Hi folks, I have this bit of code:

	set recallme to zzzbackpackrecallscript.recallme	if ( recallme )		set recallme to 0		set zzzbackpackrecallscript.recallme to 0		backpackref.moveto player	endif

And I am getting erros on the "set" command line. zzzbackpackrecallscript exists, and is saved, along with the plugin..... That part is in place. However, when I try to compile this script, I get two errors.

First: I get "unknown variable or function 'recallme'

Second: Is a syntax error for set command.

what am I doing wrong here, and secondly, can I set a variable in another script, from this one?

Um is that other script a quest script and attached to an active quest? You have to use the questname instead of the scriptname. Set variable to questname.othervariable Variables and references from other scripts can't be used if they are not quest scripts.

Its an object script, attached to a ring. I take it it isn't going to be that easy huh?

Well you can make a separate quest script with shared variables between the two scripts. Object scripts can change variables in quest scripts.

That sounds like a better plan. Will give that a shot.

Ok, fixed the first problem, now, on to the next.......

	if (zzzbackpackquest.recallme == 1)		printc "recall is 1"		if (player.getitemcount backpackref == 0)			printc "moving backpack"			set zzzbackpackquest.recallme to 0			backpackgroundref.moveto player, 256,0,20		endif	endif

both if loops print their messages to the console.... so, they ARE executing, however...... the backpack never moves.... There is an ondrop block that sets backpackgroundref to getself, when you boot the backpack out of inventory.

What am I missing here??

Object art and collision fails to move correctly with a moveTo call. Try disabling the backpack first, call moveTo and finally reenable it.

Thanks ShadeMe. That is exactly what I had to do. (and not do all three in the same frame either.....) although, MoveTo was kinda random in its positioning, so, had to address that as well. It seems to be dialed in now, and just awaits some further testing to verify that it is all reliable.
