The AGS tutorial is pretty good, but for a more in-depth series on AGS use I would highly recommend this:

I believe the files needed to work-along with this series might be missing or hard to track down, but you don't really need them: Either just watch the vids and absorb the info, or create your own simple backgrounds/sprites to test the methodology step-by-step if you prefer the hands-on approach...

I started learning AGS with this series as did many others here and there isn't much that it doesn't cover.

I'll check it out! Thanks

Highly recommended!

You're using the 9verb template to follow the tutorial, which is a bad idea. You should start a "Default Game".

Anyway, the first room's door object (oDoor) is referenced in the room script on line 7 and 55, and since you deleted the door, you should remove these lines, too, or the room won't compile.

Apparently the problem was that one of the hotspots had the function "oDoor" assigned to it, so I deleted the line and the function and now it's fixed. Should I restart on a default game or is there any real problem y could encounter by continuing with the 9verb template?

The error is: room1.asc(7): Error (line 7): undefined symbol 'oDoor'

Today I started learning how to use ags and followed the tutorial without to much difficulty until I got to the objects part. I had previously had some trouble with the hotspots because for some reason the phrase "this door looks pretty solid" always showed up just after the description of one of the hotspots I had created. After unsuccessfully checking the script for any sign of this phrase, I gave up on fixing it and went on. Later, wile learning how to use objects, I found out there was an object that I hadn't created in the room. Since it was a door, I assumed it was what was causing that phrase to show up in a completely random place. I tried to deleted the door but after doing that and launching the game I get this error:  room1.asc(7): Error (line 7): undefined symbol 'oDoor'
I tried relaunching ags and deleting it again but I ran into the same problem every time I tried to save. I haven't found a solution for this anywhere. Please help.
