Title: Input field is broken
Reproduction Rate: 100%
Blocker? Yes - game is unplayable
Details: Talked to arabella here and was unable to escape dialog at all or end the conversation - none of the clickable keywords worked - had to quit and reload. Logged back in - typing anything on the command line even trying to talk, or use /devbug - over and over - there is no carriage return after hitting enter - it just sits there.
Steps to Reproduce:
User Specs:
OS: Windows 10 (10.0.0) 64bit
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6800K CPU @ 3.40GHz (12) System RAM: 32679
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 GPU RAM: 8088
SotA.QA.Win.64.887.Date.11.15.19
Area: Novia_R3_City_Brittany
Area Display Name: Central Brittany
Loc: (205.4, 61.6, 87.3)
Debug: Tm92aWFfUjNfQ2l0eV9Ccml0dGFueXx8KDIwNS4zNTgsIDYxLjU5OSwgODcuMjU0KXwoMCwgLTAuNjMxLCAwLCAwLjc3Nil8MzAxLjAxNzZ8MTEuMDExMDh8My41NTQxMTc=

 

My game client is spewing this error non-stop:

Message
=======
NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

Time
====
11:15:59.277

StackTrace
==========
LuaManager.OnGUI () (at <d842d864c7c5407a8c8697413cfdf5d6>:0)

 

chris knows about this and is working on a new build. in the mean time, you can work around it:

/datafolder
make a folder named "Lua"
right click and make an empty text file
rename the file "empty.lua"
go back in game, clear anything out of the chat box if there is anything, and
/lua reload

 

It's fixed in 888 - nice.
