thanks, strazer, but said: Expected {

Nothing. The error it follows there. Some idea?

This:

The problem was:
In: 'Global script'

Error: Function declaration has wrong number of argument of prototype.

Hi, i've a problem with a DOTT's template (and more template with scumm interface). If I open a template with ags 2.71 or 2.7, the ags say: ERROR:

function GoToCharacterEx(int charidwhogoes, int charidtogo, int direction, int xoffset, int yoffset, int NPCfacesplayer, int blocking){
  //Goes to a character staying at the side defined by 'direction': 1 up, 2 right, 3 down, 4 left
  //and it stays at xoffset or yofsset from the character. NPCfacesplayer self-explained.
  // blocking: 0=non-blocking; 1=blocking; 2=semi-blocking.
  // returns 1 if player arrived.
  int playerchar,charidx,charidy,playerx,playery;
  if (charidwhogoes!=GetPlayerCharacter() && blocking==2) blocking=0;//npcs cant perform semi-blocking actions
  playerchar=charidwhogoes;
  charidx=character[charidtogo].x;
  charidy=character[charidtogo].y;
  playerx=character[playerchar].x;
  playery=character[playerchar].y;

The error is in first line, but this template works very good with AGS 2.62, but if i open with ags 2.7 o 2.71 the template doesn't work.

     Thanks.

Ok, thanks.

P.D Sorry about my english, i'm spanish and i don't speak english very well.

NOTE: Sorry by my bad english, i'm spanish and i'm fourteen years old.

     I need a template with a "Verb Coin" and menu Savegame/loadgame, i downloaded the template "The curse of Monkey Island" and the template of Shimblebank, a template named: Verb Coin, it has not a menu save/load game, i don't know make a verb coin, because i don't know about scripts of GUIs. I exported the GUI of verb coin, and imported in a template with savegame, but the ags don't imported the scripts of verb coin. I need a template.
