How do I end a plotscript with tags in it? And I mean LOTS of tags.


:???:

I don't understand the question. You are asking how you end the plotscript? Are you getting an error message when you try to compile/import the plotscript?

If so, you can copy-paste the error message, or post a screenshot.

You can also post the text of the script here, or if it is too long, put it up on pastebin.com and put a link to it here.

Sorry to confuse you.

...Well... I think I can provide you with a similar, shorter plotscript. The one I'm using, you see, would just be way too long.

Code: Select all

plotscript, script1, begin
if (check tag (tag: tag1)==on) then, begin
set tag (tag: tag2, off)
set tag (tag: tag3, on)
???

plotscript, script2, begin
Whenever I try to export my plotscript, it just says "declaration script2 is not permitted inside a script. Perhaps script1 has an extra begin or ("

Every ( or begin (they're just two different ways of writing the same thing) needs a matching ) or end to show where the thing started by (/begin ends. So you need an 'end' to end the 'then' block, and a second one to end the 'script':

Code: Select all

plotscript, script1, begin
  if (check tag (tag: tag1)==on) then, begin
    set tag (tag: tag2, off)
    set tag (tag: tag3, on)
  end
end
Hint: indentation is very very helpful for keeping track of where you need to put the 'end's as your script gets longer. Not using indentation is a clinical indicator for madness.

Hmmmm...

What's the plotscripting command (or whatever it's called) for adding/removing heroes in/to the party?
Thanks in advance. :???:

The commands you want are "add hero" and "delete hero"
