Please use hide tags with large bodies of code next time, -Staff

please read the tutorial again carefully and follow it exactly, we cant continue this forever

I am very sorry staff but I do not know how to use hide tags can you teach me I did look at the FAQ. OK back on subject now I am getting this error I did read the tutorial aging darthduck

off topic Sorry staff that I don't know how to us hide tags.

Your lua has a basic, obvious mistake in it. You could not fail to notice it if you had read any tutorial. As duck said, we can't go on doing this forever. Read this.

As for hide tags, use them like this:

Code: Select all

[Hide] text [/Hide]

Both DarthD.U.C.K. and I have given you enough information to fix your problems. I really don't know what else will help you.

Yoyoman, this happens every time. I think it is time to acknowledge the fact that there is only so much we can do for you. Basically, what you did here was you got everyone to do almost the whole script without you doing very much at all. Seriously, stop this and try figuring it out yourself.

it always suprises me again how people actually dont read the errors.

I did.

then why are you saying you dont know why it crashes?

Code: Select all

C:\BF2_ModTools\ToolsFL\Bin\luac.exe: ..\..\common\scripts\ABC\ABCc_con.lua:77: `)' expected near `,'

the error is pretty plain

to solve the mystery: in your "AVCc_con.lua you forgot a ")" near a "," probably in line 77

yoyoman · Post by **yoyoman** » Mon Oct 11, 2010 6:31 pm

What do you mean by a line?

Edit Is it like

Hidden/Spoiler:

--This defines the CPs. These need to happen first

line 1 cp1 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp1"}

line 2 cp2 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp2"}

line 4cp4 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp4"}

I like to be red a lot-----------------------line 3
I drew many famous pictures--------------line 4
I really am a cool crayon!-----------------line 5

@yoyoman
This part of your script is really messed up:

Please fix this and tell us what tutorial told you to do that so we can have it removed!

Press_Tilty · Post by **Press_Tilty** » Wed Oct 13, 2010 11:44 pm

Yoyo, adding sides is really easy (Making them is the hard part). If you follow tutorials, they will work. Please check your work before posting "my lua doesn werk! help me"

Ace is right, that is messed up, and you would have caught it if you checked your work. We aren't your teachers, we're not going over your work. I don't know how many times I've caught something like that after munging, and checking. (Except one rather embarrassing time).

Also, read your errors, I've gotten a ton of those, and fixed them. The line's aren't right, just estimate, and check whatever block you end up in.

Test yourself:

1. "blah_inf_blahtrooper"
2. blah_inf_blahtrooper") or
3. "blah_inf_blahtrooper"
"blah_inf_rocketblah"
