So... what's the problem? Or do you want our resident psychic to field this one?

onto my first problem;
script, door, begin
if, (npc at spot (14,11,2) or, check tag (2))
then,
begin
write map block (14,10,15,1)
write map block (14,9,15,1)
write map block (14,8,15,1)
write map block (14,7,15,1)
write map block (14,6,15,1)
write map block (14,5,15,1)
write map block (14,4,15,1)
write map block (14,3,15,1)
write map block (14,2,18,1)
write map block (15,2,16,1)
write map block (16,2,16,1)
write map block (17,2,9,1))
end |
Looks like an extra parenthesis to me.
It's really a lot cleaner to use then() than then, begin, end IMO. Makes it harder to miss stuff like this.

hm.
I'm not familiar with the way you've done this:
if, (npc at spot (14,11,2) or, check tag (2))
Could the comma after "if" be the problem?
You would also need a comma before "or." |

Can you copy & paste the errors you are getting?

Here's an idea... Did you get the latest HSPEAK nightly?

Considering there's only 33 lines here, I can only assume you didn't use:
| Code: | | include, plotscr.hsd |
in your script.
Without plotscr.hsd, the compiler has no idea what any of the commands are.

Wait, what made you use "npc at spot (14,11,2)"? This asks "what is the reference of the 3rd NPC at 14,11?". Maybe this is what you want, but it seems suspicious.
Since it returns an NPC reference, or zero if there is no NPC, and apparently you want to know whether there are at least 3 NPCs on that tile, you should really write "npc at spot (14,11,2) <> 0", or much better, "npc at spot (14,11,get count) >= 3"
You should remember that "or", "and" and "xor" are bitwise operators. They combines the bits, not the truth values, of their left and right operands. This only does what you think it does for values that are either true or false. You can always get away with this when using "or", but remember that some commands like npcatspot return numbers, not truth values (0 and 1).

You would also need a comma before "or." |
Every ( and ) (as well each math operator) has implicit commas around them, and the complier ignores duplicate commas, which is why this is allowed (and also why blank lines are allowed).
If you want to copy text out of a Windows console window, right click on the window, select "Mark" and then drag a box around the text you want and press enter.

Try something like
| Code: |
if(NPC ID(NPC at spot(14,11)) == 2) then, begin
