Here's my script.

%DEFENSE := %BASEDEF + %HELMET + %GLOVES + %BODY + %SHOES

%MONATK1 := %BASEATK1 - %DEFENSE -1 * 1D3 * %RANDOM + (1D2 - 1)
%MONATK2 := %BASEATK2 - %DEFENSE -1 * 1D3 * %RANDOM + (1D2 - 1)
%MONATK3 := %BASEATK3 - %DEFENSE -1 * 1D3 * %RANDOM + (1D2 - 1)
%ATTACK := %WEAPON + %BASEATK - %MONDEF1 -1 * 1D3 * %RANDOM + (1D2 - 1)
%ATTACK := %WEAPON + %BASEATK - %MONDEF2 -1 * 1D3 * %RANDOM + (1D2 - 1)
%ATTACK := %WEAPON + %BASEATK - %MONDEF3 -1 * 1D3 * %RANDOM + (1D2 - 1)

IF %EXPERIENCE > 0 THEN
BEGIN
IF %LEVEL = 1 THEN
BEGIN
%LEVEL := %LEVEL + 1
%ATTACK := %BASEATTACK + 2
%DEFENSE := %BASEDEF + 1
%MAGIC := %MAGIC + 1
%MAGICDEF := %MAGIC + 1
%EXPERIENCE := %EXPERIENCE - 39 - 1D21
END

IF %LEVEL = 2 THEN
BEGIN
%LEVEL := %LEVEL + 1
%ATTACK := %BASEATTACK + 2
%BASEDEF := %BASEDEF + 2
%MAGIC := %MAGIC + 1
%MAGICDEF := %MAGICDEF + 1
%EXPERIENCE := %EXPERIENCE - 174 + 1D51
END

END

After those are fixed, I get a few more and eventually a thing saying it can't understand EOF.

This is obviously a huge bug in the system and I cannot edit my script w/o deleting it.

---Also, I'm currently (as a freshman) in Basics to Computer Programming.  I'll have a few more ideas on how scripting can work.  I've also understood why you have the page scripts.

get rid of the "BEGIN" and "END" words, there is no point in using them because i want you to edit it to say this:

----THIS IS YOUR CURRENT CODE (for my reference while i type, so i dont need to keep scrolling)----

IF %EXPERIENCE > 0 THEN
BEGIN
IF %LEVEL = 1 THEN
BEGIN
%LEVEL := %LEVEL + 1
%ATTACK := %BASEATTACK + 2
%DEFENSE := %BASEDEF + 1
%MAGIC := %MAGIC + 1
%MAGICDEF := %MAGIC + 1
%EXPERIENCE := %EXPERIENCE - 39 - 1D21
END

IF %LEVEL = 2 THEN
BEGIN
%LEVEL := %LEVEL + 1
%ATTACK := %BASEATTACK + 2
%BASEDEF := %BASEDEF + 2
%MAGIC := %MAGIC + 1
%MAGICDEF := %MAGICDEF + 1
%EXPERIENCE := %EXPERIENCE - 174 + 1D51
END

END

-----DO THIS -----

IF %EXPERIENCE > 0 AND %LEVEL = 1 THEN
--ADD IN STUFF IN GREEN--

IF %EXPERIENCE > 0 AND %LEVEL = 2 THEN
--ADD IN STUFF IN YELLOW--

The BEGIN and END stuff, is basically for YOU, so that you are organized, but you do not need them and those errors COULD mean that they have not been programmed into the compiler yet...

or if you want to keep it under one IF statement (though this will be a nested IF statement, sort of an ELSE IF statement)

--- put the following after the ADD STUFF IN GREEN --

ELSE IF %EXPERIENCE > 0 AND %LEVEL = 2 THEN
--ADD IN STUFF IN YELLOW--

so basically change that line to say ELSE...

im sorry, there are still errors with the IF statements, this must be a bug as you said, nevertheless, the above code is a much better variation because it is more organized, not "spagghetti code"... just my suggestion of course...

Wow! you're really gettig into this. Aweome!

I ran your script through the Grammar Validator and it passes OK, so it's definitely a bug on my end. I will run the parser on my end and see what's going on. Good find though.

o btw, BASEATTACK and BASEATK (i think thats waht you wrote, or was it BASEATCK, anyways...) are too different variables, keep this in mind havac!

It looks like the BEGIN/END block is completely broken. This script should pass:

BEGIN
 %SCORE := 1
END

This makes it easier for me to fix I suppose :-).

lol, hmmm, maybe you should try passing all of havacs code :P, anyways, hope its an easy fix!
