Please help me debug

[Dahak]

I have a script:

 

Code:

// bandersnatch.txt - Controls the invisibility of a bandersnatch creature.// Memory Cells - //   0 - Creature typebeginterrainscript; variables;	short i = 6;body;beginstate INIT_STATE;	set_script_mode(3);break;beginstate START_STATE;	i = 6;	while (i <= 199) {		print_str_color("Looping",2);		if ( creature_type(i) = get_memory_cell(0) ) {			print_str_color("Found BS",2);			if (get_health(i) < get_max_health(i)) {				print_str_color("Changing",2);				set_special_ability(i, 0);				print_str_color("Changed",2);			}		}		i = i + 1; 	}break;

 

The second line print_str_color("Found BS",2); is giving me the following message: "Unmatched left parenthesis in line 22."

 

I've tried to figure it, but I'm stuck.

if ( creature_type(i) = get_memory_cell(0) ) {

 

There's your problem. Should be a double-equals (==), not a single (=). Remember, double-equals checks if something is equal, single-equals sets it to be equal.

Now I get "Function Call error (unary) on line 21"

 

Edit: As gar as I can tell the problem is that I have the "i" variable. If I replace "i" with a hard number, the script is correct.

There are only 119 creature slots available in the game. So that top loop shouldn't run all the way to 199. (unary) usually shows up when an invalid value has been plugged into a call, and if you're trying to get the health of creature 163, I can very well see it spitting that out.

Perfect!

 

Thanks to the both of you.

 

I would have sworn I had typed in 119, but that was my mistake.
