Custom story error that I can't solve!? - Radical Batz - 01-30-2014

Every time I load my customs story it gets me this error message

FATAL ERROR: Could not load script file 'custom_stories/Lifeless_The Abandon/maps/Lifeless_The Abandon.hps'!
main (57, 1) : ERR : Unexpected token '{'

Now I know that when it says Unexpected token '{' means that i am missing that character somewhere in my code. Now here is my code script

Code:
void OnStart()
{
wakeUp();
}

void wakeUp() {
FadeOut(0); // Instantly fades the screen out. (Good for starting the game)
FadeIn(10); // Amount of seconds the fade in takes
FadeImageTrailTo(2, 2);
FadeSepiaColorTo(0, 2);
SetPlayerActive(false);
FadePlayerRollTo(50, 220, 220); // "Tilts" the players head
FadeRadialBlurTo(0.5, 2);
SetPlayerCrouching(true); // Simulates being on the ground
PlayMusic("18_amb.ogg", true, 1, 4, 1, true);
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "AreaCollide", "EventCollide", true, 1);
AddTimer("trig1", 11.0f, "beginStory"); // Change '11.0f' to however long you want the 'unconciousness' to last
}

void beginStory(string &in asTimer) {
ChangePlayerStateToNormal();
SetPlayerActive(true);
FadePlayerRollTo(0, 33, 33); // Change all settings to defaults
FadeRadialBlurTo(0.0, 1);
FadeSepiaColorTo(0, 4);
SetPlayerCrouching(false);
FadeImageTrailTo(0,1);
SetPlayerLampOil(45);
GiveSanityDamage(80, false);
GivePlayerDamage(30 , "false" , false, false);
SetPlayerMoveSpeedMul(0.58f);
SetPlayerRunSpeedMul(0);
//SetPlayerLookSpeedMul(0.5);
AddUseItemCallback("", "HollowNeedle", "CellDoor", "UseHollowNeedleOnDoor", true);
}

void UseHollowNeedleOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("CellDoor", false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door.ogg", asEntity, 0, false);
GiveSanityBoostSmall();
RemoveItem(asItem);
}

void EventCollide(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("CellGuardGrunt", true);
AddEnemyPatrolNode("CellGuardGrunt", "Node_1",0.001f, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("CellGuardGrunt", "Node_4",0.001f, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("CellGuardGrunt", "Node_6",0.001f, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("CellGuardGrunt", "Node_10",0.001f, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("CellGuardGrunt", "Node_15",0.001f, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("CellGuardGrunt", "Node_18",0.001f, "");
}


{

    void AddEntityCollideCallback("Handle", "AreaConnect", "AttachLever", true, 1);
}

void AttachLever(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
    SetEntityActive("Lever", true);

    SetEntityActive(asParent, false);
    SetEntityActive("Mount", false);

}

void UnlockDoor(string &in asEntity, int LeverState)
{
    if(LeverState == 1) {
        SetSwingDoorLocked("Open", false, true);
        GiveSanityBoostSmall();
        PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door.ogg", "Open", 0, false);
        SetLeverStckState(asEntity, LeverState, bool abEffects);
    }
}


Now I've looked everywhere and I don't understand why i have that missing character because my code looks fine, help pls, tell me what I should do

RE: Custom story error that I can't solve!? - daortir - 01-30-2014

{

void AddEntityCollideCallback("Handle", "AreaConnect", "AttachLever", true, 1);
}

Is the problem ^^. It shouldn't be written between " { " and shouldn't have a void before. Also it'd fit better in void OnStart I think ^^.

RE: Custom story error that I can't solve!? - DnALANGE - 01-31-2014

As Daortir said earlyer ;
Just to make it a little easyer, here is how it should look like :
Quote:void AddEntityCollideCallback("Handle", "AreaConnect", "AttachLever", true, 1);
{
}
---
BUT you might use it here :
Quote:void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Handle", "AreaConnect", "AttachLever", true, 1);
}

This is a good read if you wanna learn how to code properly.

Good read.

RE: Custom story error that I can't solve!? - DnALANGE - 01-31-2014

{
wakeUp();
}

There is no function there?
void ??? HERE must be a function like :
Quote:void monsterwalky(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity) // or whatever you want.
{
wakeUp();
}

Remove the
Quote:{
wakeUp();
}
and just place : wakeUp(); in OnStart()

RE: Custom story error that I can't solve!? - Radical Batz - 01-31-2014

like this?

Code:
void OnStart()

{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Handle", "AreaConnect", "AttachLever", true, 1);
}

wakeUp();

{

thank you , but it gets this error now

Whenever you get errors, could you post your whole script with that error? It's hard to tell unless we know exactly where you are at..?
