Looks like this bug is present at least since AGS 3.2.1.

The parser is generally a lesser used section I think, and then you still have to hit enter at a somewhat illogic moment, so not that surprisingly this minor issue stayed hidden that long :)

I've been trying to read through the entire thread, all the updates with the GUIs, the blending modes,  the rendering layers, the nested objects,  the constructors, the new format for dialogs export, etc.

My head is literally spinning from all the awesomeness.

I don't know if that's ever happened to any game before,  but... I genuinely think I'm coming back from Unity to AGS. 2 years ago, I had sacrificed convenience for power. And now I can come back.

In other words: THANK. YOU.

There should be a big update to 4.0 Alpha in about a week or two, but since a number of serious regressions were found since the previous update, I wonder if anyone could test whatever game they are making with AGS 4 using latest "nightly" build and see if anything is wrong:

(of course, making a project copy for this test just in case).
