Hi everyone,
I didn't specify I was autsitic and took directions very literally, which might have been part of the problem,
but I did specify I was approaching the usage a free game engine, called "Castle Game Engine" that can be downloaded right here, from the perspective of an absolute beginner that doesn't know the ins and outs of the particular language's details, but knows in general that "var" means variable, or "begin" and "end" begin and end a specific block of code, and they need to happen for the code to work compared to multi line blocks.
When I would ask for help in this particular thread, I got good responses initially, but on the last pages here and here, I was getting more and more elitist responses by the so-called "helpers", even after I pointed out the compiler wouldn't be specific enough about what the problem actually was, so how the heck could I learn if no one was willing to actually explain anything to me clearly?
I get that for example, in the last two pages I cited, that the procedure was invalid because I didn't do it in the correct order, but it should have explained it was because I didn't do it in the correct order, rather than just saying "invalid procedure" and forcing me to randomly guess the actual reason why, especially because I followed the correct formatting for defining the procedure on the line where I declare the procedure itself, and that is where the message says the error is.
This was something I brought up in my final posts on the very last page.
Does anyone with professional insider knowledge/experience with the Castle Game Engine want to help me, as it is clear that they just want to keep referring me to the manual/telling me to RTFM even when I point out the manual doesn't actually clarify the kinds of issues I have, as the errors are always either extremely vague or contradicting what the examples and manual tell me to do directly?
