MINOR BUG: This game will not start in full screen unless you refocus it. I did this in Ubuntus GNOME enviroment using the ALT and TAB focus switching feature to switch to PlayOnLinux and then back to the game.

I recently upgraded my PC, before this upgrade I also encountered this bug during Pizza Syndicates setup program and had to refocus it between each menu to progress and to finish the setup after the pizza countdown reached 100.

I have not encountered any other bugs in the testing I have done so far.


Heres a screen shot, with GNOMEs focus switcher proofing that Pizza Syndicate was running in Linux.

1) You should place
POL_SetupWindow_install_wine "1.1.43"
Use_WineVersion "1.1.43"
before
POL_SetupWindow_prefixcreate

2) You should quote path here
wine $CDROM/SETUP.exe

3) You should check CD before creating prefix.

Does this happens in Metacity or it is only Compiz bug? If it's general bug then please place note for a user what he has to do to gain focus on game.

It does not happen in Metacity which I'm using now, I think I was using Compiz when I encountered this bug during this games setup in my previous Ubuntu installation.

I think you can send this script to validation so I could add it to official database.

I mistakenly wrote this referring to whether or not this bug occurred during the games install in Metacity. It does happen in Metacity when you start the game.

I will add a note at the start of the installation.

Is this message good enough?

For me it's good enough.
