62297: Control a character who has knocked on a door and is waiting for an answer
The address of this interruptible subcommand routine is placed into bytes 14 and 15 of a character's buffer by the routine at 62278. It makes the character continue to wait for someone to open the door, or give up and move on if he's already waited long enough.
