    Re: it wont let me compile scripts.

    that means somethings wrong with the script.

    did you write it? if not what script is it? maybe ill find whats wrong and fix it so it can work.

    also, is it a ZScript type of script or ZASM?

    it makes a difference in compiling.

    the compiler usually tells you whats wrong with it, so i use that as a correction tool. what does it say when you try to compile it? is that the only message you get?

    ...also i think this goes in script general discussion/help...

    someone should make a sticky about this. if the mods let me post it here (so n00bs can find it easier and stop making threads like this lol) ill volunteer for it.

    Re: it wont let me compile scripts.

    ok... do you know the difference between ZScript and ZASM?

    ZASM is written in all caps.

    ZScript isnt.

    have you looked at it? after you do tell me which one it is and ill tell you where to go from there.

    Re: it wont let me compile scripts.

    ok heres how to set this script up then.

    save the file with an extension of .z
    example,

    right:
    Code:
    signpost.z
    wrong:
    Code:
    signpost.z.txt
    anything with .txt or anything like that will be wrong.

    so next,

    go to the editor and follow this CAREFULLY!! this means dont talk to strangers and NO bathroom breaks

    Tools>Scripts>Compile Zscript
    now click "import" and select your file.
    then click "compile"
    if the script is ok and has no errors, you will see a message (i dont know exactly what it says though)
    after the message a box will pop up. here you add your script to the list.

    there are 3 tabs at the top. FFC Global and Item. under one of those 3 is your signpost script. i think a signpost would be in the FFC tab

    find it, highlight it and click the "<<" button

    there you go!

    now using the script might be a little harder to explain.

    EDIT:lol i like being helpful XD

    Re: it wont let me compile scripts.

    What were the errors?

    Do you have the line "import std.zh" in the .z file?

    Re: it wont let me compile scripts.

    Look in line 9. You should see something like this:

    Code:
    Screen->Message();

    if Message is spelled with a lowercase "M" it's a typo and just change it.

    If that doesn't work can you post the script?
