+// The character selection screen in room 140 can select the wrong character.
+//  The showOff script brings each through their door and sets showOff:register
+//  as they animate so that myChar:doVerb knows which animating character was
+//  clicked. showOff:register is supposed to be 1 - 3 but showOff sets the wrong
+//  fighter value and sets the rest at the wrong times.
+//
+// showOff state 0 sets register to 30 instead of 1 and so clicking the fighter
+//  door during the first four seconds doesn't select any character. Instead it
+//  proceeds to the skill screen without updating the character type global.
+//  This global's initial value is zero, which happens to be the fighter value,
+//  and so this appears to work unless a different character was first selected
+//  and cancel was clicked. The magic user and thief register values are correct
+//  but they're set one state too late, creating 2 - 4 second windows where
+//  clicking their doors selects the previously animated character.
+//
+// We fix this by setting showOff:register to the correct fighter value and
+//  setting the magic user and thief values one state earlier.
+//
+// Applies to: All versions
+// Responsible method: showOff:changeState
+// Fixes bug: #11002
