# Headless test: run with
#   godot --headless -s res://tests/test_dialog_typing.gd
# Forgejo #149: "les dialogues doivent arriver petit a petit, avec un VFX
# associe a des dialogues de science fiction" - dialogs should arrive bit by
# bit, with an effect that reads as science fiction.
#
# The failure worth guarding against is not "it does not type" - it is the
# one that comes with typing: a player clicking at their usual pace skips
# the second line entirely, having never seen a word of it. #127 exists to
# stop exactly that, so a press on a line still arriving has to finish it
# rather than dismiss it.
#
# Covers:
#   A. a line arrives a character at a time rather than all at once
#   B. the text itself is set whole and REVEALED - growing the string would
#      re-wrap the line every frame and make words jump between rows
#   C. a press on a line still arriving finishes it and does not dismiss it
#   D. a press on a finished line dismisses it, as it always did
#   E. it types while the game is stopped, being the one node still running
#   F. the sci-fi part: the panel is drawn differently while decoding, and
#      settles when the line is complete
