Code:
plotscript, nighttime, begin
  if(check tag(3)) then(
    reset palette
    tweak palette (-25,-25,-10)
    update palette
  )
end


causes this in in g_debug.txt

WANTIMMEDIATE BUG
nighttime terminated, setting wantimmediate on startup
wantimmediate ended on nowscript = -1


I haven't noticed any problems with it, but BUG in all caps just can't be good. What's wrong with the script? (It works as I'd like it when testing)[/code]

Nothing is wrong with your script. The bug that's mentioned is an engine bug.

That big scary message in g_debug.txt is mostly just for the developers. Maybe it should be removed, because it's scaring everyone. The problem is that there is/was a bug with the way scripts are triggered that could cause wait's to be skipped, or cause error messages. It was fixed, but then discovered that some people actually rely on the buggy behaviour. Opps: ever since, we haven't been able to decide whether to leave the bug in, or fix it. Unfortunately, nightlies and stable releases behave differently.
