in The Road to v1.2
I've only briefly played just to spot any immediate bugs and everything is working well except for map scrolling. Using both the mouse and the direction keys to scroll, I get screen tearing, a single line about a quarter of the screen from the top.

In addition, I get a slight lag or stutter every now and then. which again only happens when scrolling the map. Two main times I remember the stutter was on the road heading north to Friendly Arm Inn in the area south of the Friendly Arm Inn, and passing through the gates of the Friendly Arm Inn.

While not hardware related, the game pauses when any menu option is opened, but when switching to the Journal, Both Spell Books or Options the game will Unpause. The Inventory and Record screen Pause the game as expected.

Computer Specs:
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (6.1, Build 7601)
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3820 CPU @ 3.60GHz (8 CPUs), ~3.8GHz
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series

    Issue now listed here

    The game should be paused on any screen other than the gameplay or minimap screens

    1. Start a new game with Abdel
    2. Move the screen so that Abdel is on the left edge of the screen
    3. Open the Inventory (I)
    4. Notice that the game pauses (Abdel doesn't move)
    5. Open the Journal (J)
    6. Notice that the game unpauses (Abdel moves)

    The game should be paused.

    Additional Notes

    This issue affects the Priest Spells, Wizard Spells, Journal, World Map, and Options screens.

    Thank you @Dee.

    So after some more playing around, I found out that turning on V-Sync in the ATI Control Panel stops the screen tearing, however it still stutters when scrolling. I'm not sure how I can show the stuttering to you guys.

    Hopefully you guys are able to test similiar hardware to mine internally.

    The screen tearing and stuttering is not their on the current build, only the beta.
