Title: Parse error?
Post by: Icey on Sat 27/08/2011 01:53:33
I have this line in one of my scripts

Code Select
explabel.Text String.Format("EXP: %d/%d", PlayerEXP, BaseEXP);

When I try to run the game I get any error message. I think it has to do something with the last two variables.

As always, please let us know WHAT kind of error you are getting? Is it really when running the game or when trying to compile?

In that line there is an '=' missing but I remember you actually being too lazy to copy (!) in the correct code from your script before so I guess that might not be the problem.

Ohh that's right. I forgot about the (=) sign.

I can' comment on that part about me being lazy cause that was like a minute ago(a while ago)

Therefore I will just leave it that and say thanks.

A parse error is almost always a user error*. Just looking at that line it should have been obvious what the problem was..if you've ever scripted anything in AGS before that is.

If I sound rude here it's only because you should have been able to figure it out yourself, and so I figured the sarcasm in my post was warranted. :P

*Very, very, very, very, very, very rarely it can be related to an editor bug.

It didn't sound rude. I actually feel kinda stupid as there was two lines below it that had the = sign in it. I got caught up in the variables so I thought that was the problem. 

Code Select

explabel.Text  String.Format("EXP: %d/%d", PlayerEXP, BaseEXP);
   Label3.Text = String.Format("HP:%d", playerHP);//Health
   Label6.Text = String.Format("MP:%d", playerMP);//Magic
