Script Error!

Author	Topic: Script Error!
Challox Apprentice Member # 5578	written Tuesday, March 8 2005 12:27 Profile #0 In the scenario I'm working on, one of the things that happens in the first outdoor section is that the party can go over a small, outdoor cave terrain, which gives them some gold. The script for this part looks like this: beginstate 16; reset_dialog(); if (get_flag(200,6) == 1) end; message_dialog("Oddly, you find an abandoned cave. In the center of the small cavern there is a pentagram engraved on the floor and 5 sacks of gold. You make off with the gold, probably courtesy of an evil wizard somewhere. He's probably going to kill you someday.","Oh well."); set_flag(200,6,1); change_coins (1 * 200); break; The script works fine for when I first go over the cave, but if I run the party over the terrain square again, I get this message: o00Northwest Error: Missing ( in Line 84. Line 84 of the entire o00Northwest.txt script is highlighted here, in an encounter script: beginstate 14; reset_dialog(); if (get_flag(200,4) == 1) end; message_dialog("Tsigardia is known for its large variety of wild animals, some of them dangerous. You encounter a group of these- a pack of wolves. Wolves don't usually attack humans, but this pack must be unusually hungry.","It looks like these animals are the dangerous kind."); set_flag(200,4,1); break; The bold text is Line 84 of the file. This doesn't seem to be related in any way to the cave script... What's going on? Any help is appreciated. :) -------------------- What kind of idiot quotes himself? My kind of idiot!

BoA's line numbers in this regard are screwed, and all I can tell you is that it must be somewhere before the line that it's complaining about. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Challox Apprentice Member # 5578	written Tuesday, March 8 2005 13:02 Profile #2 What must have happened was that I never OPENED a set of parentheses earlier, since it says "Missing (". Thanks, now that I know not to trust the line numbers I should be able to find the problem. :) -------------------- What kind of idiot quotes himself? My kind of idiot!
