Description
Reopening bug #739463, because it's easily reproducable, even with today's CVS version: -Play until the beginning of Part II (savegame for the german version attached) -Leave and enter the fort for a couple of times (seven times, at least on my system) -ScummVM opens the console, reporting "ERROR (14:19:0x59): Too many scripts running, 40 max".

Just to clarify something here, bug #739463 never was closed, it was only set to "pending" because I was waiting for an answer. And you didn't reopen it either, you filed a new bug report.

I don't have my COMI handy right now, but least this sounds like finally a good way to reproduce the problem (re-entering the fort 7 times, that sounds like we don't quite a script properly, or something like that).

Your save game unfortunately doesn't load for me - or rather, it does load, but then is frozen.
Stsill, I can reproduce the problem with a save game of my own. What happens is that script 88 is run up to 15 times in parallel, and script 112 8 times; and various other scripts run, too. So maybe we just have to increase the maximum count of allowed parallel script from 40 to, say, 60. BUT I am not 100% sure on this - because script 88, while apparently having a max. of 15 instances, seems to be run *16* times. If it wasn't for that, 40 script slots might suffice. Investigating...

To elaborate a bit on what I said: script 88 is for the chickens. Indeed one script runs up to 15 of them, but there is one additional added by another script, so that's fine. In my tests, only intermediately are more than 40 scripts running (41 or 42). So it's still quite possible that we are doing something wrong, either in the way we execute the scripts (the order etc.) or in some of the startScript opcodes.
Still, the easiest fix will be to increase the max script count to say 80. I'll do that in the next save game revision.
