''What does this mean, and how can I get rid of it?'' | |||
That error most usually means you've placed a command outside a function - as such, AGS doesn't know when to run it, and so it's 'unexpected'. In general, the only code allowed outside of a function declaration (e.g. at the very top of a Room script) are variable declarations, e.g.: | |||
//Room script file | |||
int DoneStuff; | |||
String MyString; | |||
// etc | |||
All other commands must be inside a function - be it one you've created yourself, or a room' Interaction function ('Player enters room before fadein', 'Player leaves room', etc).
