So how are we gonna solve this or these problems....the UNTERMINATED!!!! That needs to be terminated? Maybe you zookeeper for a favor attach the next post your working Arimatheans.cfg....Ill just make the scenarios....

The latest version of the campaign file that you posted works. The bug is very likely in your scenario file(s). The scenarios get "read in" inside the #ifdef, that's why the error is traced back to the #ifdef.

So what am I to do with my scenarios or ifdef? Maybe you should attach here your working cfg...

I don't know anything about your scenarios. And I don't attach a working campaign .cfg, because you've already posted one.

dark_cleou · Post by **dark_cleou** » January 12th, 2006, 11:45 am

Well the scenario is nice but i suggest you to make an Arimatheans.cfg like in my format and attach the Arimatheans.cfg here for you said you tested the Arimatheans.cfg in your computer and it works well...

No. Understand what people tell you when you ask for help and at least give a reason if you don't do what you're told, and you might have a chance of getting help in the future, too.

ok this scenario is just simple...when my campaign is now working I will now add additional effects and campaigns...

Quote the map in map_data.

Code: Select all

turns=unlimited

Invalid.

Code: Select all

description= _ "Death of Absel"
		  "Death of Numrif"
		  "Death of Keilenz"

Wrong.

I suggest you find about what exactly is wrong with these yourself, you'll learn more that way. And you'll need to learn, because these are very elementary errors.

dark_cleou · Post by **dark_cleou** » January 12th, 2006, 12:12 pm

But the invalid here in my scenario doesn't affect the #ifdef at all...all i see in the error is the unterminated #ifdef...not these invalid things...all i want is to see in the campaign list my campaign...I don't care about its content...

Post by **zookeeper** » January 12th, 2006, 12:19 pm

You still have something wrong then. Look at other campaigns and see how they do things.

PS. I'm done with this thread.

dark_cleou · Post by **dark_cleou** » January 12th, 2006, 12:29 pm

Oh yes...thanks a LOT for your great supports and replies...but once more, if you tried to try the Arimatheans.cfg in your computer and it is working, better attach the file here in the forum...that's the last help i can get from you...

You misunderstand.

THE ERRORS IN YOUR SCENARIO ARE CAUSING THE UNTERMINATED #IFDEF ERROR.

It's just how the WML parser works.

dark_cleou · Post by **dark_cleou** » January 24th, 2006, 11:32 am

So can somebody figure out what is zookeeper saying about in the scenario...what does he mean of the invalid map or the invalid descriptions..? The campaign scenario is there

I would rather take {@campaigns/Arimatheans}, without the slash.

Have you ever looked at the create pages?

Or just spy out the other campaigns.

Steelclad Brian · Post by **Steelclad Brian** » January 24th, 2006, 11:53 pm

WML error messages are very misleading. While I absolutely love the WML scripting system the devs have developed, the error message system is still imprecise and can imply very incorrect conclusions to the inexperienced. I nearly had a fit trying to debug something that the game told me was in Scenario 1, when it was really a conflicting macro from Scenario 3's text file. Until you thoroughly understand how WML is processed you can't just take a statement and interpret it with 100% certainty.

So, your scenario file has one or more errors in it. You need to find them and fix them. The incredibly helpful and nice people here will help you find them if you'd like, but only if you work with them. These guys know more about WML then you - take their suggestions seriously and you'll be much closer to solving your problem.

EDIT: See I had the exact same problem and finally figured out what was wrong. It kept telling me scenario 1 was broken and wouldn't load, but I tracked down my last addition to scenario 3 (these two scenarios really don't seem to like each other) and I found I had a message with an unterminated ". Unterminated stuff seems to be the number one most confusing error to debug - it's much better to examine the stuff you've most recently added then to just blindly pursue line-numbers and file names.

Also if I can give some general programming advice: start small, test what you did, and then expand toward your final product. If you have a scenario with 6 sides, with 20 events, start by defining the 6 sides and 1 or 2 events. When that works start adding more events, and always test immediately afterwords.
