[help please] Scripting errors

[Mistress_kurenai]

I'm still new to the RPG maker VX Ace and I'm having a lot of trouble with scripting (especially since I've never done it before) and I keep get the error:

Script 'game_interpreter' line 1411: SyntaxError occurred.

unexpected keyword_in, expecting $end

What do I do to fix this? Thank you for reading and attempting to help me, I appreciate the time spent.

Please link us to the script that is causing the problem and let us know what other scripts you're using. 

Or did you script it yourself?

Based on the interpreter error. It has something to do with the script call that you make. The statement that you declared requires closing statement 'end', and you didn't add it.

if @asd  "do something"end #closing statementdef asd; "do something" end(0...5).each do |i| p i end

These are the links to the scripts, thank you both very very much

Sorry, I don't know much about scripting other than what I've learned from using/getting my own to work. Did you just add this script and then get the error?

May we see the 'event' page?

"scripting" in RM is basically a form of programming, and the Quest journal from Modern Algebra is one of the few scripts where you have to know something about scripting in order to be able to use this.


Especially you need to change the script you're using in order to create the quests, and for that reason it's useless to link us to the original script, we need to know how you changed that script to create your own quests.


You cannot simply place your own quest into events or into script commands in events, they have to go into the script editor, into the section of the quest journal where they are supposed to be.


So please copy your modified script from the script editor and paste it here (with code- and spoiler-tags to keep it readable, or attach it as a txt-file), so that we can tell you where you wrote the wrong commands

I've moved this thread to RGSSx Script Support. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you.


I don't have Ace in front of me now, but line 1411 of Game_Interpreter sounds familiar. Isn't it the Call Script command? If it is, it means you've got an event somewhere that does a Script call, and it's not right.

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

yeah, 1411 is eval(script)...


Please specify when the error happens, if it happens when you trigger an event, please show us the event pages

sorry guys, my computer was hacked and All my memory on it was wiped, I have nothing, I was just now able to download everything. 

And I apologize for not putting this in the correct thread, I will pay more attention next time.

Where should I look to learn how to script thing better?

Where should I look to learn how to script thing better?

You don't need to write your own scripts to make a game, and from your original post I think you should either start to learn how to use existing scripts (which is not the same as scripting/writing scripts yourself) or to do things by eventing before trying to write scripts.
If you still have the data from the original problem, best way would be to start looking for that error by answering the questions we posted above.
