That line is fine, its likely something either above or below that line thats causing the error.

Also, i don't think "trigger_wait" is an actual function. Do this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

trigger waittill("NOTIFY HERE");

trigger_wait is a function, at least according to ugx-mod wiki. However like deadra said bad syntax errors usually are above or below the specified lines printed to the console. So possibly you have an extra { / } or [ / ] or ( / ) or you are missing a semicolon.

Can you post a few lines above and a few lines below the actual line?

Is

Is that above or below it?

also, waittill isn't used to get an entity.

That would give an uninitialized variable error, not a bad syntax.

1) Is the

Code Snippet

Plaintext

plat[i]

in a for statement? If so then that is fine.
2) I don't believe level2.origin can be used, at least I haven't seen it used. For safety just do level.origin or self.origin. Also make sure level.origin is defined somewhere.

Here is my whole script i wrote by myselfs

Code Snippet

Plaintext

#include maps\_utility; 
#include common_scripts\utility;
#include maps\_zombiemode_utility;

main()
{
time = 30;
	level.floor = 0;
	intrig1 getEnt( intrig1, targetname );
	outtrig1 getEnt( outtrig1, targetname );
	intrig2 getEnt( intri2, targetname );
	outtrig2 getEnt( outtrig2, targetname );
	plat geEnt (plat, targetname);
	level1 getEnt ( level1, targetname);
	level2 getEnt ( level2, targetname
 
 
	//intrig1 
 
	trigger waittill( "intrig1", "targetname" );
 
			plat[i] moveto (level2.origin, time);
					level.floor = 1;
 
 
	//intrig2 
 
	trigger waittill( "intrig2", "targetname" );
 
			plat[i] moveto (level1.origin, time);
					level.floor = 0;
 
 
 
	//outtrig1 
 
	trigger waittill( "outtrig1", "targetname" );
 
			plat[i] moveto (level1.origin, time);
					level.floor = 0;
 
 
	//outtrig2 
 
	trigger waittill( "outtrig2", "targetname" );
 
			plat[i] moveto (level2.origin, time);
					level.floor = 1;
 
 
 
 
	if( level.floor == 1 )
		{
			intrig1 enable_trigger();
			intrig2 disable_trigger();
			outtrig2 enable_trigger();
			outtrig1 disable_trigger();
 
		}
 
	if( level.floor == 2 )
		{
			intrig2 enable_trigger();
			intrig1 disable_trigger();
			outtrig1 enable_trigger();
			outtrig2 disable_trigger();
 
		}
 
}

I am trying to make a elevator

1 = outtrig2
2 = outtrig1
3 = intrig3
4 = intrig4
5 = plat
6 = level2
7 = level1
red = trigger
black platform is script_brushmodel
green = script_origin
outtrigs are the buttons outside the elevator and intrigs are buttons inside.

** the trigger does not move with the plat **

Is it on the same line? Or a different one.
also on the waittill it should be

Code Snippet

Plaintext

trigger waittill ("trigger");

and shouldnt the variable be the exact same as the actual line like in this code

Code Snippet

Plaintext

intrig1 waittill ("trigger");

and

Code Snippet

Plaintext

intrig2 waittill ("trigger");

etc

try changing it to what I said, and give the variable intrig1 instead of trigger
