What you see above is a show choices window that is supposed to have two choices. Instead, I have a blank box that I cannot exit or choose anything from, effectively making this a game breaking bug.

The event that this bug is only accessible when a Switch 24 = ON. All the parts of the event activate and play out as they should, until the show choices menu pops up and then it all goes to poop. There aren't any other show choice commands that have this problem (as far as I can see), this is the only one.

I've tried trouble-shooting and one thing actually worked, I removed the need for the switch to be on in order for this event to activate. The event activated and played out just fine. As a matter of fact, that is the ONLY thing that makes it work. I've tried everything, but removing that switch is the only thing. So I had a thought, why not just put everything into a conditional branch that requires Switch 24 to be on. Nope, same problem occurred.

I have absolutely no clue what the issue is. It just seems like this event does NOT want to work with switches.

EDIT: Switch 23, not 24 (doesn't really matter tbh)
