Development Forum Two Syntax Errors?    Tea Queen Laura        4/10/2013 Would someone be able to help me work out what the two syntax errors are in my piece of code so far, please? I'm working on a new agent, for DS, and the CAOS Tool throws a tantrum every time I try to inject the install script (because I want to test things as I go... at least, that was the plan): *install: new: simp 2 23 14851 "wumpadis" 1 0 500 bhvr 1 attr 199 elas 10 aero 5 accg 7 perm 100 fric 50 *inject into inventory: enum 1 2 23 spas targ va00 doif ov00 = 0 and clac = 0 mesg writ targ 0 endi next *activation: scrp 2 23 14851 1 *'jump': velo -2 rand -1 1 *random dispensing: doif rand 1 3 eq 1 *vend fruit: setv va00 posl setv va01 posy new: simp 2 8 14851 "wumpadis" 3 1 501 bhvr 48 attr 195 elas 10 aero 5 accg 7 perm 100 fric 50 *remove: rscr enum 2 23 14851 kill targ next scrx 2 23 14851 12 endi For some reason 'rscr' always shows up in red? I bet the answer is really obvious to all you experienced lot out there; I apologise for being such a novice, but this agent will be awesome! I promise. Thank you for any help in advance!   Peppery One Papriko   4/10/2013 You started the activation script scrp 2 23 14851 1 but between the lines fric 50 and *remove: you forgot to finish the script with an endm line. Lets play plants! Photosynthesis... Photosynthesis... Photosynthesis...   Prodigal Sock Ghosthande     4/10/2013 Yes, you need an "ENDI" after the fruit injection bit, to end your "DOIF", and an "ENDM" to close the script itself.   Tea Queen Laura     4/10/2013 Thank you, guys; finally got to the bottom of it and posted a teaser screenshot here!   Malkin Manager     4/10/2013  1 Don't forget to add an 'I have played with a machine' stimulus (stimulus #90) to the activate script - that will make norns enjoy pushing it more. Just slip stim writ from 90 1 in the activation script, before the 'jump'. My TCR Norns   Prodigal Sock Ghosthande     4/10/2013 That's true, actually... I've heard that non-CFE Norns also tend to push something a million times if they don't get a stimulus from it, so adding one may help them not act so dumb.   Malkin Manager     4/10/2013 Or worse, they stop experimenting with other dispensers if they learn early in life that pushing dispensers doesn't feel like anything. My TCR Norns   Tea Queen Laura     4/11/2013  1 Thanks for the tip, Malkin.   Malkin Manager     4/11/2013  1 You're welcome! I suggested that it should be before the jump to 'get it out of the way' and so that it always stimulates the creatures, no matter if the vendor vends or not. My TCR Norns   Tea Queen Laura     4/11/2013 Definitely sounds useful!
