Engine malfunction whne attaching action to my mdl

Hi all,

I made a simple plane model with three boxes in med. The object shows up without any errors or error messages when I just put it into the level, but as soon as I assign any action to it (even the standard template scripts) it says the following when I start the engine:

Engine malfunction W1301
<testplane.mdlplayer_move>:can´t open file

in this example testplane.mdl is the object and player_move is the action

If i try this or any other action on a template mdl (ie the fish) it works just fine. My own scripts work fine too.
Whats wrong?

It appears to be a syntax error. The engine is trying to load a model called

quote:

---

<testplane.mdlplayer_move>

---

which doesn't exist.

So, somewhere in your wdl script there is a semi-colon or something else missing.

If you use a script editor like WSE (links page) it will show you where the error is located, and saves a lot of coding time.

I hope this helps.
