Breaking tutorial script

[Kiscsirke]

When the tutorial tries to build you your first lumberjack, you can easily move your screen away before it does. Then, when it tries to click on the offscreen location, the game just crashes out to desktop (for me on Windows), without error handling.

One possible solution would be that when the cursor gets to the edge of the screen, it drags the screen with it, though I don't know how hard that would be to implement. But at least some error handling would be nice.

I assign this to SirVer, as this is almost definitely a bug with Lua.

thanks for testing the tutorial! all feedback is most welcome. I pushed a fix for this into my tutorial_mission branch, could you check this out?

Okay, this part works now, one more thing I found:

When the script builds me a road, if I hold down the Ctrl key, I place
a flag mid-way. If I do this when it first connects the lumberjack, I
can make the scenario unwinnable: it says "not so hasty", destroys the
road, and does this again if I try to replace the road. So, the
lumberjack can't have a road, and it can't be finished. If I do this
while he connects the quarry, it just looks a bit stupid that he only
destroys the first half of the road, not the whole.
