SCRIPT ERRORS you just can't seem to fix!

Do you have an overlay that you are removing in the script? When I got that error (literally just now, lol), it was because I used remove instead of clear on an overlay.

why can’t we use remove it worked before, did they change the formatting?

They may have. You are right in that it didn’t used to give an error (and I think it removed the overlay), but now it only wants @overlay OVERLAY clear.

ok thanks :slight_smile:

Hi Dara,

I don’t understand why I got animation properties error. I got all corrects scripts by last week and there is fine. I change a backgrounds and add music and sounds as wells. I save preview and i’m checking on all scripts, suddenly my scripts say animation properties errors… {;_;}

A lot of people have been getting this error message today. It looks like the Episode team removed the command “remove overlay OVERLAY” and now the only command that works is “overlay OVERLAY clear”

So if you have used the “remove overlay OVERLAY” code anywhere in your script, change it to “overlay OVERLAY clear”

I was working on my story and this error showed up out of nowhere, but I never used any overlays! Can someone please help me!

If you read the replies above, you can find your answer :wink:

Ow I see now. Thank you!

Thanks You SO MUCH! Dara! I’m really appreciate. It’s working now :slight_smile:

Ok, so I have this error and it won’t let me preview my story at all!!
It says: ‘ANIMATIONPROPERTIES’ and i can’t figure out what is wrong…

I read what you said above but I didn’t use the remover overlay command

Hello I am trying to publish my episode but it says I have script errors and they are all spelling. For some reason it’s counting all my last names (ex:Darkwood) as misspelled. Is this going to inhibit my episode from being able to be published?

Spelling errors don’t affect your story in any way. They’re just words that the system doesn’t recognize. You can ignore them.

Gain names cannot have spaces in them. They can only contain letters, numbers, and/or underscores. So change gain chose_option 1 to gain chose_option_1 with an underscore betwen “option” and “1”, then fix all the other gain names the same way.

ok thanks so much I wasn’t sure because the guideline says no errors. Also what is the use on profanity it wasn’t really clear to me.

You can use them, you just cannot use them excessively. No more than 5 f-words per episode.

ohhhhhhh thank you it makes sense now tysm!! :grin::slightly_smiling_face:

I don’t understand :tired_face::tired_face:

Honestly I’m not sure. It’s a really new error that just started popping up yesterday. You’re gonna have to look through your script carefully and check to see if you have any errors, specifically for overlay animations.
