Syntax: IF~Condition~EXIT is fine, space is almsot always optional in Weimer-land.

The period is not currently a valid label character, but it will be in the next release.

It is important conceptually to separate difficulties with Infinity Engine scripting from difficulties with WeiDU. Questions like "what is a global variable" are all about IE Scripting. We're happy to answer them here, but you should note that WeiDU doesn't care at all what you put ~inside tildes~. It passes it verbatim to the game engine which interprets it later.

If you really want us to debug your D file, do the following things:
(1) Post the text of the D file here (in a CODE block, say)
(2) Post the exact complete output of WeiDU as well (cut and paste from the shell). In particular, do not "sort of kind of copy what you think are the important bits" -- copy it all.

We should be able to resolve problems rapidly.

Here it is. When this is sorted out, I'll get the rest done

IF ~~ THEN REPLY ~Sure. You look like you can take care of yourself too. I would be happy to have you keep me company~ GOTO Check
IF ~~ THEN REPLY ~Alright, but I aren't the kind of woman you think I am~ GOTO Upset

Line 46:

IF ~~ THEN DO ~EscapeArea()~

needs an "EXIT" at the end.

Same with lines 75 and 81 and 94 and 106 *and* 118:

IF ~~ THEN DO ~SetGlobal("YseraJoined","LOCALS",1) JoinParty()~

*Every* transition needs to end in either EXIT, GOTO or EXTERN. Infinity Engine Rules, sorry.

Fixing these causes your D file to compile.

By the way, I *highly* recommend *against* using "Reply" as a state label. It's very close to a WeiDU keyword.

Thanks it worked!

Anyway, just out of interest, is it pronounced Vee-do, Vie-du, wee-du, or wei-du

[Gospel]

Me'sa say "Way-Dew" :D

Dew is like a bunny's name! *purrs* :)
