Hello, just want to say that this bug is still present. It may very well be
something with the X11 driver in Wine. When you run the game in a virtual
window, the menu works absolutely flawless. My friend and I were talking and he
told me about how the menu is a poorly written VB program, and each submenu
opens up another window that is not seen by the WM or DE. So if you click on
"Configuration" from the main menu, another window actually pops up infront of
the previous window you just saw. So when it's under the virtual window using
the emulated Windows window manager, that might be why it works so well due to
something unimplemented in the X11 driver. I suppose it could still be
something unimplemented in the VB libs wine provides (that's actually the
reason for another bug), but I just don't think that's it considering what I
just previously mentioned. I could totally be wrong though, so I just hope this
info gives someone who knows what they're doing an idea as how to fix this.
