Title: Cannot compile a second Room script
Post by: DaLeroy on June 14, 2003, 08:29:19 PM

Hi guys

I've just stumbled upon this EXCELLENT program and have been playing around with it.  I have come upon one small problem however.  I cannot compile my second room script.  If I follow the instructions in the tutorial, I get this error message when I try to compile rm003.sc.

"[Error]: Unable to open vocab.000 for reading!"

And it fails to compile.  Any idea why this is?  

Thanking you very much in advance

Leon

Execute the script editor by double clicking on a script in the explorer then create the new script (room 2), rather than clicking on the "Script" editor icon on the main toolbar then creating the new script.

SS 3.00-3.01 treats the Script editor executed by clicking on the "Script" editor icon on the main toolbar as a stand alone editor for lose files, where as the Script Editor executed from within the explorer is an editor for the game's scripts.

As a question on this, then, let us say that you did use the stand-alone Script Editor (via the main toolbar). How do you get that loose script into the current game? (I am assuming there must be some way to "import" it in. I would guess "Add Resource" but that does not seem to work.)
