i recently tried adding dark times to one of my maps and everything seemingly works fine but i keep getting an luac returned 1 error in the munge
any idea what i messed up on
thanks in advance
addme.lua

Hidden/Spoiler:

--Search through the missionlist to find a map that matches mapName,

--then insert the new flags into said entry.

--Use this when you know the map already exists, but this content patch is just

--adding new gamemodes (otherwise you should just add whole new entries to the missionlist)

function AddNewGameModes(missionList, mapName, newFlags)

for i, mission in missionList do

if mission.mapluafile == mapName then

for flag, value in pairs(newFlags) do

mission[flag] = value

end

end

end

end

ReadDataFile("..\\..\\addon\\BDT\\data\\_LVL_PC\\dtshell.lvl")

--insert totally new maps here:

local sp_n = 0

local mp_n = 0

sp_n = table.getn(sp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1] = { 

isModLevel = 1, 

mapluafile = "Y4R%s_%s", 

era_g = 1,  

era_1 = 1, 

mode_con_g = 1, 

mode_con_1 = 1,}

change = {

era_1 = { name="Dark Times", icon2="darktimes_icon" },

},

}

-- associate this mission name with the current downloadable content directory

-- (this tells the engine which maps are downloaded, so you need to include all new mission lua's here)

-- first arg: mapluafile from above

-- second arg: mission script name

-- third arg: level memory modifier. the arg to LuaScript.cpp: DEFAULT_MODEL_MEMORY_PLUS(x)

AddDownloadableContent("Y4R","Y4Rg_con",4)

AddDownloadableContent("Y4R","Y4R1_con",4)

-- all done

newEntry = nil

n = nil

-- Now load our core.lvl into the shell to add our localize keys

ReadDataFile("..\\..\\addon\\Y4R\\data\\_LVL_PC\\core.lvl")

What was the exact error? It looks like you have an extra closing bracket.

change = {
era_1 = { name="Dark Times", icon2="darktimes_icon" },
},
}

You can edit these files in Notepad but it's best to use a real code editor since they use syntax highlighting and can identify bracket pairs which allow you to spot these error types quickly.
