Script problem

[Miss Sakaki]

It's probably right under my nose, but this has been frustrating me for a while. The weird thing is that I'm pretty sure it's only started happening since updating to WeiDU-190. When attempting to install, I get this message:

 

[Nathaniel-ToB/script/FHNAT25.baf]  ERROR at line 36 column 30-30
Near Text: )
Not_found
ERROR: parsing [Nathaniel-ToB/script/FHNAT25.baf]: Not_found
ERROR: error compiling [Nathaniel-ToB/script/FHNAT25.baf]: Not_found

 

Lines 35-37 in the script are these:

 

!AreaType([DUNGEON])
!See([ENEMY])
!Range([NEUTRAL],10)

 

If anyone could tell me what I've written wrong in the script, that would be great.

 

Edit: Sorry, please move to the right forum (that's what comes of posting when tired, I guess).

These type of things are usually due to a missing tilde either above or below the reported line.

 

Can you post more of your code if this is not the case?

[Miss Sakaki]

Yeah, this is the whole script block:

 

IF
Global("NathRomanceActive","GLOBAL",2)
See(Player1)
RealGlobalTimerExpired("NathRomance","GLOBAL")
CombatCounter(0)
!InWatchersKeep()
!AreaType([DUNGEON])
!See([ENEMY])
!Range([NEUTRAL],10)
Global("FHExpLoveTalk","GLOBAL",9)
Global("MetBal","GLOBAL",1)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
IncrementGlobal("FHExpLoveTalk","LOCALS",1)
MoveViewObject(Player,INSTANT)
Interact(Player1)
Wait(1)
END

 

And it's the !See([ENEMY]) line that WeiDU doesn't like.

Have you successfully used InWatchersKeep() before? Because it's listed as 'not tested' (NT) in IESDP and I can't find examples of it with NearInfinity from the original game's scripts or dialogues.

 

Also, I never put Increment/SetGlobal() in the same block with Interact() or Dialogue(), because that might cause the talk not to fire if the player accidentally orders the NPC to do something else (like to walk somewhere) when he/she is just about to start the dialogue. Though, since I've not used MoveViewObject(Player,INSTANT) when triggering talks I'm not sure if that changes the situation.

MoveViewObject(Player,INSTANT)

Oh, shouldn't that be player1. I don't think player is a valid object.

[Yovaneth]

MoveViewObject(Player,INSTANT)

Oh, shouldn't that be player1. I don't think player is a valid object.

The other possibility is that 0x22 NEUTRAL is missing from EA.ids. It isn't in there as released from Bioware.

 

-Y-

[Miss Sakaki]

Oh, shouldn't that be player1. I don't think player is a valid object.

 

Yes! Now it works fine. Thank you very much - it's so often the little things, isn't it?

[Miss Sakaki]

Would having it as !InWatchersKeep() rather than a synonym make a difference or can I leave it as is?

[jcompton]

The game doesn't care what synonym you use.
