(v19, linux)
Normally inventory / char. screen shortcuts aren't functional during an enemy turn. But there is a small window of opportunity: when they are pulling or changing weapons at hand.
For example, I was testing it on mafia, seeing a guy pulling out a gun. I'm not sure whether it's changing weapons in active hand, or really some inventory operation (equipping the gun from the backpack). Anyway, once this is happening I can press inventory / char. screen shortcut and see what he's got...
See attached images.

How to get the worst freeze possible (not guaranteed):
-- What shall one do once in enemy's inventory?... Drop all items!
-- So did, dropped everything, including gun at hand. (see attached image for illustration)
-- But remember, even when in the inventory of one of the enemies the battle is still ongoing
(see the thread about combat shortcuts still working there)
-- So I don't know what exactly happened, whose items were dropped in the end...
-- But the bag was under the feet of the first ally who got the turn afterwards.
-- Once the battle proceeds the game totally freezes during a turn of one of the enemies.
-- Nothing works anymore, had to kill the process externally.
Now having the log THIS BIG: 3.2G (no errors though)
I'm really not sure, but I think managed also to drop ammo or so. In the log, many many many lines like this:

...Perpetuum mobile for reload orders? :o
The problem is, even when tried several times I wasn't lucky to recreate such freeze afterwards. it's only strong suspicion that this relates to tinkering with items of enemies.

If I didn't laugh I'd probably cry... : )
-
Fixed! Mind control of enemies is no longer possible!
-
No problem. Will find another way...
Was so fun, poor things didn't know what hit them:)
As for the loop producing reload orders, perhaps some safety break? Or else I'll send you the log.

Yeah send it on if you have it - I think they were trying to reload their fists, so not surprised there was a problem.
