[0.983] Blight Scroll malfunctions when used from loot pop-up

from Elemental Forums

In 0.983 you added a "use" button to the loot pop-up. Normally this button works, but when I tried using it with the Blight Scroll, the spell simply didn't trigger.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Loot Blight Scroll from something like a goodiehut, monsterlair or quest

2. When this popup appears press Use

3. The scroll is consumed, but the spell is never cast. No visual effect, no effect on population in cities.

 

The scroll functions as normal when used from the Equipment (unit details) screen.

Yeah, im sure the fix would be simple.  I just didnt think that scroll was very interesting to find.

This same issue happened to me with the Strength scroll.  It looks like there is pervasive issue with the "Use" button and scrolls found in loot.
