This is a compilation of the old system into a single score. There were 4 that made this score of 10.00 then rounded to 10.

For those that are still confused, the offending line

location lLocation = GetLocation(GetObjectByTag(NW_WAYPOINT001));

should read

location lLocation = GetLocation(GetObjectByTag("NW_WAYPOINT001"));

"I later realized there was supposed to be quotations around the waypoint tag"

Even if you do that it still doesn't work...

it should actually have "GetLocation" instead of "Get" there i was mid edit when i copied it; but it still doesnt work.

ive tried to create the script in the tutorial and get a

24/08/2003 23:14:48: Error. 'spawncreature' did not compile.
spawncreature.nss(5): ERROR: PARSING VARIABLE LIST

and it highlights the line with the get location stuff on...

void main()
{
int nObjectType = OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE;
string sTemplate = "nw_drgred003"
location lLocation = Get(GetObjectByTag(NW_WAYPOINT001));
int bUseAnimation = TRUE;
CreateObject(nObjectType, sTemplate, lLocation, bUseAnimation);
}

what am i doing wrong?

Great tutorial for newbie scripters like me, but there was an error that kept coming when I tried to create an object using the script. I later realized there was supposed to be quotations around the waypoint tag, which were absent in the example. Otherwise, these are great tutorials. Thanks a lot!

Contrary to this tutorial, IMHO the quickest way to get a resref is to open the View->Show Preview Window window after selecting the creature...
