Summary0006597: If menu doesn't have enough time to open from the game when summoned the first time then it will never open
DescriptionThis happens when the user presses esc key twice too fast. It also means that it will be more difficult to quit the program.

This was discovered in TDM 2.12/64 #10651, but is also reproducible in dev build TDM 2.13/64 #10920.
Steps To ReproduceWhen TDM works as expected:
* Start TDM and load a saved game
* Press esc and wait for the menu to appear
* Press esc and return to the game
* Press esc twice fast
* Menu opens and closes fast and game continues
* User can switch between game and menu with esc no matter how fast they press esc (expected)
* Close TDM

To provoke the issue:
* Start TDM and load a saved game
* Press esc twice fast
* The menu does not have time to open before game continues
* Press esc
* Game pauses and the pointer appears but there is no menu (unexpected)
* Press esc
* Game continues
* User cannot reach menu or easily quit TDM
* Bring up TDM console, type "exit", press enter to exit TDM
