[Bug] Script action "AmbientActivate()"

The action "AmbientActivate" (for area-animations) is buggy. If you activate an area-animation via this action, it most often doesn't start with the first frame and the whole sequence is played some kind of stuttery.

    Can you give a test case?

    Ah, further testing shows that this bug only occures when i choose "Partial Animation" via DLTCEP to play the area's animation only once. One of the frames plops in and that's all, the rest of the animation isn't played.

    I had this one down for TobEx, and was reported as a 'needs confirmation'. Good to have some further detail.

    I think it was me who reported that already in your TobEx-Thread ^^

    I detected that bug during my work on a Trials of a Luremaster conversion for Bg2. There is this illusionary stairway, that is always played once, when party-members enter a specific trigger-region.
    (IWD can use PlaySequence(O:Target*,I:Sequence*Sequence) for area-animations too)

    @Jarl - So is this still a bug that takes fixing? I'm not entirely sure how to word it properly. Could you provide steps to a repro case, and a detailed description of expected behavior?
