I went to this class a week ago and we used GameStudio 6 amd when i was there even the teacher of the class couldn't get our script to work in for my level.

The error is

<1>
script10.wdl 15:0 Error (126): Syntax Error - missing {


MY Script is

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

var video_mode = 7; // 800x600 pixels
var video_depth = 32; // 32 bit mode

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

string work10_wmb = "work10.wmb"; // define the string associated to the name of the level

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

function main()
{
level_load (work10_wmb);
while(1)
{
if(key_b){
camera.x = camera.x + 1;
}
wait(1);
}
}

action rotate_plane
{
var rotationstuff = 0;
while(1)
{
if(key_cuu){
my.tilt += 1;
}
if(key_cud){
my.tilt -= 1;
}
if(key_cul){
my.pan += 1;
}
if(key_cur){
my.pan -= 1;
}
if(key_w){
c_move(my, vector(5,0,0), nullvector, glide);
}
if(key_s){
c_move(my, vector(-5,0,0), nullvector, glide);
}
if(key_a){
c_move(my, vector(0,5,0), nullvector, glide);
}
if(key_d){
c_move(my, vector(0,-5,0), nullvector, glide);
}

camera.pan = my.pan;
camera.tilt = my.tilt;
camera.x = my.x;
camera.y = my.y;
camera.z = my.z;
wait(1);
}
}

the script is just for 1st person movement. Please help. And if there is a prewritten code or a step i missed when adding the script to my level please reply to this.

Took me just ten seconds to find it:

Code:

---

function main()
{
level_load (work10_wmb);
while(1)
{
if(key_b){
camera.x = camera.x + 1;
}
wait(1);
}
}

You have 3 }'s but only 2 {'s and that's what's causing it.

Sorry uli but looks like you were 10 seconds to fast:

function main()
{
level_load (work10_wmb);
while(1)
{
if(key_b){
camera.x = camera.x + 1;
}
wait(1);
}
}

Ah, I didn't see the brace after that if statement. I'm used of having it on the line below which is what messed me up. I rechecked it and there's nothing missing then. Although I'm not sure if it makes a difference, shouldn't the main function be at the very bottom?

@uli: Yeah took me to find out that there are brackets behind the if statement, and I also like it more in the next line

I would also try to move the function main to the bottom, but I dunno why it should caus a "Missing {" error

action rotate_plane
{
var rotationstuff = 0;
while(1) {
if(key_cuu){
my.tilt += 1;
}
{
if(key_cuu){
my.tilt += 1;
}
if(key_cud){
my.tilt -= 1;
}
if(key_cul){
my.pan += 1;
}
if(key_cur){
my.pan -= 1;
}
if(key_w){
c_move(my, vector(5,0,0), nullvector, glide);
}
if(key_s){
c_move(my, vector(-5,0,0), nullvector, glide);
}
if(key_a){
c_move(my, vector(0,5,0), nullvector, glide);
}
if(key_d){
c_move(my, vector(0,-5,0), nullvector, glide);
}
}
camera.pan = my.pan;
camera.tilt = my.tilt;
camera.x = my.x;
camera.y = my.y;
camera.z = my.z;
wait(1);
}
}
theres 2{ and 1}
add the letter in blue

i just tryed the code and it works fine the way it is. i don't know whats wrong.

bot190: also wrong the } of the while(1) loop is behind the wait(1);

I cannot see any failure aswell.
Is this really all of your code? no includings nothing after this script or before it?

EDIT:
You might also do the following:
Open WED -> open your level -> go to File -> Map Properties and see if in the "script box" the right file is loaded.

be sure to check your ENTIRE wdl file closely

you could have a loose { or ; someplace your not looking ( like a long empty space at the bottem with a { or ;

formatting your work helps to not only read it, but to find errors
here is your script above just as posted. I don;t readly see any formatting errors in it which is why it suggests you got other stuff in that wdl file then your posting

( i didn;t change a thing other than adjusted the formatting)

I don't know why I even bother; I'm too slow to keep up with users like Grimber.
