Orientation Problems

[gabeswarr]

Hello!

I'm just starting with NESmaker. I'm working through the Orientation doc and I've encountered 2 problems:

1. pg 209- I confirmed that the script doHandleHurtMonster is defined, but it just has no effect on the monster

2. pg 217- I can no longer complile my game because I keep getting an unknown label warning. In the code, the unknown label is myKeys.

Please help! I'm just trying to work through the orientation to learn.

Thanks!
Gabe

1. Make sure you are opening the file through the script editor. If you are, there are some modules that use code in the handle player hurt scripts that affect the monsters.
2. The error is likely because you have a variable "myKeys" written into your code, but not defined the same. Check your user variables in your script editor to make sure it is defined exactly as you are writing it in your code, upper and lowercase matter.

Hope that helps

Are you following the Orientation doc (pdf) file only? I'd suggest to also follow the tutorial videos while you're working.

1. I don't know about any other script, I'm using exactly what's in the tutorial files and the orientation doc.
2. I didn't change any script at all, this is scrpt from the tutorial files. Someone might want to update the script so someone like me doesn't get confused or hit this roadblock.

I was only following the orientation doc. I think it's outdated at this point. I'm going to stop following it an only use the videos. Maybe update the orientation docs or drop them all together?

Is there an actual doc? Not one that has an orientation?

All the doc and tutorial videos from that page should be the current ones:

LEARN | Nesmaker

Also, I'd suggest to keep going... sometimes the compilation errors are fixed by scripts you will assigned or set later in the tutorials.

Thanks! I'll try this. It totally derailed me. I'll let you know if it works.

 

[gabeswarr]

Yeah, sorry everyone, I am completely lost. I can't keep going because I can't compile at all and I'm getting all kinds of new errors. I'm starting over again from scratch. I'll let you know if I run into the same problem.

Thank you this worked, But now I have a brand new problem.

Now, the bullets just don't disappear when they hit a solid object, they just stick there. The "destroyMeOnSolid" script is not working

Please, any help would be great! I'm just trying to get through the orientation doc! Thank you!
