"What... does... proc... mean...?!"
*dies* Seriously though, go read a tutorial. If you don't even know what a proc is, you either have a really bad memory or never learnt DM in the first place. | |

WHEN I TRY TO PLAY MY GAME I GET THIS ERROR Hey, well lets start frmo the beginning here. You're having a "bad icon operation" and the proc (procedure) that is causing this is one you have created called CreateNewCharacter. To find this procedure, you will have to go to your "tree" which has all the files for your current project. The procedure is located in a file called new_char_handling.dm and it is found on line 691. The easy way to finding that procedure within that file is to open the file in Dream Maker, and instead of scrolling down looking for it, do the following steps: Step 1: On the menu bar at the top of your Dream Maker application you have the following choices: File | Edit | Options | Build | Window | Help You need to click on the Edit choice. Step 2: After clicking on the Edit choice on the menu bar, you get another menu list that drops down, that list has the following: Undo Redo Cut Copy Paste Delete Select All Find... Find Next Advanced Find/Replace... Goto... What you need to select out of them is Goto.... After selecting this you get a popup window. This window looks like this:  Where you have the highlighted number 1, you need to change it so it shows 691. Step 3: After pressing Ok you should have jumped to your procedure. The procedures path should go as follows, it can be displayed within your coding file in either of these two styles: Style 1:
mob/other/choosing_character/proc/CreateNewCharacter
Style 2: mob Once you are at your procedure, I would like you to copy the whole procedure coding that is pieced together with the CreateNewCharacter procedure. Once you have copied it, paste it in here, if it is too large or looks to large to paste on the BYOND Forums, send me an e-mail with the copied procedure to a href"mailto:[email protected]?Subject="Login%20Help ">[email protected]. Hope this is enough information to help you get yourself partially sorted out for now :) --Lee | |
