Problem with Lua's (Solved)

Post by Blade »

Here's the situation, I wanted the map that I am working on to be the Republic vs. the Empire. I opened up the lua's of each conquest era (***c_con ***g_con) and copied the ReadDataFile for the Imperial side. Replaced the ReadDataFile for the CIS side with the one for the Imperials. I then copied the SetUpTeams for the Imperial side, and replaced the SetUpTeams for the CIS side. I also changed the Republic's hero to rep_hero_obiwan_old, and called for him in the ReadDataFile. So this is what my ***c_con lua looks like:

function ScriptPostLoad()


--This defines the CPs. These need to happen first
cp1 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp1"}

Also, I was testing for the first time making the filesize smaller by reducing what the .req calls for, so here's my imp.req.
Hidden/Spoiler:
[code]ucft
{
REQN
{
"lvl"
"imp_droid_probe"
"imp_hero_darthvader"
"imp_hero_emperor"

"imp_inf_rocketeer_snow"
"imp_inf_sniper"
"imp_inf_sniper_snow"
"imp_veh_remote_terminal"

}
}
[/code]
I then munged, and got these errors.

Code: Select all

If anyone can help me figure out what I did wrong, it would be much appreciated :D.

You were missing a '}' after the setup for the Republic team.

Hehe... I was just double checking my MungeLog and noticed that it said expecting ' to close bracket.

Thank you very much, I'm just happy it was a simple, silly mistake :).

Re: Problem with Lua's

Just a little trick for the future:
at line 85
obviously means there's something wrong with line 85.
Open the LUA with notepad, press CRTL+G and enter "85". That'll bring you to line 85, where the problem is (or, possibly, you're missing a closing bracket you opened at line 85 on another line)

Saves you some time since you don't have to go through the entire LUA.

EDIT:

Uhh using the CTRL-G way:

Yes mr post below this one, that is correct.

I think when I deleted the calls for the fighter tank and AT AT I forgot to add the bracket back onto the end.

Argh, sorry for the double post, but it's still screwed up.

I, erm, realized I hadn't saved my .lua after I made the changes... :lol:. But when I cleaned and munged, I got a new error...

I think Xavious gave you one } too many.

And why do you have the imp setup bit twice?

Re: Problem with Lua's

Yes, I believe he did. I compared the ***c_con and ***g_con lua's, and there was one too many brackets. I made ***c_con look exactly like ***g_con. Testing now, (but check back in a few minutes for an edit if this doesn't work :P).

As for the imp bit, I noticed that, and I'm not sure, but I deleted it and any traces of... *shudders* brackets that were tied to it.

You have two imp sections in SetupTeams. Delete one of them.
