i thought in lua, that an "else if" was written without a space as in "elseif".
This could be the source of the problem

[Shando]

oops c++ strikes again!!!

[SolarPortal]

haha lol It gets us with the "then" & "end", we keep putting braces lol

[StarFire]

Yes we all get nailed by that one lol

sorry for the late response to this problem Shando. Lets get on it
Q> Is your script still proving to be a problem?

If you would like, i can take a look for you and try to locate the error.

Have you tried using a lua error checker from online. There are a few. Maybe this can help.

Hi SP,

No worries

OK, so after several hours of tearing out what little hair I have, it was a rogue ":" where a ";" should have been

All appears to be working now

Is there any chance of implementing a simple code checker in the "Script Editor" to easily eliminate these types of error??

great & well done that you have sorted it It can be a right pain in the backside when your code goes wrong and you cannot see the simple error. They are always the worst lol

Compile Error Checker:
We have already had another user ask for a compile error checker as they were stuck for days with the same syntax errors i believe. It is needed to make the coding easier and faster. It is already planned in, but i will move its priority up a bit.
I may go looking for an MIT license lua compiler to save time for now.

Just been looking into in between compiles.

In the Lua Source folder when built, there is an .exe called "Luac.exe" which is the lua compiler for building apps in lua. It also has a built in parser on the command line using [-p]. I might be able to make use of this for syntax checking at least. Checking whether there are arguments passed into functions incorrectly will take time as all of skyline functions are independent to our lua libraries and an ordinary checker would fail them.

There's also ZeroBrane Studio which is MIT licence (but they do request a donation):



This looks like it can be changed relatively(?) easily to add your own functions:

Hyper-realistic sex doll heads are incredibly deceptive in front of the camera. Professional photographers have discovered that under certain lighting conditions, are virtually indistinguishable from real people, a quality widely exploited in film special effects and art. Compared to torsos, the visual authenticity of the face contributes even more to the overall sense of realism—audiences may accept a simplified body but are particularly sensitive to facial unreality. This visual quality makes top-quality a photographer's secret weapon, allowing them to create striking visual images while avoiding scheduling issues for actors.
