The array 't' is not being populated, and the loops for 'i' and 'j' are not running at all. What could be the problem?

I don't want to seem annoying, but there's another problem with the script:

function Diff_setup()
slozhnost = GetDifficulty();
if slozhnost == DIFFICULTY_EASY  then
print("easy");
startThread(sloz_easy);
elseif slozhnost == DIFFICULTY_NORMAL then
print("norm");
startThread(sloz_norm);
elseif slozhnost == DIFFICULTY_HARD then
print("hard");
startThread(sloz_hard);
elseif slozhnost == DIFFICULTY_HEROIC then
print("hero");
startThread(sloz_hero);
end;
end;

function sloz_easy()
if (GetDate( DAY ) == 31) then
SetRegionBlocked("blok", nil, 4);
end;
end;

function sloz_norm()
if (GetDate( DAY ) == 28) then
SetRegionBlocked("blok", nil, 4);
end;
end;

function sloz_hard()
if (GetDate( DAY ) == 14) then
SetRegionBlocked("blok", nil, 4);
end;
end;

function sloz_hero()
if (GetDate( DAY ) == 12) then
SetRegionBlocked("blok", nil, 4);
end;
end;

startThread(Diff_setup);

The console throws an error.

By the way, the code probably doesn't work the way you expect it to.

Yeah, that's right. The code runs once on the first day, returns false for the date checks, and then ends. Unless there's something else in there.

Hello, dear mapmakers. Can you provide a script that removes a creature from the map?

RemoveObject("scripted monster name");

RedHeavenHero, could you please provide some insight? If I rewrite the Errormessage function like this:
errmsg = _ERRORMESSAGE
function _ERRORMESSAGE(msg)
errmsg(msg)
end

And then call MessageBox('') in the console, instead of the usual error "Empty message text!", the game crashes. A long time ago, you helped Dorman hide the error "attempt to call a nil value"; I want to catch the error of a missing text file using a similar method, i.e., determine if it exists. I would be grateful for your help.
