Unknown line being displayed

So I am testing my character builder and when I run my test this is what happens

Let's create a character.
First what is your name?
Hi, Moonsaber
What is your gender?
1: Stallion
2: Mare
a character creator.

I am not sure where that last line is coming from. I have the character creator in a room called character creator but I don't have any descriptions of it nor anything that I think would make it called the room by name.


When you enter a room, the first thing it displays (above the description) is the alias of the room.

If you want to not display this, then you should have your character creator set the flag game.showdescriptiononenter to false before it starts, and then set that flag to true again immediately before moving the player to the first room where you want the description to display.


Another way to find "strange" stuff is to add a:
msg("here 1")
and other messages at selected points and see if you can trap the strange stuff between them...
I have found a few bugs that way...
One odd one... A function cannot include a Get Input... Quest just skips over the command and returns nothing, and complains about it.

One way to test mrangel's idea, and I bet he is right, add a room description and see if that is showed after the "a character creator".
