Description

Game: Police Quest 4 DOS / French
ScummVM: eedbb7df4e256e752c861b1828cd4b1ac55d59bc

During the first day, after receiving a phone call from Emmo, Carey's informant, going back to the crime scene triggers a shooting. Trying (and succeeding?) to hit the gunman with your hand gun causes the following error:

[VM] kPalVary(SetStart): signature mismatch in method getHit::changeState (room 170, script 170, localCall ffffffff)!
parameter 0: 0000:008d (integer), should be null, integer
parameter 1: 0000:0002 (integer)
parameter 2: 0000:0064 (integer)
parameter 3: 0000:0002 (integer)

To reproduce, load the attached save game and:

  1. Use your car to go to the crime scene
  2. Hide behind your car
  3. Put your kevlar jacket
  4. Hit the gunman using your hand gun

The error may or may not be related to the following warning I got right before:
WARNING: Uninitialized read for parameter 2 from method hideAndSeek::doit (room 170, script 170, localCall 26ef)!

It is also happening in GOG, Windows, English version.
OS: Win7-64
ScummVM: 1.10.0git-3459-g9bb9c0d

This is caused by getting hit not hitting the gunman. It doesn't happen if you are shot before crouching down or if you have the shotgun. You can actually hit the gunman multiple times with the handgun and it will work fine, but first time you get shot it (before getting the shotgun) it will crash.
