This issue has been resolved.
Descriptive Problem Summary:

Have two verbs with a common prefix; when using the arrow keys to select which one to complete to, the status bar claims a nonsense verb does not exist.

Probably related to http://www.byond.com/forum/?post=2355954.

Code Snippet (if applicable) to Reproduce Problem:
/client/verb/StartNow()
set name = "Start Now"

/client/verb/StartLater()
set name = "Start Later"

/client/verb/Borpo()
// for clarity


Expected Results:

No error messages.

Actual Results:



Does the problem occur:
Every time? Or how often? Every time.
In other games? Yes.
In other user accounts? Yes.
On other computers? Unknown.

When does the problem NOT occur?

When there is one possible verb to complete to.

Probably started in the same version as the previous bug; tested for presence in 1424-1426.

Workarounds:

Pretend the status bar message isn't there.
