Hello all,

I have tried the following script:

scn 1ntfsTestLoopScriptshort doonceBegin GameModeLabel 1if doonce < 200	Label 2	if doonce < 100		set doonce to doonce + 1	goto 2	endifgoto 1endifend

and the game crashes as soon as the script begins.

Is it impossible to achieve a nested loop even with FOSE or am I missing something? :brokencomputer:

Odd. What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Besides the whole loop.

Well, I have written a pretty complex ref-walk script where every ref-walked actor performs his own ref-walk. I could do it with a script effect or a form list but this would be the most reliable way (and I'd have to rewrite the script :banghead:)

in this case its a logic mistake, doonce is only incremented in the inner loop, which requires it to be <100. So once its 100, the loop2 will no longer run, but loop1 runs until its 200, which will be forever.

omg, I shouldn't write scripts after midnight :banghead: Am I blind or what? I'll have to look for the crashing reason elsewhere. Thnx :celebration:

The effect you're going to get is the game freezing because there is no way out of the GOTO 1 outer loop. You don't need to look any further for the crashing reason.

In my case (my big script), it was due to multiple getFirstRef/getNextRef calls within the same script. Seems that FOSE supports only one reference iterator in a script at a time

I've done two ref walks for different things in the same quest script where both run every iteration - but the loops were not nested, nor were the loops intersecting in such a way that the GetFirstRef/GetNextRef pairs were crossing. In other words, only one of them was active at a time.
