Script won't change game!

  Hey all!
   I wrote some script yesterday, which worked fine
   I altered that script today, adding new lines and replacing old ones, but the game still ran as if it was using that old script, and not the new one! I tried everything, even editing the entire section out, but the game just plodded along as if it were using yesterdays script!
   Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks

Perhaps you didn't compile it?

Or the new lines don't get to be executed...
Worked on Strangeland, Primordia, Hob's Barrow, The Cat Lady, Mage's Initiation, Until I Have You, Downfall, Hunie Pop, and every game in the Wadjet Eye Games catalogue (porting)

Without getting a look at the script and what you've changed, this is going to be one hell of a difficult puzzle.

Nothing happens.

You're carrying:
  cluelessness
  your beloved worn teddy-bear
  a huge iron key

> throw teddy-bear at hole

Your attempts at violence will lead you nowhere.

> quit
Do you really want to quit (yes/no)? >

Khris, as I look at it, his post wasn't bewildering and lacking information at all.  Your post was funny, nonetheless. :)

I've had this glitch happen before.  You'll need to go to Build --> Rebuild All Files.  For some reason it doesn't compile correctly and uses the older game files.

Ah ok, sorry then. This has never happened to me so I assumed it was simply a scripting error.

  Thanks! That worked a treat!
 
  Also: great post Khris! I think the answer was something along the lines of:

> combine teady-bear with huge iron key

You open the door!
