Hmmm, I just realized that I had left some file-output code turned on in the latest build. This code writes out debugging information. I had added some debugging information to try to help me catch the map-key problem, where pushing M suddenly stops working to bring up the map... if I'm remembering the bug report correctly.
So... if any of you ever experience the map-key bug while playing 1.1.3, please look inside Home -> Library -> Application Support -> Midnight Mansion and send me the Output File Log by email. Do this right after you experience the m key not working. Tell me what room you were in when it wasn't working, and quit shortly after trying to push M and having it not work. The log *might* help me learn more about this weird bug.
Secondly, having this logging turned on may be the cause of the stutters. I'll make sure to disable it for the 1.1.4 release. Hopefully I'll get to that release in a month or two. Although if the problem is bad enough, I can possibly release an unofficial 1.1.3b patch to those interested.
