[VX Ace] Trouble with Dekita Element Control

[Andrios]

Hi people, i'm a newbie without any script knowledge, i tired to insert some scripts in my project just to try out the results, but i get an error on line 408 of the Element Control by Dekita

It says:

            Script '$D13x Element Control' line408: NoMethodError Occurred.

            undefined method []' for nil:NilClass

           That's the script line:

              return Ele_Fixx::Element[element_id][:def_ele][1]

If you need the complete script you can go there:

Thanks in advance,

Did you save after inserting the scripts and then begin a New Game?  A lot of scripts will throw an error if you try to use them with an already existing save file.

Well i threw the script in the script list, saved, then used it in the "Test Game" on an already created map, but the game is far from being finished.

Afraid that is not enough. You *must* start a new game once you add that script, as it is looking for variables that do not exist in your save game. In fact, it is always a good idea to start a new game every time you add a script.

If you still run into that error after selecting the new game option, let us know.

Ok, I tried but it still happens, I've even insert only Dekita's scripts and not all the others that i have, just to see if it was caused by some incompatibility problems, and i still run into that exact same error :/

Thanks for the replies by the way

Okay, just to be 100% sure before making suggestions:

You do select 'New Game' and not 'Continue' from your title screen?

 

[Andrios]

Yes

What have you done about configuration of the script?

Reading through the posts there is a bug where Dekita forgot to account for normal attack in setting up the initial array, which results in that error you see. I think there is a fix, but I don't have it right now, and it is probably best to ask Dekita for it.

Ok thanks, and yes, is happening for the normal attack, even tho i didn't try using a skill yet, i'll ask Dekita then, bye and thanks to all
