Quest won't load and getting a huge error - Urkel - 02-04-2012

I'm currently working on my first Amnesia Custom Story and just began scripting quests for it.
I've added 3 quests to my first map, and one of them won't load. It's supposed to trigger when entering an area but it simply wont.

I'm also getting a huge error when entering my second map (noob.map): http://i44.tinypic.com/fp358w.jpg

My map file: http://www.mediafire.com/?zyclkble4db37m0

hpl.log said:

More help appriciated! :>

RE: Quest won't load and getting a huge error - Elven - 02-04-2012

I am not sure if it is cause, but:

QQ2 -> remove that 2. I think that if you use numbers in function it might cause errors. Try to use like: QQTwo instead, or something like that. I am not sure, but give it a try Smile

/// Ignore above, it is only if function starts with number Tongue

Anyway, when you use collide callback, then later in function you need to use:

void FunctionName(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

Yes this fixed the second quest!
But the gigantic error still remains when starting the second map Noob.map Sad

When I enter noob.map, I now get the error

row 178 is:



void Quest_Noob_2(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

any ideas?
