Not able to interrupt script with hotkey on latest version v3.3.16.1

[anonymous]

On v3.3.16.1 on a code like this you're unable to interrupt a script with a hotkey:

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Stop")

MouseClick("left", 300, 300)
MouseClick("left", 600, 300)
MouseClick("left", 600, 600)
MouseClick("left", 300, 600)
MouseClick("left", 300, 300)
MouseClick("left", 600, 300)
MouseClick("left", 600, 600)
MouseClick("left", 300, 600)


Func Stop()
    Exit
EndFunc

On the other hand a script like this will allow the script to be interrupted during the sleeps:

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Stop")

MouseClick("left", 300, 300)
Sleep(100)
MouseClick("left", 600, 300)
Sleep(100)
MouseClick("left", 600, 600)
Sleep(100)
MouseClick("left", 300, 600)
Sleep(100)
MouseClick("left", 300, 300)
Sleep(100)
MouseClick("left", 600, 300)
Sleep(100)
MouseClick("left", 600, 600)
Sleep(100)
MouseClick("left", 300, 600)


Func Stop()
    Exit
EndFunc

By rolling back to version v3.3.14.5 I'm able to once again interrupt the first script with a hotkey.
