Spacebar doubletap in interfaces with latest engine update.

Hello.

It looks like one of the latest engine updates caused a bug.

In interfaces when you write a name for your ship or name your save file if you tap a spacebar once it acts as if you tapped it twice (ERAS II). 

If you use engine version 163 - everything is fine. Once I updated to version 167 (missed 164-166) - bug appeared. 

I thought at first that it was a keybord problem. But once I got back to using version 163 - bug dissapeared.

This bug isn't critical. Most people wouldn't even notice. But it is there. Just decided to let you know.

Well I did make a change to that text input object of the interface, because there was a bug that the input would often lose focus and move to another element on the screen when space bar was pressed.  I only noticed this because we just introduced the ability to change the main character's name and I was experiencing that focus problem during testing.  Sounds like I may have introduced a different bug.  Thanks for the info and I will look into correcting it.

Yep, I see the problem and I got it fixed; tested for the character, ship and save name inputs.  Will be solved in next Maelstrom update.
