I keep getting this error when in game edit mode.



error running function: scriptbank\global.lua:84: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)



I suspect it has to do with using animated trees from the vegpack.



EDIT: I should also add that the crash occurs when loading test game and the status is 'INITIALIZING PHYSICS'.

It means it's missing a numeric number. So 0, 1, etc.

Hi

this means you are getting an error in your global.lua script on line 84, which is this this line:



Quote: "g_Entity[e]['x'] = x;"




the entire function you are trying to call is this one:



Quote: "function UpdateEntityRT(e,object,x,y,z,col,key,zon,plrvis,hea,frm,tmr)

g_Entity[e]['x'] = x;

g_Entity[e]['y'] = y;

g_Entity[e]['z'] = z;

g_Entity[e]['obj'] = object;

g_Entity[e]['collected'] = col;

g_Entity[e]['haskey'] = key;

g_Entity[e]['plrinzone'] = zon;

g_Entity[e]['plrvisible'] = plrvis;

g_Entity[e]['health'] = hea;

g_Entity[e]['frame'] = frm;

g_Entity[e]['timer'] = tmr;

end"




so you could either re-install FPSC-Reloaded, or you can check the file for any errors within the function yourself. Locate the 'ScriptBank' folder in 'C:\Program Files\The Game Creators\FPS Creator Reloaded\Files\ ' and then rightclick on the file and then move down to 'OPENWITH' and select 'NotePad'. If there is an error with your function then make your changes, but make sure you 'SAVE!!!' the file before you close the program. I'm 99% sure it will ask you to save any changes before the program closes anyway.
