Why can't I close and save my script?

Post » Mon May 16, 2011 11:27 pm

Pretty much as the title says, I just started the scripting tutorial Cipscis made, I'm almost done and am at the Variables section now. I have no experience with programming, or scripting but I did manage to follow his tut and write the bobby pin script, I am trying to write a script and when I go to save it, bam no good it won't let me, my guess is the script is crap because it will let me save it with just the script name but not when I put my script in :facepalm:

I am trying to write a script to not allow you to open a door unless you have a high enough repair skill to "fix" said door. Being a total noob here is where I started, I just wanted to get my message to show when the door is activated

Scn WolfsBakeryDoorScript

Begin

Onactive
Showmessage NVIBakeryDoorMessage

End



I even tried to put the Showmessage line after Onactivate....any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Because apparently Obsidian is too good for the script error checker as they decided to disable it, as well as all other error messages.

Use http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36290 to re-enable them. With error messages active, it'll tell you which line is causing a compile error, and some gist of what your syntax goof is.
