Read what the error says, undefined var. You did not define a var. You can figure that out yourself easily as I rather not give you the exact answer since this isn't your snippet.

It is better to read the DMGuide than to "steal" someones work.

Apparently what you currently are doing is not helping you out if you can not define a var. Open up dreammaker, press F1 and type var.

You don't learn by copying code. You learn by doing a proper tutorial.

If you aren't willing or able to do this, consider a new hobby.

I don't care. Do the tutorials. There is literally nothing more basic than this.
