[4.2.3] Custom Intermission TextScreens don't take $ lookup

I don't know if it's by design or not, but I cannot use strings in an intermission TextScreen like so:

Code: Select all

Intermission EndEpisode1
{
	TextScreen
	{
		Background = "graphics/intermission/ep1/end1.png"
		Music = "D_HOPE"
		Text = "$TXT_E1_ENDSCREEN"
	}
}

It will just print "$TXT_E1_ENDSCREEN" even if it's defined in LANGUAGE.enu or any other language text file.

I have to use a TextLump, which makes the text not translatable.

I was advised to post it as a bug. If it is by design I'd really like an option to do this via a text lookup string for translation purposes.

From what I'm seeing in code, "$..." lines are handled correctly. Could you please post a runnable sample?

Run DOOM.WAD, play through E1M1 and exit... it should display the text string but it doesn't.
