Having "__NEWSCRIPTSTART_" anywhere in code messes up compiler line numbering

[fernewelten]

1. Create a new game with game defaults
2. Replace the whole contents of file room1.asc with the following code:

Code: Adventure Game Studio

1. // How to mess up the compiler line numbering
2. function f()
3. {
4.     // There once was a man of Japan,
5.     // whose limericks never would scan.
6.     // When asked why this was,
7.     // he said: "It's because
8.     // I always cram as many words into my last lines as I possibly can!"
9. String s = "__NEWSCRIPTSTART_";
10. }
11. Oops!
12.  

3. Hit f5
4. Note in the "Output" window that the coding error "Oops" is flagged for line 2, not line 11 where it really is.
