Posts from Scripts

end statements should still be placed after else.
Here is a script from another map:

function am()
	local old = 8
	while 1 do
		local count = 0
		for i=36,43 do
			count = count + (HasArtefact("Muscip", i) or 0)
		end
		if count ~= old then
			if old == 8 then
				SetObjectiveState("obj", OBJECTIVE_ACTIVE);
				sleep(5);
			end
			if count == 8 then
				SetObjectiveState("obj", OBJECTIVE_COMPLETED);
			else
				SetObjectiveProgress('obj', count);
			end;
			old = count
		end;
		sleep(5);
	end;
end;

And it works perfectly.

extra end before else

ends after else

Maybe the problem is in this? Everything is correct in this code.

Okay, I figured it out myself. I just mixed up BEFORE with AFTER.

I removed those endings; let's see now...

Now he writes completely nonsensical things: The called function: function eh1F(heroname) if eh1p == 0 then eh1p = 1 AddHeroCreatures(heroname,91,fac); AddHeroCreatures(heroname,85,eac); AddHeroCreatures(heroname,86,eac); AddHeroCreatures(heroname,87,eac); AddHeroCreatures(heroname,88,eac); ShowFlyingSign(w.."ehe.txt"); sleep(5); else ShowFlyingSign(w.."ehp.txt"); end; end;

it (the error/console) says that there is a reference to an object in the script, but the name is "", i.e., it has no name. And, of course, it doesn't exist on the map...

There are no objects with an empty name in the specifically invoked function.

And why did you conclude that the error refers specifically to this function? The console doesn't seem to say anything about it...

Because this message appeared not at the beginning, but during the function call. And I also checked the script, and there were no empty fields anywhere.

Ah, I see. It (the function) didn't recognize heroname as a hero. The function needs to be activated by a hero. For example, attach a touch/region trigger to it. Otherwise, it won't know which hero to give the army to...

A trigger exists.

Can I view it (script expression for a trigger that calls a function)?

Trigger(OBJECT_TOUCH_TRIGGER,"eh1","eh1F");

are the variables `eac` and `fac` greater than or equal to 0? (although, this is not really important)

Then I don't know what the problem is. Did the hero interact with this object? Then it's `heroname`. And then you can work with it...

So, does the object (to which the trigger is attached) have a name?

(Or did I already ask?)

1) fac = random(4,4);
eac = random(20,30);
2) It's obvious from the error.

As you can see, this function (+trigger) has two objects. One is a hero. The second is an object that, when touched by the hero, starts the function.
Although, yes, since the function is called, the object must exist. The question is resolved.

I don't even know how to help. I checked it in the script editor - the syntax is correct.

Once again (for clarification). You started the map from the beginning. You approached the object with the hero. You clicked. The function failed. Is that correct? I just don't know how an error could occur in such a simple function.
