Steps To Reproduce**:
1. Start the game, and skip through the intro until you're standing in
your office
2. Select the "MOVE" option from the toolbar
3. Click on the upper of the two chairs on the right of the desk (don't
click the ComLink
**What Should Happen**: You should get a pop-up window titled `CHAIR` that
says `THAT WON'T MOVE`; dismissing this box should return you to regular
interactive play. I verified this behaviour using the exact same game
files in Dosbox.
**What Actually Happens**: You first get a pop-up window titled `CHAIR`
that says `THAT WON'T MOVE`, but then you get a second pop-up window
titled `CHAIR` that reads `GREY GOVERNMENT ISSUE FILING CABINET. DENTED
AND SCRATCHED WITH MANY YEARS OF USE.` - this is the description when you
use the `LOOK` option on the filing cabinet, and should not be displayed
for the chair (especially not in a window titled `CHAIR`).
