Ags-Serious Error

[R4L]

FollowCharacterEx(COSMO,HOUSE,10,97);
Wait(10);
ChangeCharacterView(COSMO,4);
Wait(10);
AnimateCharacter(COSMO,0,5,0);
Wait(10);
ChangeCharacterView(HOUSE,6);
Wait(10);
ChangeCharacterView(COSMO,1);
Wait(5);  
FollowCharacter(0,1-);

This is my script for if I want my character to go up to the other character( who is actually a house) and use the key on him to open him. After I put the Wait(5); and FollowCharacter(0,1-_; I went to save it and this came up

Exception 0xC0000005 at EIP=0x00480A9D,AGSE 2.56.413

What the hell is that error? When I take out the Wait(5); and FollowCharacter(0,1-);, It has no problem, but the character won't walk ALL the way to the character.

Anyway I can fix this, or anyone have a better script? Please contact me at Xpac3491@aol.com or on my aim name Rap4Life42o, or just post it here. Any help will be appreciated greatly!

Not sure if this is what's causing the error but it should be FollowCharacter(0,-1); I think.

Why are you using FollowCharacter() to make him walk to the house, instead of MoveCharacterBlocking()?  Follow character is for making characters follow other characters...

[R4L]

Well cause my character HOUSE is at 222,236. So I tried MoveCharacterBlocking and my main character walked like, not even a quarter of 222,236. So anyway I can do anything?

[scotch]

It may be that your character is colliding with the house when you try to walk there, check the 'Can be walked through' option on the house character.

Nevermind, that MoveCharacterBlocking is working all of a sudden. Thanks for the suggestions!

FollowCharacter(0,1-);

It's still strange. I just checked it and yes AGS quits with an error message when tries to parse it. CJ?

Hmm so it does. Well spotted, I'll get the compiler fixed - but yes, the cause of the problem is your script error - it should be

FollowCharacter(0,-1);

not

FollowCharacter(0,1-);

[R4L]

Allrighty then. Thanks a bunch!
