I found a bug: the game has a constant called CREATURES_COUNT. According to my calculations, it should be taken from the common.lua game file, which contains all the creatures from the original game, totaling 180. In your version, it is equal to 1000 (presumably due to some mods that add creatures).

I haven't heard of this; I would be glad to learn more. The map uses a custom-made dialogue engine, built as a wrapper around TalkBox. It is used everywhere and has not caused any problems so far.
Attention! In the localized versions of the patch, there is one necessary text file missing, which is required for the correct operation of TalkBoxForPlayers. You can simply create it:
File: UI/CommonBoxes/TalkBox/Text.txt
Content:File format: plain Unicode text (save as Unicode in NOTEPAD)
This file is recommended to be distributed as part of the map archives that use TalkBoxForPlayers.
