BOTW #2

So apparently there is a bug that sometimes causes people to repeat what they last said when they start a morph. I ran into this in testing, made a change, and couldn't reproduce it. (Remember folks, make a reproducible test case before you "fix" the bug.) Unfortunately the bugs I'm getting don't really help me reproduce things. All I've got is that it sometimes happens. What I really need is a 100% reproducible example.

  2. Ya i've tested it by morphing and unmorphing into different morphs... sometimes it repeats the last thing you say, sometimes it doesn't. I'll say it's randomly 50% of the time it says it. But to repeat this whole thing, you will have to say something everytime you are unmorphed, before you remorph.
