Ok, what's happening is this: I put in the following:

define script (1,Yo Mama,none)

Then, it'll say "Expected number but found 'none'"
I'm getting really mad, because, I've done this before and it was ok.

"none" is actually what we call a 'global constant'. It's defined in a file called plotscr.hsd. The only thing I could think of why this isn't working is that you didn't include plotscr.hsd at the top of your code, so the compiler looks at "none" and says "what? What's 'none'?" plotscr.hsd tells the compiler that it equals 0.

If that doesn't solve your problem, post the script.

that is the problem, he didn't include plotscr.hsd
or he could've replaced none with 0 (number zero), but he'll run into other problems later on in the script, if he continues to not include plotsrc.hsd

It should look like this

include plotscr.hsd

define script (1,yo moma,none)

script, yo moma,begin

Or something along them lines. Its been a while

ok, it's still happening......this is my script:

include plotscr.hsd
include 1337.hsi

define script (1,yo mama,none)

script,yo mama,begin
suspend player
show text box(1)
wait for text box
walk hero (me,east,5)
wait for hero (me)
walk hero (me,west,5)
wait for hero (me)
resume player
end

I honestly don't see the prob.......

throw a comma in there:

include, plotscr.hsd

If that doesn't work...I guess make sure you're saving it before you compile, or that there's nothing different about your plotscr.hsd file than the norm, even though I have no idea why that would happen.

Maybe plotscript.hsd is missing or corrupted

It could be that the plotscr.hsd is missing (as mentioned above).
Also have you exported the script from custom.exe to include the other 1337 thingy you have.

It shouldn't really make a difference but it might be something stupid like that.

No, actually, I think Squall hit the nail on the head. If you don't have commas after "include", then it craps the whole thing up.

The problem is continuing to persist. I don't get it, I've been trying to figure it out for a while. I'm almost ready to give uip plotscripting!

here's the problem...

"1337.hsi"

...
...
...Don't use JUST numbers for a file name when including it.

AND WHY THE FUCK AM I SEEING THIS AS BEING ANOTHER NEWBIE L33T GAME!?!?
